Hi guys

Got a problem with getting the blade holder thingy off the shaft of my bushhog. It has a keyway with about a quarter inch square key in the shaft. I lost all the gear oil out of my gear box last weekend and things came to an abrupt halt. Seems like the bottom seal went bad. I cooled things down with some 30 wt oil and it just ran out the bottom of the gear box. so looks like I have to replace that and the bearing but can't that blade holder off the shaft. Any suggestions I would appreciate. A large bolt screws up into the shaft and I have it out but nothing will budge even using a gear puller and some penetrating oil -- am I missing something?

Thanks to all for your interest in my problem with my bushog. At this point in time the the problem still exists. I ve been putting penetrating oil in the keyway and on the shaft for about a week now and hammering the ---- out of it. My neighbor is coming with a torch to heat her up for me but ran out of oxygen so waiting for him to get that. When you work different shifts it's hard to get together to do much. Jacking it out seems to have been the best response but haven't tried it as yet - That might be a nice Sunday afternoon project. So still working on it but I know it will come off cause I ain't buying another bushog!

Thanks to all

Bob,
I have a Wood's MD172 and faced the same thing a couple of years ago(caught mine before the bearing went). I took a similar approach to Bill below. I removed the stumpjumper dish and blades leaving the heavy bar that the blades attach to. I suspended a piece of steel box tubing from the blade mount using chains then jacked it off with a hydraulic jack.

The only way I know of is heat, lots of it, Puller and big hammer, all at the same time. These are usually put on with lots of Thread locker on the shaft to keep them from waggling around. The manual says to do this. Since you have to replace the seal anyway, just drain the oil from the gearbox and leave the plug out when heating the crossarm/blade holder.
Good luck they can be a pain, took my friend and myself 4 hours to get one off once.

I don't have experience with the Woods product, so not for sure what your exact set up is. sounds like you will have to disassemble your gear box...as you do so, your blade holder should fall out with something to where you can get it to a shop and get it apart.

I got my stump jumper off by bolting a chain around the blades close to the stumpjumper. (Apply liberal amounts of kroil or some type of penetrating oil to the shaft.) Then took a small hyd. jack and placed it on the spindle and went to jacking. The chain got tighter than a banjo string, then the pulled the stumpjumper off. Good luck, hope it works for you.
