tidy dartsyeah its just pushed on,i could get a picture of it in bits for you tomorrow
On our vicon, it was threaded on anti-clockwise. Cut a slot in a pipe to fit over a long bolt in the hole for the agitator, welded a nut to the other end of pipe, got an assistant to hold the disc with welding gloves on:whistling:, assisted by a block of wood, and she came off after a few attempts. I dont know a bout the kuhn though.
bearings are bearings,you should know thatNo wonder the spreader was so cheap headcase! Any luck selling the Vicon?

not so bad, a little knowledge goes a long way, as you say, if you clouted it the wrong way it could turn out to be a big job.didnt like the idea of clouting it through the gears so
