As much i as don’t like messing with a puller, I think you should take a look at setup time if you are wanting to go solely off time, especially in the field. Yes, you probably got that one out quicker than a puller would have been put on it. However, you also had to get 3 blocks of wood, a big hammer, a socket, a punch, and the sds instead of just a puller. Most would use the lube and sandpaper either way so they cancel each other out. It takes time to drag all of that off the truck and then put it all back up. I don’t think starting from having got ready, to the time it comes out if a real comparison.
we have done it the same way for years. 5th generation plumbing, heating, cooling contractors in portsmouth va.. i do believe i have you beat age wise. 69 yr old still doing service. i still enjoy it and believe if i retire easy chair would take me away. Haha and i enjoy your channel.
Jam it brother Ted 🤦♂️ 😂 I got a couple motors I’ll get out the scrap pile next week, I’ll be gone until weds. I’ll try and get 2 done in the 2 min and 17 💪 BUT let’s be clear, I don’t use the puller on every job 🤣 there’s plenty of jobs where I don’t use it INCLUDING that Trane Wreck I just posted!!! Stay tuned
@KoolinwithKrauss You are out of your mind if you think that you are going to beat his time with a puller! First of all there is absolutely zero set up time involved, And secondly not only is a pneumatic hammer pushing on the shaft the vibrations from the pneumatic hammer is also going to break the bond between the shaft and the hub caused by the rust! Your problem was you don’t know what you don’t know so you have to take the L!
I think you have a great idea I have never owned a polar. But I do use the sandpaper PB power and a crescent wrench to turn it back and forth top loosen it up
I use the sand paper and the lube then i just take the crescent wrench and spin the shaft around and it spins right off. This was kinda quicker then i expected but being in an attic i would have all these tools to do the blower replacement. Lets keep it more realistic.
I have a puller, but rarely use it, but if I do need one, I'm glad that I have it. Because I have at one time or another had a wheel so bad that it wasn't moving at all and the puller did the job.
I have never used a puller in this situation! Just like Ted shows sand shaft a little oil , she will let go, no issues! 40 year tech here in Canada and seen a lot of rusty shafts especially condenser shafts!
Whipping out a rotary hammer instead of a blower wheel puller seems excessive. Most techs will not have this tool on the truck and generally it won’t be cordless if they do. Recommend a wire cup brush on the end if your drill and some pb blaster and give the shaft a twist with your wrench 8/10 it’ll come off the other times just use the puller.
Think there might be a price difference and room it takes up between a puller and a Milwaukee hammer drill. Lol. That's not what I call rusted bad either. I seen them so rusted that little bit of sanding wouldn't have done a thing. What is that a $500 hammer drill and a $200 bit. Lol.
I do it same way. Dont even need the jack hammer. I just sand it a lot more( make sure it’s super shiny everywhere ) & use Wd-40. ( wd-40 is better imo ) Give it a tap with a hammer & a punch. And out she falls. Maybe 30 seconds more sanding. Note : Ted u might be able to make even better time with a 4” grinder instead of sand paper.
@OcRefrigeration You do realize that sometimes the shaft freezes to the hub which means sanding this shaft shiny isn’t going to do a thing, Also using a 4 inch grinder is absolutely ridiculous unless you want to mar the shaft! And lastly WD-40 is definitely not the best choice, WD-40 does not even come close when compared to a penetrating oil like ZEP-45!
Love it! The only change you might make is to substitute a wire wheel for the sandpaper (less stuff to carry, and a wire wheel last a lot longer), but it's the same method. Curtis (HVAC GUY) does it your way too.
I have used your method of removing the blower motors from the blower wheels and let me say this. After I tried your method I have just thrown my puller away. Worst waste of money I have ever spent. Anti-DIY for the Win!!!
@thomasserovich9564 I don’t think you even know what you’re talking about, Because if you did you would have not called it a blade it is called a wheel or hamster wheel! Also how do you tell a customer that they are going to have to pay for a part that they do not need? If you knew anything about HVAC you would know that you cannot remove the wheel without removing the motor, Unless you want to disassemble the blower housing in which case it is now going to take even longer! You are talking out of your backend, I really hope you are not in this business because you just got schooled by an Master Certified Auto Tech!

Literally, lol. "Get it apart like a man."😂
😂 need more head to head competitions between you too.

Just pick a really bad one like I had…. And letter rip !!
@@TedCookHVAC I’ll see what I can do my man!!

