Recently, I purchased a Woods L59 mower that had been left outside unused for several years. I was hoping that I could free up the spindles and all would be OK. However, that was not the case, as the mower is very noisy due to the bad spindle bearings. I decided to try and replace the bearings in the spindles rather than buy complete spindle assemblies as recommended by Woods. It appears from the parts diagram that the only thing holding the spindle shaft in the housing is a sleeve with a roll pin on the top side of the spindle. Looks like once the roll pin is out, the shaft should press out the bottom and then the shaft seals and bearings can be reomoved and replaced. However, not the case!! I have a shop press with a 20 ton jack. I've pressed some really tough things with it, but that shaft will not move at all. I'm afraid to put any more pressure on it. What am I missing??? Has woods pressed all this together with an industrial strength press or is there another retainer in there?? Of course there is some rust on the shaft collar, but rust has never kept me from pressing parts apart before.
