How does one remove the wiper arm on Kubota R 3560? Took off the flange nut but the wiper arm cannot be removed. The motor is installed behind a panel on the other side of the glass. Is there a removal lever behind the panel or is there some way to remove the arm on the outside?

Much appreciated.

If it is like mine, it has a tang that you need to release to pull it off of the shaft. I use a small pick to pull the tang away and then pull straight out on the wiper arm. The arm has a spring that keeps the blade in contact with the glass which causes the arm to bind so you have to overcome that spring tension as you are pulling it off. Just don't try to pry against the glass, because is not forgiving. It will shatter!
