Lawn Flight MTD 11hp 30"cut?

I have a puncture in the rear wheel. How does the wheel come off? It appears to be part and parcel of the drive shaft. there is no 'hub', no wheel nuts? So can anyone tell me how I can take off the wheel to take it to a garage and get it fixed please?

The rear wheels are usually fixed on by either a single central bolt or a circlip...both have got to be removed first. The wheels are always rusted on, so spray plenty of WD40 in there, and be prepared to tap them off with a rubber hammer from the inside. Make sure you don't lose the long square key that locates them!
