Just when I thought the motor replacement couldn't get more complicated this happens. I just received my motor and was trying to remove the impeller. I have the Hayward Tristar model where a screw holds the impeller in. The screw was worn out and the hex key didn't fit. So I used a vice grip to turn the impeller counter clockwise. I turned little too hard and hear a snap followed by the impeller loosening. Here are some pictures. Any ideas on how I can remove the head of the impeller screw from the impeller? Thanks in advance
