morse 4 collet removal

[wallace]

Hi all, I have a new old piece of machinery, its a wadkin recessing machine. The tools have a morse 4 taper or have an adapter bushing which is morse 4. The machine has come with chuck fitted adapted by a bushing which has been in there for a gazillion years. I cant seem to find wedges that will fit. Any advice chaps.

Take a picture is your first job

Might have a sliding release sleeve (lifting up the sleeve moves ball bearings to release or lock)

Or failing that and you know it needs a drift, make one!

Is there a grub screw securing it?

Kind regards, Col.
