DerekMorrissey 18 #1 Posted February 16, 2019 I have a 1962 32" rotary mower that I am pulling apart for a restoration but I cant seem to get these bevel gears off. Any help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,033 #4 Posted February 17, 2019 Try slamming that end of the shaft straight down on a block of hardwood. When the shaft comes to an abrupt stop the gear may keep going. There is a Woodruff key between the gear and shaft but the gear should slide off of it. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
