Lock the end of the shaft opposire the impeller and turn the impeller counter-clockwise as you look at the impeller. Some of them require a little 'convincing' in order to get them to spin.

SOURCE: how to remove impeller from motor to replace
If it's a separate shaft, it requires a puller tool, but first you have to remove a nut that holds the impeller to the shaft. If the shaft is part of the impeller, meaning that it is a one piece fabrication, then there is nothing you can do about it. You haven't even stated where does this impeller come from, a washing machine, a water pump, etc.
SOURCE: How do I remove the Impeller of my aquaflo
At the end you loosened the motor thru-bolts you should have a cap covering the motor shaft end. Remove it to find the end of the shaft. Depending on the motor brand and age you should have either a flatted surface for a wrench or a slot for a screwdriver to secure the shaft from turning. Turn the impeller off counter-clockwise. Some impellers are so stuck you can not free them holding the shaft end this way. Disassemble the rotor from the pump motor and lock the whole works in a vise to then get a better grip on the impeller. Impellers are often cracked from seal failure so do not be surprised if your impeller breaks up before coming off the shaft.
The replacement part number is the 8 digits you will find molded into the impeller plastic. For a quote on a replacement part(s) please contact us thru www.arrowpools.net.

Testimonial: "Very helpful, although the impeller did indeed break. I think my shaft is in such bad shape I will need a new motor too. I will call arrow!"
