Thanks for all the help. Might give it a go, kinda hesitant since its still has 3 years of warranty left.

I got a different chuck As per photo. Drill is purchased in New Zealand though.

I see There is no writing like that on my chuck....weird. I am guessing its not rhom

I initialy bought a 795, the chuck had wobble, I thought it was faulty. Took it back to the store, tried 5 others, and all were the same. Then decided to go for 796, same problem, but decided to keep it.

German made, and they wobble so much. There is definitely no writing on the chuck that would indicate what brand it is, at least on mine.

Was thinking of pick up this... costs almost as much as a brand new drill http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Rohm-EXTRA-RV-13mm-Metal-Keyless-Chuck-1-2-x-20-Steel-Single-Sleeve/172367259146?rt=nc&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20151029142714%26meid%3De52424b3874a4fe591f09fcc800cb115%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D172367256125&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 What is the brand of the metal chuck currently on 796? Thanks

Thank you all for your help. So, there is no actual reverse thread screw inside the chuck? Like you said, and going by the last photo, chuck can be undone by just turning it anticlockwise with enough force. I wonder where there is no screw holding the chuck anymore. Can you confirm please, since you have the chuck off, is the wobble issue because chuck is shit, or the axle is eccentric as well?

Thanks for the reply? Not sure if I understand this fully. So heat it up, and then just pull on it, until it comes out? There is not thread on it? Thanks

Hi all I have recently purchased a dewalt DCD 796. Great Drill but has some chuck wobble. I was wondering how to remove a chuck from this drill, in order to install a new better one. Thing is, the screw inside the chuck does not look standard to me, I mean its not hex...see photo attached. Does anyone know how to have the chuck removed? Thanks for your help!
