March 8, 201412 yr I used one of these.. There are 5 sizes for the 5 most common bearing sizes, one of which fits the bearing on my TXT 280 Edition. Put it on the floor with the slot up , as shown in the picture. Put the wheel over it so the slotted portion end up inside the inner race of the bearing. Slide the flat ended punch through from the top, insert it into the slot and give it a couple of good taps to expand the slotted portion. Lift the wheel up and tap the punch again and the bearing pops out pretty easily. Literally took me less than a minute to remove both bearings.
