Ew350 gearbox bearing

[Neilj]

Hello all can anyone tell me which way to get the kickstart gear off to change the bearing please.photo attached.thanks neil

Neil,

Both the smaller nut that retains the spring and kickstart gear/ratchet and the larger nut which retains the bearing are normal right hand threads i.e. tighten clockwise on the main shaft I have. The  larger nut which retains the bearing may be quite tight due to the tightening action when the kick start is used.

Cheers

Hutch

Thanks does seem tight that’s why I thought I’d ask the question.Will try gentle warm and releasing fluid.cheers
