Default Cub 127 pto removal

My cub 127 blew up this past fall I found a donor tractor that has a nice running k301 it's a cub 125 , however the PTO in the 125 donor needs rebuilt and the PTO on my blown up 127 is good. I'm going to remove the PTO off the 127 and put it on the new motor. I cant figure out how to get a Allen wrench down into the hole that the set screws are in. The PTO shield is not lined up with the slotted tooth above the set screw hole. I don't want to strip out a set screw down there, forcing a wrench in there not square. Any tips ??

I tap the button with a soft hammer lightly while gripping the pulley with my hand to turn it to align the hole with slot.

You need to get it to turn until they line up. Make sure once you get it aligned to use plenty of penetrating oil on all of the set screws. there are 2 set screws in each hole. TAKE YOUR TIME!

Put a three jaw puller on in. Tighten the center lightly and turn it.

As mentioned, you can rotate the clutch until the cutouts line up. Lots of penetrating oil and take your time. If you rotate each set of set screws so they point upward, you can fill the hole with PB Blaster and let it soak.

#1, make sure you have a new or nearly new allen wrench as you don't want to have it slip and round out the set screw.
#2, a pin punch that just fits inside the set screw allen pocket, hit smartly with a hammer, usually jars it enough to loosen it, or help get it started.
Also a person can use a allen wrench cut off so it substitutes as a punch if you don't have one, holding it with a pair of vice grips, makes it easier on the fingers/hand while keeping turning tension on it while hitting.
If all fails, they can be drilled out but it is a pain, and a last resort.

If all else fails before drilling and it had not stripped yet, you can try an impact driver with correct Allen 3/8 socket.

Not an impact gun... impact driver that you hit with hammer

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.
