Acquired this last week after searching for a couple of years.
Used some unusual 'tooling' to disassemble it. Metal chuck mounted on SS spindle holding bearing head.
MT2 extension with a crescent wrench on the tang. Bearing head came loose first.
So onward Used same "tooling".
After cleaning up and waxing. Soft wire brush removed rust etc.
The bearing is in excellent condition in spite of the sawdust cake.
Bearing removal is not easy, so I left it alone.
