Try one of the following:
  • Find someone strong enough to pull the agitator apart without damaging it
  • Holding the agitator part down with your feet and pulling up works, but you have to be careful not to hurt yourself, either by straining your back or by having the pieces suddenly release and smack you in the face (been there, not fun).
  • If brute force does not work, find a good deep wide bucket and fill it with the hottest water you can get and let the agitator soak for at least a couple of hours.
