How to remove front power take-off pulley?
I ran into an unforeseen problem. I noticed earlier today the bolt that holds the alternator bracket to the front of the engine was turned out. Actually, there was very little left of the bolt. The pulley was acting like a grinding wheel for who knows how long during the time that this bolt has been unscrewing itself. Trying to avoid taking off the two pulleys in front of the engine to remove the bolt, I hacksawed the bolt head off then could remove the threaded portion. Then, realizing that there is no way to put in a new bolt without taking off the large pulley, I started work on that. I have not had this pulley off for 30 years, but referred to notes I kept from when I had it off in '87.
I took out the 6 allen wrench screws from the PTO pulley, and then my notes say that it should come right off. However, I can't budge it. I believe I need to get that off to access the 2 set screws that hold the main pulley against the engine shaft. I was really trying to avoid all this - one of those problems that appears fairly simple at first look but then turns out to involve much more. Any ideas why the PTO won't come off? I can access the one set screw on the larger pulley but the way it looks the other set screw is not accessible as long as the PTO pulley is still on. Suggestions most welcome. I'm not a skilled mechanic but do what I can. My apologies for any use of incorrect mechanical terms. I'm sure you know all the parts I'm referring to. Thanks...

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
