Default How do I remove a prop extension from the prop

I have a Sensenich aluminum prop with a 4" extension. They have been working together for 200 hours. I now need to separate them.

How does one go about getting them apart? I suppose a hammer, but what do I hammer on?

Thanks,
Duane

Default Pound th pins out

My manual says-- use a steel rod no bigger than your pins, use a 5lb hammer with alternating blows, do not **** the spacer, they are very tightby design.

**** naughty word means-(uneven) I suppose it could be naughty?

Without being naughty, you can read the Sensenich instructions here...
