I had difficulty removing the suction strainer on my B1750 upon first change. Could not remove it with hand tools on the ground.I have a B2150 HST and want to change the strainer. The bolt is stuck and I am afraid to put too much pressure on it for fear of twisting it off. Are there any tricks to removing it?
First post BTW
Thanks!
Did you use an air impact?I had difficulty removing the suction strainer on my B1750 upon first change. Could not remove it with hand tools on the ground.
Finally removed the left wheel/tire and removed it easily with an impact wrench and 6 point socket.
You will not twist it off.

I cannot remember.Did you use an air impact?
I cannot remember.
I have both air and electric.
Either will work.
Use a six point socket and do not use an extension.
By the way, the strainer need not be changed, but only cleaned. It is permanent if not damaged.
