I was trying to replace the 19-year-old motor on my A/C, but I couldn't get the fan blade off. After getting this tool, the fan blade came off effortlessly in just 5 minutes. I'm really happy with this purchase.

This really did the job. Pulled off my 17 year old heat pump fan blade assembly from the fan motor shaft with ease. No way it was coming off without it. Quality device ... built with heavy sturdy steel with many accessories provided. I'll probably use this only once, but made replacing the fan motor just a one hour job in all. Highly recommended.

The tool is not center but i think its on purpose. once you start screwing down it goes to center.It pop the fan blade right off in 5mins. Now getting the fan blade off the tool was a slight problem. Once I realize I had to release the side screws it loosen up and came off.

Product worked for me when I was in a jam with no A/C. Read on for the fun parts.If you need this product, you're probably a professional or you're a poor shmuck like me that has no A/C at the moment of puchase. This product saved my bacon as my wife was roasting in the summer sun with no A/C. I used this to remove the A/C FAN assembly from a 13 yr old AC motor. It was extra, extra stuck.Tips: They're all rated #1 because they all matter.1) when you order this product and before it arrives, begin soaking the target in PB Blaster or your favorite penetrating oil. Lightly tap it with a hammer to vibrate the oil as deep as possible. Repeat every couple of hours until the wrench comes in.1) The set screws that grip the fan assembly will slip if you do not tighten them very very well.1) The set screws WILL loosen as you begin to apply pressure with the screw bolt. STOP and fix this to avoid damage to the fan assembly (or target to be removed)1) AVOID lining up the set screws in line with your target set screw holes, as it slips a little here and there you can bugger your target and be unable to put set screws back in place on the new motor shaft. This can cost you a whole new fan assembly (or whatever part you're tugging on)1) Clean, Sand, File and clean the shaft again in the path that the frozen part will travel down. Do this BEFORE you start moving that part. It will save lots of frustration.1) Be patient, and remember to tighten those grabber set screws every couple of turns of the pressure screw bolt.Good luck.

first off, one of the set screws was so buggered on the end it would not thread, nor could it be fixed. They did include bolts of th same size, so I could use that as a replacement. Second, none of the tapped holes were tapped all the way and every hole had to be retapped so I cound use it. Third, all the tapped holes had burrs on inside of them, although you could see where they tried to deburr them by grinding the holes. Should a piece of this slag get into the threads when exiting, it can cause the threads on the set screw or the threads on the device to become damaged. And forh, the device is made up of a shaft with a ring around it and the set screw holes are tapped through them. This should be a closely fitted ring. Instead the outer ring is loosly fitted and they put a couple of tac welds to hold it in place. A better soultion would to be weld it all the way around. And last, the drive shaft (the pushing part) is made of a mild steel, which mushroomed on first use. This is designed to press down into the hardened steel of the motor shaft and has a point on it to keep it from drifting off to one side when tightening it. So much for using this tool a second time. I was able to get it to do its job, so for a home owner who may only use this once, it worked. If you are planning to use it more than that, spend a little extra and buy a better tool. In the end, you get what you paid for, and this was cheap.

Hardware is too flimsy. Good idea, poor execution. Pusher bolt end disintegrates and bends. Bolts that hold to the fan blade hub are a similar material and shear, enabling it to slip off before the shaft is pulled out. Save some money and use the drill and drill bits you should have if you got far enough to pull the fan off of a condenser or evaporator motor. I wasted 8 hours with this tool, and then spent 30 minutes drilling the motor shaft out allowing the motor to fall right off the blades of a squirrel cage blower. These guys should owe me money for how much time was wasted.

I ordered this tool because of the price I didn't want to spend a lot of money because I would not probably use but one time. I decided to attempt to fix my HVAC Condenser fan motor myself. I tried for two days to remove the fan blade from the old motor to no avail. After checking on line I found out that you need a fan blade puller. I checked on Amazon and found this tool at a low cost but with some negative reviews. but because of the price I decided to try it. The center bolt was a little off center but I adjusted the screws that you tighten around the fan blade bolt. I then screwed down the center bolt and it worked like a charm. It is a heavy solid tool, not the best made but it works. I would recommend.

Worked great to change my blower wheel. I own a lot of tools as I am an auto and truck mechanic. I needed this to change the blower wheel on the shop's ceiling mounted combo a/c furnace when I was changing the blower motor. It worked great but after just one use the tip of the forcing screw got very rounded and I can see how other components would wear out quickly. For the money, if you need it in a pinch and aren't going to use it daily, I think it's a great choice. I wouldn't count on it for daily professional use though. In that case I would buy a more expensive, more robust one.
