It is time to replace the engine on my old Ings Edger with the 2 stroke Briggs & Stratton motor. My problem is how to remove the Blade bar/hub from the protruding end of the crankshaft. I have removed the two grub screws from the Bar Hub but it will not budge.I have tried heating the hub, prising with a long bar, locking the engine and rotating the Blade Bar 'clockwise' & anticlockwise, with an long extension to give extra leverage, with no success
Does anyone know how it is secured to the protruding crankshaft? It does not appear to be keyed.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks Oscar2
