I am going to assume thatyou are removing an old entirely useless wheel. My method takes two minutes. Put a hack saw blade in the sawsall and cut a slot in the hub, about 90 degress from the keyway. Doesn't even matter if you ding the threads a little. Saw down to the shaft, parallel to it. Put a chisel in the end and open it a little . Slide it off easy as pie. Toss it in the dumpster amd install new wheel.
If you don't have a sawsall you can use an angle grinder with cutoff wheel, or the air hispeed cutoff tool. I've tried all three and prefer the Makita saw.
It gets a lot of use around here. Just got done cutting 1/4 inch off the crank start housing so I can get the fan belt on and off.
And it's the go to tool for cutting off the exhaust pipe, leave a 1/2 inch sticking up to bend/hammer to curl the slotted piece in. Then cut a slot down the pipe to get the inside piece out.
