Hi there,
My encoder belt on my VM3 with the 12k inline spindle and TSC went recently, and it damaged the pulley on the spindle side as well. I have new parts ready to install, but I can't find an easy way to remove the pulley from the spindle! I assume it is pressed on. I have tried heating it, but can't get it to come off, only spin in place. Should I just hacksaw it off carefully and then press on the new one, or is there a better way to do this? I can't find anything online explaining the procedure.
