Wheel Bearing and Hub Removal

Does anyone know how to remove the wheel bearing hub, i want to replace the wheel bearing. Is there any special tools i need? And is it really difficult? I already removed the brake rotors and everything, i just don't how to remove the splash shield and hub. I took out the four bolts from the hub but i don't see anything else thats holding it but still doesnt come out.

It is a light press fit in the housing . You need to tap it out carefully with a hammer .

i was trying to tap it out but still nothing so i stop because i wasn't sure if that was the correct way of doing. So just taping it out with a hammer should do it? I guess i have to tap it harder.
