Trying to replace the motor housing on a Bosch 1617 and having a problem removing the thin nut that holds the bottom bearing in place and is threaded to the shaft. The nut has two flats (24 mm) and the collet wrench is perfect but it is so close to the flat on the shaft which needs to be held while the retainer nut is loosened I can't get both wrenches in the space.
I also read that the nut has a left handed thread. Can someone confirm that?
Any advice would be appreciated. All the other disassembly is simple.
Thanks,
David
