Re: Best way to remove fisher price pinion???

I tried using the banebots puller last night as well and after dremelling off some of the pinion teeth just to get it to fit, we tried the puller, and it just bent.

Next I tried using a drill press, and put the banebots puller pin in the chuck, and tried pressing out the shaft and the drill press setup was just not rigid enough.

Finally, I had to take the motors to the machine shop at school and use their arbor press, which did work since it was a more rigid setup.

But, while I was using the drill press method, I accidentally slightly bent the shaft on one of the motors. Anyone have a link or know how to buy more?
