The bench grinder motor that powers my Multitool belt grinder lost its blue smoke so I purchased a new bench grinder.
When I fitted up the frame to the new motor I manged to push the pulley on too far past the suggested installation specs. To correct the misalignment I now need to pull the drive wheel back off the 16mm grinder spindle. As the pulley ran spot on in the last one I am loathe to use screwdrivers etc. against frame to lever it out.
The pulley wheel on its nylon spacer is stuck like poo to a wet blanket and refuses to be screwed off in the same way I removed it from the dead motor.
Its a 20 + year old model and quite different from the current one, in as far as the pulley/drive wheel is made completely different from the current model. It has a small circular plate 30mm od in diameter with 3 threaded mounting holes.
I am not sure what the thread is. Its is a fairly coarse pitch and metric does not want to start. I tried unc and its no go there either.
I am surmising it may be a 3/16 Whitworth thread but have no Whitworth thread to try in it.. Does anyone who has an older Multi Tool, know what the thread might be.
I have sent an inquiry off to PA the manufacturer but won't know until they reply.
Thanks
