A system for removing a stator vane includes a platform, a cutting tool connected to the platform, and a sliding connection between the cutting tool and the platform. The system further includes means for advancing the cutting tool with respect to the platform. A method for removing a stator vane includes positioning a platform inside a casing that surrounds at least a portion of the stator vane. The method further includes pivoting a cutting tool with respect to the platform, sliding the cutting tool in a plane with respect to the stator vane, and cutting the stator vane with the cutting tool.
