A cordless impact gun would be my first choice. Failing that you could go old school. An offset box end wrench or a socket on a breaker bar or ratchet will work. Hold the pulley as best you can and whack the handle end of the wrench/bar with a piece of lumber or dead blow mallet. A quick blow should break it loose seeing as how it's a new assembly.
"Striking wrenches" are actually made to be hammered on to remove tight fasteners.
