Hi John,
Yes separating this assy for cleaning etc.
A friend sent me several pages from one of his books which explained it well with diagrams, but I don’t think I'm allowed to post this up here being copyright etc.

Thanks again

Anyone that has " The Watch Repairer's Manual " by Henry B. Fried can find this information begining on page 315, Motor barrels with jeweled main wheels. Hope this helps.
