Yep, ouch! Thats why most of us fabricate our own system/setup!
pull seal
the screwdriver in the seal worries me as far as scratching the crank how about drill a hole in the rim insert a screw and pull?

Scratching the crank is highly unlikely, it's the case you need to worry about.

1. Protect the crankshaft with tape
2. gently centre punch the metal part of the seal at 180
degrees apart
3. drive 2 drywall metal stud screws into the seal (not all
the way down.
4. grab the 2 screw heads with 2 pairs of pliers, and with
the palm of your hands resting on the saw housing, lift
up on the pliers.
I was able to pull the seals on my 036pro this way...worth a try.

I use this Lisle puller all the time. I filed down the lip and the width on the puller to make it easier to get into the smaller seals.

Your local Car Quest has this and run $22.00. I just picked one up today. Shipping to Alaska kills us up here so I just paid the $22.00.
I need one o' that.

I got one. It works great. Sometimes I use a regular or deepwell socket as an extension for the piviot point to get more leverage or to use a better area of the saw case to pry on.

I am so getting one of those! Got a Husky 380cd I can not get the seals out of.
Grab 2 and send me one.

I agree. Canceled order when I saw a $10.00 surcharge. Total rip off
