Use a heat gun to heat up the pulley, then hit the shaft with a hammer that will not damage the shaft.

There isn’t a second grubsrew under the first is there? Quite often you find two so that they don’t come loose

Thanks i stripped the headstock off bed today and found a hairline crack in the front of the housing below the bearing . i had already heated the pulley but there was no movement hence the head removal to get better access when tapping gently with solid rubber hammer the crack became evident so now i dont know wrere to go from here
