Not easy with out the correct tool (part # 19165) flywheel puller. It's only 7 or 8 bucks, but it can be done without one. Use a strap wrench or a friend with strong hands to hold the flywheel while removing the nut. Flywheel can then be pulled off. If seized onto crankshaft, DO NOT pry off with screwdriver or pry rod, you will damage the soft aluminum crankcase. Use penetrating oil and a slide puller or generic puller tool, but be warned that sudden impacts or jarring can break or knock the flywheel magnets loose!

The process is probably similar to what is described in this article. http://hubpages.com/hub/removing-outboard-flywheel

Who does Briggs and stratton contract to build their snapper mowers?

Briggs and Stratton does contract anyone to build mowers. The mower manufacturers contract Briggs and Stratton to build their engines (or whatever engine is on the unit). That is why you can have a Briggs and Stratton on most any type of mower. Same is true for Kohler, Tecumseh, etc. Not to say that the engine manufacturers do not build their own type of outdoor power tool but as the question states "snapper mower". Also keep in mind that if you have a snapper mower with a Briggs and Stratton engine and you need warranty work on the engine you need to go to an Authorized Briggs repair facility where as if you have a mower warranty then you need to go to an authorized repair facility for the mower manufacturer.
