Drive Sprocket Removal
Step 1. Prevent the sprocket from rotating by inserting scrench
or screw driver though the holes in the sprocket and the hole in the saw body.
Step 2. Loosen the Trantorque® using a 7/8" box end (or adjustable) wrench.
NOTE: If Trantorque® is stuck, tap lightly with a hammer on nut to release
debris. If that is unsuccessful, apply penetrating oil to Trantorque. Next, slide
two (2) wedges, under the sprocket, one on each side of sprocket and
alternately tap the wedges equally until trantorque and sprocket loosen or
come free from shaft.
