My even bigger problem (after working hard getting the top plate off as noted, PB Blaster, square-shafted screwdriver in a crescent wrench aided by a vise-grip on the head of the screw at the same time - takes only three hands) was getting the cable free from the retaining pin. We ended up drilling a new hole in the side of the vertical casting to press the pin out, after removing the hair-diameter cotter with small needle nose. I'll consider this newly-drilled hole a nice feature the mfg. forgot to include, until someone knows of a better way to get these apart... And by the way the freed parts make a nice "ting" sound when they fall down the tube into your after bilge.... recommend a dishpan or something be placed underneath first....
