Mitre saw issue

[bsr]

Hi

I've got an Evo mitre saw. I had a kickback and since then the blade isn't clamping properly.

I can't get the back blade clamping washer off the arbour so I think there might be a burr on it that's stopping the washers and blade from moving freely and hence not clamping properly. Does this sound likely?

Any suggestions how to get the washer off? I've tried filing the arbour. I was thinking of a gear puller but I don't have one.

Thanks

Can you get a pair of long handled grips on it?

Did it with a helper and a pair of screwdrivers in the end, thank you
