removing flywheel on H

I have the tractor split, I have the clutch out, is there anything special I need to do to remove the flywheel besides the four (4) bolts holding it on.

Is the flywheel balanced or anything? DO I need to try to mark on the crank?

Thanks for advice
 
I am thinking the bolts have tabs on them that will need bent out, and it only fits one way. This is two year old information, so may be a little fuzzy.
 
Bend back the tabs, remove the bolts, and it might take a heavy hammer to rack the flywheel enough for you to slide it off, it took a couple whacks with a sledge hammer to get my M's flywheel loose enough to come off the pins. Be ready, it's a heave SOB! I put a 4x4 block under mine in the case it came off awkward it wouldn't drop to the concrete floor. Once you have the flywheel off I would have it turned at your local machine shop and take a look at the ring gear. Mine was a little worn down so I had my local CaseIH dealer remove it and replace it with a new one (the machine shop should be able to do it as well), if its already out you might as well spend the money and do it right because if that ring gear fails in 6 months your going to be kicking yourself and splitting the tractor again! When you replace the flywheel I would either get someone to help you align the bolts/pins or what I did was I stacked lumber scraps on top of a 4x4 so that I didn't have to hold the flywheel, I could get it lined up and then quickly slip it on, replace the bolts and set the tabs. ~Anthony
 
I don't remember if it can go on in a different position than what you remove it from, but it is supposed to go on in a certain position to allow greasing of the original style clutch pilot bearing through the bottom of the flywheel with the engine at #1 TDC.
