I don't use my DP350 much; maybe 20 times in the last 3 years. Today, I was using it to rough cut two large mortises using an extension and a forstner when the chuck just fell our of the machine.
A simple google search showed that I could rubber mallet the chuck back onto the spindle because it uses a Morse Taper. This isn't my favorite tool so I have no problem laying into it with a mallet. However, it doesn't seem to want to seat down all the way.
I've attached pictures. What can I do to get back to work?
Thanks for any help. I'll be back in about an hour.
