Abstract
A device for removing a tread from a wheel (e.g., a closing wheel of a planter, a gauge wheel of a planter, a gauge wheel of a cultivator, a gauge wheel of seed drill etc.) includes a body configured to support the wheel, and a fastener coupled to the body. The fastener is configured to engage the wheel when the wheel is supported by the body, and position the wheel on the body, and then compress the wheel against the body to thereby allow removal of a tread from the wheel.
