Members sinpac Posted August 20, 2015 Members Report Posted August 20, 2015 How do I remove the handle from the drive pinion stud. I removed the bolt and I know there is a key in there. I tapped the handle with a nylon hammer in hopes of removing it, but it will ot come off. Is it possible there is a burr on the drive pinion stud cause from the handle slipping. You guys have any ideas? Chris Quote "It ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." - Rocky Balboa
Members Greenwood Posted August 21, 2015 Members Report Posted August 21, 2015 Hi Chris I had the same problem, used a puller to get crank off. then filed shaft nice and smooth. Solution: made a flat spot on shaft and drilled a dimple on flat spot, so set screw will sit. Tightened to prevent crank from turning. Problem solved.. You are working with cast.....easy on the hammer. Good Luck Leo. Quote

When I get it back I will be drill a dimple in the flat spot so the bolt will seat proper. Thanks for the idea. Chris Quote "It ain't about how hard you hit.
