4.14.1 Removal
First Remove
1. Top-mounted handwheel (#1-8) or side-mounted handwheel (subassembly #13). (See Section 
4.3.1 or 4.4.2.)
NOTE: Before removing handwheel and handwheel adapter assembly, turn handwheel 
approximately 45° to permit declutch lever to fully engage therefore making handwheel assembly 
easy to remove.
The handwheel adapter assembly and the 
handwheel worm gear assembly procedures 
are interchangeable. The parts within the 
assembly are the same with exception to the 
handwheel adapter (#12-1) and the handwheel 
worm gear adapter (#12-1). The handwheel 
adapter assembly is used when the handwheel 
is top-mounted. The handwheel worm gear 
assembly is used when the handwheel is 
side-mounted.
