There is a cross feed idler gear (LA 190) that looks, from the parts diagram that it's pressed
on and keyed to the cross feed screw. After removing all the other associated parts, I found that
that gear has to come off in order to remove the screw from the carriage.
Rather than simply bang on it, I thought I'd ask if anyone has done this before. The gears is "captured"
on both sides within the carriage casting, so it looks as though I'll have to tap on the end of the screw
to push the gear off.
