Hs81t clutch drum and drive pinion removal

[jjll]

Hi

Trying to get the clutch drum and drive pinion off a hs81t

I have removed the circlip and am struggling to get the pinion and clutch drum out.

Are they threaded or will they press out?

I replaced the bearing on an 81r last week, there are two circlips, a smaller one and a larger one. Took a bit ok knocking with a socket to get bearing out ?

I’ve read that the r is different to the t, and could only locate one circlip. Unless it’s very well hidden?

2 clips seem to be on the sort with the clutch and cog all in 1...yours looks to be the single clip sort from your picture.

That’s what I’ve got in the first diagram. But can’t seem to break it down any further

Pinion on the 81T (trimmer) screws onto the drum if I remember correctly.  While the 81R (cutter) is a one piece drum - gear which is a press fit in the bearing with a circlip holding it in place.  And obviously another circlip holding the bearing into the housing. 

 

I've rebuilt loads of 81R's, but can't remember the last time I stripped a 81T, so sorry can't be much more help.
