The first thing to do is remove the snap ring on the end of the crankshaft. The puller is made up of a half moon steel plate that slips between the block and the gear, a heavy steel bar that has bolts threaded through each end and that screw into the half moon piece, and a larger bolt that is threaded through the center of this plate. This bolt has a fairly broad end that contacts the center of the gear, and a hex head for a socket on the outside end. Using either an impact wrench or long bar on the socket, this bolt is screwed down until the gear is free of the crankshaft.

How do you get a dirt bike flywheel off with a puller?

Once you have taken the flywheel nut off screw in the puller into the external threads till it bottoms then start screwing in the bolt that will press on the crankshaft till the flywheel comes off. penatrating oil would be a good idea so would putting the bike in high gear and holding the rear brake so the flywheel stays still (probably have an assistant do that)

How do you remove the crankshaft drivebelt pulley on a 1994 z-28?

Remove anything that may obstruct pulley (belt, wheel, etc.). Your best bet is to use an impact gun to remove bolt in center of pulley (turn counter-clockwise and use safety goggles). After loosening bolt you need to use a harmonic puller to get pulley off crankshaft (do not use impact gun on puller). Tip: Unthread bolt about 1/4 inch from crank pulley then use puller, loosen puller and remove crank bolt a few more turns off crankshaft, then use puller again to slide crank pulley off crank again, keep repeating until it is off.
