What LouNY said. When you originally hooked up the cutter to the tractor, did the bushings slide freely on the pins? As Lou said, I think you may have some weight bearing on the draft arms and a block of 4x4 under each side of the cutter at the front might help. Also there could be some corrosion/rust between the pin and the I.D. of the bushing that has it stuck.

Relieve the weight/force on the pins and then drive them out with a brass drift. Make sure there is plenty of clearance between the pin and the bushing 0.015" to 0.025" keeping in mind this is farm equipment, not precision machine tool stuff.

Also, please populate your profile with the make and model of your tractor...this will help others help you!
