Hi - I picked up a used Skil classic router at a garage sale. I brought it home and used it and it works fine, but when I attempted to change the router bit in it I ran into a problem. I loosed the collet as much as it will go and bit still will not come out? I'm not familiar with routers, but everything i've seen online implies once the collet is loose, the bit should come out, but I can't get it out, even by gripping the end with pliers and pulling.
I'm guessing the bit has been in there a good year or two based on the previous owners stated use.
Has anyone encountered this before and is there a trick to getting the bit out?
