Impact gun and suitable 6mm allen bit.

secure the pulley somehow. (oil filter strap or thin rope wrapped around pulley) undo the the allen bolts and you are done.

I find if i tap in an allen bit then give it a hefty crack with a hammer, it will come out quite easily. Impact gun is always the way to go though.
