Default Preventing drill bit slippage

I am using a 1/2" masonry bit in an old hammer-drill. At the
slightest catch, the bit slips, even to the point of coming out. It
uses the old screw thing to tighten.

I am thinking of grinding the bit up and down the bare spot. Any
other ideas?

replace the chuck with a new one.If the bit shank is damaged,get a new
bit.


Who woulda thought... :-)
