Good morning!
I have a diesel trailer mounted Mako 5408 compressor, during transport the silencer housing fell and broke 2 of the fan blades off. I've ordered a set of replacement blades but I'm not sure how to remove the flywheel. After removing the bolt I was surprised there was no square keyway but instead it appears to be soldered on. I have the puller to remove it but it won't budge. I'm also concerned with what the procedure is to put it back on without a keyway to keep it in place when it turns. I'm mechanically inclined but I'm the furthest thing from a compressor mechanic. I realize this may be a stupid question but I appreciate any insight. I've attached a photo. Thank you!
