Morning Derek,

I will try to find Robert's videos on removing the head but I am interested in seeing what these 'pliers' look like. DMS's guide calls for whacking the head with soft nosed mallets but he does say it is hard to get a good strike given the locations of the tabs projecting from the head.

He strongly warns against using any tool to separate the head from the block that involves forcing between the two. Such as putty knives, etc.

I ordered the cam locking tool that Klaus advised and am currently clearing my workbench so I can assemble the parts as they are removed in an orderly manner.

DMS does the job without a cam locking tool but I will spend a little to be on the safe side.

Bob
