I am replacing the AC generator in a generator unit. The generator aux field coil shorted and I found a like unit with a good AC generator sub unit. The photo shows the harmaonic balancer / flywheel / pulley on the armature shaft. I have commonly been able to remove balancers with an air hammer on a nut screwed into the shaft. No luck on this armature.
The photo shows the bolt screwed into the armature, a small section of the armature, and the balancer. I am thinking heat applied to the balancer is the best way to go from here. Is this correct? Is there a better way?
There are 2 screw holes in the balancer / flywheel / pulley. Would a puller be better than heat?
Thanks in advance. Dan
