Hi everyone hope you're all doing well.
So I'll be working on a small lawn mower next week .
Customer needs to replace the blade holder (retainer lugs have snapped off) ,the part is similar to this in the uploaded image .
Now I've scribed a sort of unknown geometric figure around the middle hole .
There's no access for a puller .
And even if it would fit it will not work because ,it would push/pull on the same exact part .
I think to remember that a while ago I've seen a video where they used grease to push out a bearing.
The hole in the orange "UGF" is threaded so I'm thinking to fill the hole with grease or gear oil and push it using a bolt .
Or if it fails tighten the bolt and apply heat (I would like to avoid to use any heat on this thing because of the crankshaft seal underneath)
Any idea?
