Answer
Hello Charles:

The Armature is Attached to the Engines Crankshaft Using a Tapered Fit. You will Require a Special Puller or you can McGuiver the Flat Bars that Slide Between the Armature and the Engine Plate Using Flat Steel (3" Wide X 10 to 12" Long X 1/16 to 3/8" Thick). Set the Steel Bars in Place and Mark them so the Line Up with the Slots in the Puller. Mark the Bars and Drill Holes in them to Accept the "All Thread" Rod. I Use my Large Slotted Puller and "All Thread" to Attach the Puller to the Steel Bars. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck
