some hardening around the edge.

Nice and easy. Take the spring off than take the bolt out with spacer that acts as a stop 17mm heads. Lift up making sure the uj is in the right place to do so insert bolt back in hole and rest the bearing carrier on this to aid support. If you want to take the whole thing of just a ring of 13mm headed bolts around to gear box or spur drive. Check the bearings In the top feed roller and if the feel iffy change them now as its a nightmare to do when they have gone.

i did mine with angle grinder about 4 yr ago because i had top one out for a bearing and did bottom one with little grinder from infeed chute and now they are about ready to be done again. i do remember noticing the difference afterwards.

Call Charles Walter of Arbrep Services as he can do that job easily. He is the chipper guru.
