Lonny, I've never tried this but Jim S. posted this many years ago, what he called the "Chain & Yank" method:
<blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1>quote:</font>
Take a long chain and wrap it around the PTO pulley groove. Use a bolt and nut through the chain to tighten it into the groove. If all
the set screws are out, you should be able to whip the chain and the PTO clutch casting will come right off.
If not all screws are out, or if it's real stuck, then use a U-shaped loop of chain from one side of the piece fastened in the pulley groove to the
other. Then attach a chain to the center of that loop, and hook it to a second CC or truck. Chock the wheels and lock the brake of the sick CC,
then jerk the chain taught with yer pull machine. Last resort, but it works.
Best way to help it off is to spray Blaster from Wally World into each set screw hole and let it do its magic first.
Chain trick was learned from a helluva Cub Cadet man named McGiver. Don't see him on here much anymore.<!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote>
