I have an old Briggs & Stratton 4 cycle 6 HP engine and need to replace the clutch. I don't see any bolts so how do you get it off the shaft?

you will need a 3-arm puller, a tool with 3 arms attached to a central nut, the arms grab the clutch or whatever, and you screwin a bolt through the nut to pull the arms back. the bolt pushes against the crankshaft and the arms pull the clutch. it should be held on due to a groove in the shaft and clutch, with a piece of metal jammed in holding them together.

here is a link to a pic of the clutch to make things more clear.
