Hello Frank, You can use a pliers that is for removing external circlips or a suitable needle point pliers with a spring so that when you when you apply pressure to the handles the points move outward. Even with this awkward shaped snap washer it is a doddle to get it back on the shaft with the spring pliers. Its a very usefull tool to have. regards, Martin Kennelly |
