you have to remember i left hp some 10 years ago, the instructions i have given were for older m/c's

a 3 legged bearing puller wont work

as the link you pointed to mentioned we used a special bit of kit that was basicaly nut bolt washer and tube.

the 3 legged bearing puller you mention is for pulling bearings off shafts, not out of housings.

stoping the pulley turning was easy (for hp engineers) we had a u shapped bar you just shoved it in through the pulley spokes into the tub recesses, it stops the pulley form moving, and boy was it a big spanner we used for the nut, it was also not unusual to hit the spanner with a club hammer because when you put the nut back we put "loctite thread locker" on it
