I have taken the three rotation nuts and the center bolt off and can only get the head to move less than 1/16 inch off. It is not bound up on the bolts. It rotates OK, but it wont come off.
What is holding it on?
Do I need a bigger hammer?

Fixed, I got it off.

No hammers required (BFH or otherwise!).
Look on the r/h side and you'll see a set screw. Back that way off.
Lower the head down onto a chunk of plywood (etc), and it'll slip right off. Be ready - it's a heavy sucker!
