Did you solve your problem as my thought was that you need to remove the cam shaft first from the crankcase
before pulling out the crankshaft. The camshaft is mounted in the crankcase at the top front of the crankcase and operates at 90 degrees to the crankshaft. Since it has spiral gear teeth that engage the crankshaft gear teeth, it must be removed first before pulling the crankshaft.
