Default RE: Pressing out shaft for changing ends

Make sure you undo ALL set screws and remove any circlips. Separate the bell from the rest of the motor. Use a vise, not a heavy hammer. Use appropriate sizes from your socket set to support the bell as you press the shaft out. You'll need a drift (maybe a short length of a broken drill shaft) to press the last of the shaft out of the bell.
