Blade Flange Removal/Installation
Correct removal or installation of the Inner Blade Flange or Flange requires a Flange Puller
(option Part Number 18503) as shown below.
WARNING
Follow instructions closely to prevent injury from flying Blade Flanges!
Because of tapered fit between Blade Flange and Spindle, 5-10 tons
of force is needed to release the inner flange. Parts and tools can
become dangerous projectiles if instructions are not followed properly.
