5. Operating Instructions

5.1. Pulley Removal

This procedure applies to pressed-on alternator and power steering pulleys on compatible GM, Ford, and Chrysler engines, including Quad 4 and some AMC vehicles.

1. Prepare the Pulley: If necessary, clean the pulley shaft and surrounding area to ensure a clear path for the puller.
2. Assemble the Puller:
   • Attach the appropriate screw (CJ700-06 for Quad 4, CJ700-07 for GM, CJ700-08 for GM 3.1L) to the pulley.
   • Thread the Puller Body (CJ700-01) onto the screw.
   • Insert the Jackscrew Assembly (CJ700-02) through the Puller Body and ensure it aligns with the end of the pulley shaft.
   • Place the Thrust Bearing (CJ700-03) and Jackscrew Nut (CJ700-04) onto the jackscrew.
3. Remove the Pulley:
   • Hold the Puller Body steady and turn the Jackscrew Nut clockwise with a wrench.
   • Continue turning until the pulley is smoothly pulled off the shaft. Avoid excessive force.
   • Once the pulley is free, carefully remove the puller assembly.
4. Alternator Internal Bearing Removal: For this specific application, reverse the jaws of the puller body to engage the internal bearing. Follow similar steps for removal.

5.2. Pulley Installation

This procedure applies to the installation of late-model GM alternator and power steering pulleys.

1. Prepare the Shaft: Ensure the shaft is clean and free of burrs. A light coat of lubricant on the shaft can aid installation.
2. Position the Pulley: Place the new pulley onto the shaft, ensuring it is aligned correctly.
3. Assemble the Installer:
   • Select the appropriate Screw Installer (CJ700-09 for GM, CJ700-10 for others).
   • Thread the installer screw into the end of the shaft.
   • Place the Bearing Adapter (CJ700-05) over the installer screw and against the pulley hub.
   • Thread the Jackscrew Nut (CJ700-04) onto the installer screw, ensuring it presses against the bearing adapter.
4. Install the Pulley:
   • Hold the installer screw steady and turn the Jackscrew Nut clockwise with a wrench.
   • The pulley will be drawn onto the shaft. Continue until the pulley is fully seated to the correct depth, as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
   • Do not overtighten.
   • Carefully remove the installer assembly.
