Hammer blows and help with the mount did not give any results. With the manufacture of the puller did not bother.

I took this simple advice:

With the wheel removed, he started the engine and accelerated on a standing car to 30 km / h. Then squeeze the clutch and a sharp brake.

Due to the moment of inertia, the drum had to fly off the seat. But! That did not happen.
