Didn't Lubricate your Ariens Snowblower Split Axle? Here's how to fix it!

A stuck #ariens #snowblower #axle shaft can be a real headache. Luckily, here at small engine solutions, we have dealt with this situation before. This is a step by step way to #press the old axle shaft out in order to clean it and remove the #wheel easily.

how many Ton press to get it off?

[@smallenginesolutions]

Just a 10 ton will do it. Its more having to manipulate the shaft in order to do this. If the shafts freeze TOGETHER, forget it. This will only work on ejecting the shaft from either wheel.

thanks, my 6 year old ariens has the shaft stuck in the wheel hub. didnt know I was supposed to take these off . I did grease the augur shafts when I bought it and the diff fluid . the wheel did come off on the other side so I used anti seize and bearing grease on that one. looking to buy a bearing press but I dont expect to use it much.
