hey guys thanks for creating this awesome site I have been reading many threads about the problem I am facing with my Ryobi r181fb1 router. I am trying to loosen the collet nut but it is not budging.
I have tried tapping on it and also using some pb blaster spray, but its still really stuck.
I'm not really sure how to hold the shaft from turning so I can loosen the nut maybe that is the problem? I really dont want to put in my vice to stop the shaft from turning.
Other routers use 2 wrenches but I can't figure out where the 2nd wrench would go.
thank you for any help!
