Re: How to remove pulley from CIM motor

1351's attack strategy:

Take the nut off of the tensioner screw. Nudge the tensioner off with a few blows of the hammer.

Take the clip off of the shaft. Use two screwdrivers to pry off the pully. As you get farther up, you'll need spacers. Combo wrenches around the shaft work well. The earlier attempts with a torch may or may not have affected the adhesive prior to the screwdriver operation.

If you only plan on using one of the motors, you can also pull the long tensioner screw off of the other one so that you have two on one motor. It seems like it might be a good way to mount it. However, we're unsure of the legality of this.
