A pulling device for removing gears, bearings, sprockets, etc. from the shafts on which they are mounted is disclosed. The pulling device comprises a housing, a laterally movable shaft received within the housing, and a pressure transmitting member interposed between the laterally movable shaft and the housing. The pressure transmitting member is rotatable by means of handles attached to a torque ring mounted on the end thereof. By rotating the pressure transmitting member, the laterally movable shaft, which does not rotate, moves laterally with respect to the pressure transmitting member within the housing of the pulling device. Jaws are attached at substantially equal angular increments to a collar which surrounds the housing and the ends of the jaws engage the underside of the part or component being removed. Since the jaws engage the part at a plurality of angular locations and inasmuch as the laterally movable shaft does not rotate as the pressure transmitting member is rotated, the laterally movable shaft does not "walk across" the end of the shaft on which the part or component being removed is mounted.
