USING A SLIDE HAMMER PULLER SET
1
Check to make sure that you have all parts before
starting the process. Make sure the threads are
clean and will move freely.
2
Lock the jaws (1) on the gear with the locking
feature and slide the hammer handle (2) up the
shaft in the direction of the pull.
3
Slide the handle in a series of slides until the gear is
loose or comes off.
CARE OF PULLERS
1
Keep pullers clean at all times.
2
Do not grease or oil the gripping edges. This will
cause the tool to slip.
3
Clean all the tools after use and store so the threads
will not become damaged.
4
Make certain that attachments and adapters are
stored with the basic puller and that they do not
become separated.
5
Oil pullers after use and wipe clean before using
again.
6
When storing for long periods, apply a coat of rust-
preventive compound on the tools and store them in
a dry place.
