Hi
Im know this is an old post,but if your still having problems i maybe able to help.
One of our workshop machanics had the same problem,we tried the pulley that hayter supplied and heat but nothing.
We used wurths ultra 40 (same as wd40) sprayed from behind the blade disc, let it soak for a hour,then threaded the blade bolt near the boss and hit it with a large hammer and as the disc moved we then moved the bolt out,once it has move spray it again,it will come off within 15min.
Note: you may have to retap the thread,but thats easy.
