First of all, welcome to the forum. Hope you like it here. I had the same thing happen with my SpinfaktorHG. First, don’t try to use a vice. You’ll break your bearing. Just use some regular pliers and really grip it and wiggle it back and forth. It make take a little while, but you’ll get it out. There really isn’t any other way to get it out without breaking it. ---

Apetrunk said it all. Also, there is no need to make a poll for this topic. ---

Use this part of the pliers only. It helps keep you from totally crushing your bearing. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/3/7/1370866380678eccc725acca2f83bb9b51d2e7f1.jpeg) ---

Right, and don’t pull it straight up. Just tip it up and down ( so one side will be up, the other will be down.) then switch, and continue rocking it back and forth until it comes out. ---

Actually I use this kind. I put it on the bigger setting and that works well. I just grab the bearing from the top instead of the side and wiggle and they always come off. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/0/5/b0585db9475f2fdca392462a841512720d23d186.jpeg) ---

I have used those too and they work just fine but for a noob I suggest those because they grab more of the bearing and can cause less damage if the person that is using them doesn’t know what they are doing.
