Had a lot of trouble removing the variator on my CN250 the first time too. Removing the nut was easy as I have an air gun. The variator itself would not move. I would try the penetrating oil. I tapped mine lightly with a hammer all around and finally it loosened up. Now I always grease the shaft so it slides right off. If you decide to use grease don't use too much as it could wind up on the belt.
