Is this spindle pressed in or was it put in with a magic spell?

I don't know. You might pull the pulley off and look for a snap ring under it. Or look on OWMM web site for some info. Tom

Well, that's another issue. The manual shows a pulley with an allen set, but no such beast on this. So I have no clue how it comes off either.

Looks like the bearings are just pressed in, to me. Generally, if they are going to use C-clips, they will be visible from the spindle side. Where's Dave Kumm? He might know.

I tried to post a picture from another site, I do think its going through. From picture it looks as spindle comes out from the back side and no snap ring installed. http://vintagemachinery.org/pubs/detail.aspx?id=726 Tom

Thank you! I will keep trying. Tough to avoid the "Big" hammer. :D (just kidding)
