If you

to remove both (hoop and fork) at the same time, since they may be
partially “glued” together in flux. (If that is the case, then skip step
4.2 below, and be careful not to drop fragile parts.)
3.
Both the Fork and the Hoop are held in a common aluminum collar, which has
five (5) screws. The two screws closest to the wide motor plate are used to
