What size hole in the pulley does the tool fit in?

Thanks

Default u dont need that, if u have a 2nd person handy, just have them hold the fan while

you spin that nut clockwise..that nut is reversed thread.

Yup. You can also use a strap wrench if you can't find someone to hold it.

I took a bbq skewer and bent it into a "J" and it worked perfect. I am not putting the fan back on.