Awesome. I have to try that always something new to learn.
It's fun teaching the young ones how we do stuff and why. Now if they would just listen, watch and learn instead of thinking they already know it all.
I think you have a great idea I have never owned a polar. But I do use the sandpaper PB power and a crescent wrench to turn it back and forth top loosen it up
Thank you Ted ,for demonstration how to removed the motor
Before the electric hammer I used a star drill. You are correct and time will show it. Thanks for your video. From an old teck!!!
I use the sand paper and the lube then i just take the crescent wrench and spin the shaft around and it spins right off. This was kinda quicker then i expected but being in an attic i would have all these tools to do the blower replacement. Lets keep it more realistic.
No body got a chance against them ole country boy's Ted. Once again you are the man.
I have a puller, but rarely use it, but if I do need one, I'm glad that I have it. Because I have at one time or another had a wheel so bad that it wasn't moving at all and the puller did the job.
UNCLE TED!, What is the part number for that Milwaukee cordless hammer???
Pretty slick!
That works great.
I have not used a puller to pull fans since the first time i watched one of your videos on how easily remove a fan
I wish you would leave a link to his channel so we could see him using the puller
czcams.com/video/0DikswFGDP0/video.htmlsi=iiyZ4-aWpJpDRl3x
Send a link to that bit for the sds plus
Great Video. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Looks like Koolin' with Krauss does an excellent job.
He does yes !!
Perfect 👍
Easy stuff. Try taking a tapered hub off a blower in service two decades & put together dry where it won't wink for a ten pound sledge.
I never used pullers, but even if I did you'd have to clean the shaft first so there's no way it's faster
Nice - clearly the better way!
I have never used a puller in this situation! Just like Ted shows sand shaft a little oil , she will let go, no issues! 40 year tech here in Canada and seen a lot of rusty shafts especially condenser shafts!
That's a nice 50 dollar puller,and a great way to replace a blower wheel.10:44 is priceless,she tight.
Wow, Ted your a real Wizz at doin that wheel pullin 👍 Au
😂😂😂😂 I love these 👍👍🏆🏆
This is just good fun, good for you guys👍
I used to use a wire wheel on a drill instead of sandcloth if i was in the shop or on the ground
I just love jack spray it is definitely the best stuff out there

Get the frig on with it man. I’m surprised the shaft didn’t surrender and release itself.
All I need is wd40, sand paper and a hard object, and I get that motor out anywhere and time "Laaak a Maaaan"
👍🏻👍🏻
respect brother
Ted's the man. don't mess with old school!!!
😂what is the name of that tool
Ted that's a guy who lives in his parents basement playing video games in his underwear. Old timers RULE.
Do you have a part one video
Look at the video posted a couple days ago.
Seriously... did you not look at this channel's catalog? Come on mane do better..
round 2 of wind spinner fan
💪
Nice job ''My Generation'' ... There's no school like old school Thx
😂😂😂 wow
Us old timers like to work easier not harder
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Get him Ted 😂
All in good fun…. My young underling may just surprise us !!
Go Ted go 😊
LMAO
I do it same way. Dont even need the jack hammer. I just sand it a lot more( make sure it’s super shiny everywhere ) & use Wd-40. ( wd-40 is better imo ) Give it a tap with a hammer & a punch. And out she falls. Maybe 30 seconds more sanding.

@OnusBones Are you crazy, How is substituting a wire wheel for sandpaper going to give you less things to carry?
You kicked it's ace Mr T .
diy is based
Easy..
Should have left the guys comment
So he can get dragged
I have used your method of removing the blower motors from the blower wheels and let me say this. After I tried your method I have just thrown my puller away. Worst waste of money I have ever spent. Anti-DIY for the Win!!!
Ted Wins!!!!😅
DIY owns Krauss! 😂. Never challenge the old timers, Rookie mistake 😅
There’s always going to be hater’s
I was a fan of Kraus but unsubscribed a year ago
When I purchase a new fan motor I also purchase a new fan blade. The labor and tools required to remove the blade offsets the cost of a new fan blade.
@thomasserovich9564 I don’t think you even know what you’re talking about, Because if you did you would have not called it a blade it is called a wheel or hamster wheel! Also how do you tell a customer that they are going to have to pay for a part that they do not need? If you knew anything about HVAC you would know that you cannot remove the wheel without removing the motor, Unless you want to disassemble the blower housing in which case it is now going to take even longer! You are talking out of your backend, I really hope you are not in this business because you just got schooled by an Master Certified Auto Tech!
No, this time it looked real. Of course a real HVAC Tech wouldn't need an impact hammer 😅 I'm sure you'll delete this comment too.
LoL
Wtf????? ...😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
