5-lb. Weight 2-Way Puller Head
3-Way Puller Head 3 Puller Arms
Nut & Bolt Set Adjusting Cone
The slide hammer set may be used for many different pulling jobs. A few of its uses include:
Bodywork: Slide hammer may be used for pulling dents from fenders, etc.
Drill a small hole through the metal inside the damaged area. Install the 2-piece nut and screw puller onto the slide hammer. Thread the screw firmly
into the hole. See figures (a) and (b). Move the weight on the slide hammer body to the rear sharply to pull dent outward. Drill additional holes and
repeat process until desired result is achieved.
Another body work option is the provided "fingertip" style puller, which can be hooked over the edge of damaged body parts and pulled with the slide
hammer. See figure (c).
Gears, Bearings and Seals: Slide hammer may be used for pulling gears, bearings and seals, etc. by using the puller arms and head. Using either the
2-way puller or the 3-way puller head as appropriate, attach puller arms to the puller head with the provided nuts and bolts. For inside pulls, the puller
arm jaws should be installed to the puller head facing outward, and the cone should be installed to the slide hammer with the concave surface facing
outward. Install the puller head to the slide hammer. Insert the puller jaws into the opening. See figure (d). Adjust the cone by threading it down so the
concave surface engages the tail ends of the puller jaws and begins to spread jaws apart. See figures (e). Tighten cone until the jaws are locked
securely behind the bearing or seal, etc. Move the weight on the slide hammer body to the rear sharply to remove the bearing, seal or gear. See figure (f).
Outside pulls are similar, except the position of the puller jaws should be reversed and the cone should be installed with the convex surface facing the
puller jaws. Another option is the provided fingertip "hook", which can be placed behind seals and grease retainers and pulled with the slide hammer.
FWD Axle Shafts: Axle shafts may be pulled from the transaxle using the box-like FWD axle shaft attachment. To use, drain transaxle. Remove front hub
and disconnect axle shaft using hub puller as outlined in manufacturer's vehicle servicing information. See figure (g).
Retain the axle nut for later use. Make sure any snap rings or bolts that may hold axle shaft into transaxle have been removed. Install the axle shaft
attachment by guiding the end of the axle shaft through the hole provided. Thread the axle nut removed earlier onto the end of the axle shaft. See
figure (h). Thread the slide hammer into nut welded to the slide hammer's axle shaft attachment. See figure (i). Move the weight on the slide hammer
body to the rear sharply to pull axle shaft from transaxle. Note that transaxle may leak fluid once axle shaft is removed.
