[QUOTE="maintenanceguy, post: 478673, member: 24227"] Clamp collars like your photo are used all the time to pull shafts. The power head is probably robust enough to survive the pulling but...I would look at how difficult it would be to remove the lower cowl or whatever is required to get access to the shaft splines and socket where it's stuck. I would very much prefer my pulling force to work against the shoulder of the splinned socket. Yanking on the shaft can break something. Actually pushing the shaft away from the splined socket is less likely to damage anything. [/QUOTE]
