If you're behind the drill, like you're drilling something, the drill motor screws into the chuck, (turns to the right). So you want to put the chuck key on the right side of the chuck, (you're still behind it) and rap it fast and hard, in a downward motion, with a dead shot hammer. If it comes off, put a spot of anti-seize grease on the threads before assembling in case you want to take it apart again. I have several drill guides and 2 different size chucks and take the chuck off of my Makita all the time. P/S, I too live in a condo and have built Lowther Fidelio's this past summer. Boy the neighbor's complain, don't they?
