is she stuck on there? WD40 my friend and tap around the blade adapter with a ballpeen hammer. if that don't get it a little heat might do the trick, a little mind you, don't get the crank so hot that it damages the seal. might want to check your flywheel key. may have sheared. :wave: also apply some neverseez when you install the new one

wd-40 is just a water displacer.. PB blaster would fare much better...

If that doesn't work, do heat it up and do watch out as you can burn the bottom crank seal... but take candle wax and melt it down there... then try knocking it off.
