Watch step by step how to properly remove a chuck from a lathe, disassemble and reassemble the chuck, and then put it back in the lathe.
There are different reasons to remove a chuck and inspect the components. Maybe it is time to clean the chuck parts, or perhaps the machine crashed (and if the machine crashed, you better be inspecting the chuck components).
In this video, Matt Schmelzer from Northeast Wisconsin Technical College, shares some insider tips. Check out the most important places to check during a chuck component inspection. You'll also learn some tricks to disassemble and reassemble, the chuck along with removing and inserting properly into the lathe. Matt also shows which tools he uses throughout the process.
There are tools that you'll need to get the job done. For removing the chuck, you will need the following tools:
Shop crane
Metric hex keys: amzn.to/2YZOmOn
Piece of tubing
Eye bolt: amzn.to/3aVZNbT
Crescent wrench: amzn.to/30Fzwgn
Nut wrench: amzn.to/3aMUc7S
Here are the tools you'll need to disassemble the chuck components.
Blocks: amzn.to/3lSLVFV
Mallet: amzn.to/3n562zR
Hex keys: amzn.to/2YZOmOn
Gloves
Torque wrench: amzn.to/3o2FzEQ
Check ease grease: amzn.to/3vrfWQo
Matt also keeps a honing stone (amzn.to/2Xn33tM) on hand to buff our sharp edges or damaged surfaces.
