Looking at how far back your chuck's jaws are, and how they essentially screw in and out...maybe when you back it all the way out, they're pressing against something and pressing off the chuck little by little...?

What model # is it? We might have one at work that I can look in the chuck to see what it should look like.

BTW, "all the internet" thingies tell you to clamp the chuck on ones like mine to a giant allen wrench, and use the wrench to spin the chuck on or off once the screw is out. Doubtful, but perhaps that will do something on yours.
