It's nearly impossible by hand without messing something up. The best
way is with an impact, the sudden jolt usually works without even
spinning the shaft much, you can hold the fan with a rag and it will
break free rather easily.. You may not have an air compressor, but if
you take it to an auto parts store they should have an electric impact
that they can zip it off for you with. They usually have one behind the
counter somewhere for changing out alternator pulleys that come on the
rebuilt units that are different than what the customer needs.
