Woods Mower Problem

I think the previous owner of my Woods Belly Mower may have put locktite on the bolts that hold the blades on. Tried to take them off with a swing bar and socket, no success. Tried swing bar socket snipe and friend built like a gorilla, no success. Tried an impact wrench and a bigger impact wrench (both ways too), no success. Anything more I fear will break the bolts off. I don't necessarily need the blades off right now, as I can always sharpen them on it. They will have to come off someday. Maybe I'll have to remove spindles and all when someday comes. Any ideas? Another question: This mower is run off the pto of a Farmall C. In my opinion the mower is not running fast enough. Wondered what size pulley others used??

Look at the way your blades rotate. The bolts are probably LEFT HAND thread. They are threaded to sort of be self tightening. Most Woods mowers use the LH thread bolts, as I recall the only units using "regular" threads were the units for Cubs, some older Kubotas etc. that had PTOs that turned "backwards".

Kruss,Try heating the nut if possible, no more than dull red, do not allow heat to travel to blades, carrier, etc; have wet rags to disipate heat . It's amazing what a little heat can do. Good luck
