    one of the best tools you can buy for tasks like that is a hot air gun, you can pick them up these days for a tenner and should last a while. use it to heat up around the alloy casing where bearings sit, get it good and hot and use a mallet to knock the casing.
    most manuals will show a purpose made puller but those cost money and you will probably never use it again.
    hope this helps.

    yeah, before re-assembling, put the crank/bearings in the freezer and heat up your cases again. with this you will be well suprised how easy it will all go together.
