how do you release the bit?

The bit tightening and untightening mechanism is different on this drill than ones I have used in the past. You can use the drill's motion by holding the black portion of the chuck. However, I do not do it that way, especially for tightening. The drill has an internal self-locking mechanism. So, if you start turning the chuck as if to manually loosen, it will lock and just turn it hard to loosen the bit. For tightening, it is the same, but in the other direction.

The bit is released by holding the black cylinder with one hand, Click the button to reverse the drill, hit the trigger lightly and it releases. It is fast and easy.

There is a keyless chuck. The front portion of the drill where the bit is loaded can be opened and closed by hand. You place the bit in the opening for the bit, then turn the chuck by hand, which tightens onto the drill bit and holds it in place.

Start by loosening the set screw then push on the release button. Otherwise I don't know.

Turn the cartridge to the left while holding the little black tab out to release the lock and pull upward. The cartridge should come out of the housing.

Hi David! The easiest way that I do it is to pull the release clip to the front of me. I can get it open easier that way. Hope this helps!

By pulling straight out on the bit holder it will release the locking pin. At which point you can install or change your drill bits or drive tools which ever you are using.

Pull to release, bit holder stays open to insert bit and then closes to hold the bit, quick and easy.

Just push in bit with some force. It will fit it snuggly. Pull out to remove.

Hi Louise,Amazon appearantly doesn't offer the bit-driver separately but any quality bit-driver should work. Noah

Give it a short twist to unlock the cap at the end of the handle and then pull it straight off. The bit carrier is actually attached to the cap.

Use a file. Took me about 10 minutes. I used a thin circle file and removed the small tab on the end of the pin and it should come right out.

Try to click on and off switch on the front of the drill or take off and then put back the bit.that might help.if not I'm afraid you got to return it;)

Pull the circular tab down/in the direction of the string tails. It'll unlock the mechanism and slide to loosen the string.

Just pop out the smaller side. Use your finger nail. It gets easier as you use it!

No release- just pull it out- it's just tight enough to hold it- it can be adjusted to almost any angle

Yes just press the release and reverse the ends. It comes with a #1 and #2 Philips, also has a flat head bit stored in the handle.
