Full details
This Laser Tools Flywheel Puller (MPN 6352) is designed for motorcycle mechanics and enthusiasts who need to efficiently remove flywheels and alternators from crankshaft tapers. Its key benefit is its combination design, housing six common thread sizes in one tool, reducing the need for multiple pullers. A potential caveat is the requirement for specific lubrication to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the force screws.

FAQs
What is the primary use of this tool?
This tool is designed to extract motorcycle flywheels and alternators from the crankshaft taper.
How many thread sizes does this puller support?
It supports six common thread sizes: M14 x 1.5mm, M16 x 1.5mm, M18 x 1.5mm, M20 x 1.5mm, M24 x 1.0mm, and M27 x 1.0mm (left-hand thread).
What type of lubricant is recommended for the force screws?
Molybdenum disulphide grease is specifically recommended for lubricating the force screws to ensure low friction and prevent damage.
Does it come with a T-handle?
Yes, the tool is supplied with a T-handle for application and control.
Are the force screws prone to damage?
The force screws are equipped with low-friction centring balls to help prevent damage. However, proper lubrication and careful use are essential to maintain their condition.
Can this tool be used on car flywheels?
This tool is specifically designed for motorcycle flywheels and alternators. Car applications typically require different thread sizes and puller designs.
How often should I lubricate the force screws?
It is recommended to lubricate the force screws generously before each use, especially if the tool has been stored for a period.
Troubleshooting
Puller not engaging thread properly
Ensure you have selected the correct thread size for your motorcycle's flywheel/alternator. Clean any debris from the motorcycle's thread and the puller adapter.
Force screw is difficult to turn
Verify that the force screw is adequately lubricated with molybdenum disulphide grease. Check for any cross-threading or damage to the screw or the part it is engaging with.
Flywheel/alternator is stuck and not releasing
Apply steady, even pressure. Ensure the force screw is properly seated and lubricated. In stubborn cases, a very light tap on the T-handle *might* help, but proceed with caution to avoid damage. Check for any obstructions or secondary locking mechanisms.
Damage to force screw threads
This typically indicates a lack of lubrication or cross-threading. Always ensure the screw is well-greased and started straight. Inspect and clean threads regularly. If damaged, the force screw may need replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Identify the correct thread size on your motorcycle's flywheel or alternator.
- Select the corresponding threaded adapter on the Laser Tools Flywheel Puller.
- Screw the chosen adapter into the flywheel/alternator by hand until snug.
- Apply a generous amount of molybdenum disulphide grease to the force screw of the puller.
- Thread the lubricated force screw into the puller body, making sure it engages properly with the flywheel/alternator thread.
- Use the T-handle to slowly and steadily tighten the force screw. Apply even pressure.
- Continue tightening until the flywheel/alternator separates from the crankshaft taper.
Compatibility:
- The tool is designed for motorcycles and covers common thread sizes: M14 x 1.5mm, M16 x 1.5mm, M18 x 1.5mm, M20 x 1.5mm, M24 x 1.0mm, and M27 x 1.0mm (left-hand thread).
- Always verify the specific thread size required for your motorcycle model before use.
Care:
- After each use, clean the puller body, force screws, and T-handle with a clean cloth.
- Ensure all parts are dry before storage.
- Re-apply molybdenum disulphide grease to the force screw threads before the next use, especially if storing for extended periods.
- Store the tool in a dry environment to prevent rust or corrosion.
