THanks
No one around at the time I replaced my blower motor, so I used two stacks of books. The book stacks were close enough to support the cage with the old motor hanging in between the books. I used a punch and struck the motor shaft a couple of times to free the cage from the old motor.

I put the cage on the new motor by using a small block of wood, and taping the wook gentle to press the cage into place on the motor shaft.
