Removing the steering wheel on a Puma
Hi there!

According the workshop manual it is necessary to use the special tool: Remover, Steering Wheel (PN 211-295) to take out the piece.

There is an alternative to take it out not using this tool?


Cheers! Eduardo

I just did it the old fashioned way. Loosen nut in center of wheel, leaving nut on, pulled wheel with knees and one hand, one good smack with hammer on centre shaft. Off it came, I think it may have even come off this truck without getting to the smack.

Exactly the same as Landy Andy. Cannot emphasise enough to keep the centre nut on until the wheel is loose, alternative could be a nosebleed when it lets go and smacks you on the hooter. I loosened the nut and used a rubber mallet first removal.

+1 for loosening first.

When I removed mine the first time without loosening, I also removed half my front tooth.

Good advice and probably this special tool will be more acequible than the 211-295 Eduardo
