Thanks Blumbly, I did manage to find a section on this forum about making a crank-pin removal tool out of a socket but haven't found anything about how to get around the Press requirement. I used to see the odd mower when there were Hard-Waste collections held bi-anually but here in Melbourne they have changed the system and now you must arrange individually to have a Hard-Waste collection so you don't see many mowers or anything else put out. If anyone in Melbourne is reading this, where do you get your old mowers from?
