A quick-release coupler includes a rod having first and second sections. The first section includes an end for coupling with a pneumatic tool. The second section extends from the other end of the first section. A sleeve is slideably mounted around the rod and includes an end for releasably coupling a bit. The sleeve includes an axial bore having larger and smaller sections. The larger section has polygonal cross sections corresponding to polygonal cross sections of the first section. A radial bore is formed in the sleeve and in communication with the smaller section. A ball is moveably received in the radial bore and moveably received in a recess of the second section of the rod to releasably engage the sleeve with the bit. A spring is mounted in the larger section of the sleeve for biasing the sleeve towards the other end of the rod.
