Hamilton 950 Ratchet Wheel Removal?

How do you remove the Ratchet wheel from the arbor on a Hamilton 950 looks like you need to drive it out or does it unscrew left hand, don’t want to guess could be expensive!.

Chris,

Are you talking about this wheel?

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

Somebody tell me anyway, now I am curious. Is this same setup on 19j elgin BW raymond and some illinois with jeweld barrel? Thankyou, Jim.

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.

Chris,

If you've had success in removing the wheel, could you please share the procedures with us?

John:

The following 5 pages from "The Watch Repaireer's Manual" by Henry B. Fried should help
