its easy enough without one,

just disconnect horn > undo bolt but leave it on one thread and pull like fuck,should come off with some brute force.

Should just slot back on with a push

Really easy with the puller, best tool I purchased,
*Unscrew the bolt, but leave it on,
*attach the puller,
*tighten and you'll feel it pop off,
*take the puller off unscrew the bolt and the wheel should come off in your hands,

refitting is a case of lining the wheel up and pushing against the spring, put the bolt back on and tighten.

Thats it, should take, 15 - 20mins max
