1988SS 50 #1 Posted May 14, 2020 I can't loosen the blade holding nuts. I tried heat and penetrating oil. I wanted to sharpen and balance this deck attached to my, new to me, 95 314 8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,745 #2 Posted May 14, 2020 I use a Pneumatic Impact Hammer ...in Reverse, of course. What you DON'T want to do is damage the 3/4" shaft... Split the nut if you have to...the nut us easy to find...not the spindle shaft.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skrusins 128 #4 Posted May 15, 2020 Take the deck to a service station they pop it off in no time. They have a large compressor and a heavy impact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tom2p 2,394 #5 Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) agree impact gun is the way to go but I've never had a problem getting the nuts off you need a good wrench - long to provide leverage or long breaker bar with good socket Edited May 15, 2020 by tom2p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
