It's not exactly "whaling" on it if you hold on to the block and use a 5lb deadblow. I could see that being a problem just using a regular hammer. I used the block for getting it on there initially then struck the pulley squarely for the rest of the way. For the record this is how I installed mine like I said above and the motors been solid for over 8 years.
