    (I hope this helps..) In automotive applications, they use special
    gear pullers.  It looks kind of like a three legged claw with a screw
    on top. Tightening the screw makes the claws grip and pull on the
    bearing while the center bolt pushes on the shaft. 

    Also, bearings are pretty tight tolerances.  I kind of doubt you'll
    be able to rig it up and have your saw work right.  There may be
    markings on the bearing when you pull it.  I shimmed the bearings in
    my old rolling mill. It still chewed up thin wire.  Look for the
    right bearing..
