Hi,
I still feel sure that the spindle can be removed Alan without lots of dismantling; the opposite end of the spindle to the knob I think is centred and simply locates onto the point of the adjusting screw; slacken the locknut and unscrew a few turns to see if the spindle becomes loose. If it does you then only need to remove the contacts to allow the spindle to be withdrawn. If I'm right about the circlip this will be positioned to allow removal of the spindle towards the front whilst still attached?
If you end up with all the panels loosened or removed you could find alignment problems later when you try to put it all back together again.
Have you considered moving back to Queensbury then I could pop over?
Kind regards, Col.
