Flywheel puller

A flywheel puller is a handy tool used to detach the flywheel of an engine. This flywheel is firmly attached to the engine shaft and is difficult to remove by hand. With a flywheel puller, you can safely and easily detach the flywheel, which can be useful for repairs or maintenance on the engine block. The tool makes the process easier and prevents damage to the engine.

How a flywheel puller works

A flywheel puller works by means of simple principles. It usually has two arms with hooks at the end. These hooks are placed under the flywheel, and when you pull the lever, force is exerted on the flywheel, causing it to gradually detach from the engine shaft.

Can you drive with a broken flywheel

No, it is not safe to drive with a broken flywheel on a scooter. The flywheel is an important part of the engine and plays a crucial role in regulating motion and timing. If the flywheel is broken, this can lead to major problems, such as poor engine performance, irregular engine running, or even complete failure. It is therefore strongly recommended not to drive with a broken flywheel and instead replace the flywheel to keep the scooter safe and functioning properly.

How to disassemble flywheel without a flywheel puller

If you don't have a flywheel puller and need to disassemble the flywheel, it is recommended to contact Jos Dijkman. Without the right tools and knowledge, removing a flywheel can cause damage to the engine. It is usually better to leave this to experienced mechanics.
