Sometimes they can be really stubborn to get off, don't try to force it or pry on it too much. I have been known to tap them back and forth using a hammer an a piece of wood, gentle taps...

So are you saying taping it on the sides? I can't really get behind it because of the heat shield. Sucker won't move

What heat shield? You mean the rear tin? Take it off.

Yep, the rear tin. That tin seems to be behind the screen that is attached to this hub correct? From what I can tell I can't pull off this tin till I remove the hub and screen. That's just how it looks but if you're saying it can be done I'll look again. First time at this for me so I'm sure I could have missed this.

No, you are correct. The hub has to come off first. I didn't know if yours was missing the screen. My bad. Try no to ruin the screen. They are still available, but expensive. Hard to find good used ones. Just keep trying.

For me this works well to remove flywheels. Use an air chisel with a blunt tip to vibrate the crank while applying light pressure to the back of the hub.

A video but not on a kohler removing flywheels the easy way - YouTube

I'd heat it with a propane torch. The aluminum will expand and off she comes. Used to have the do that to get the flywheels off and the bearings out of the cases on Bultaco motor cycles.

Yes, a narrow 1 by, put the end of it against the edge of the pulley and tap from one side and then the other... Back and forth. Be gentle and don't try to hurry.

Don't forget to take the nut off of the end of the shaft and look into the hole to make sure someone didn't put two nuts in there.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
