cab removed, tabs on the so called smoke deflectors were holding unit from separating.
Looks like you have removed the correct screws. I know my 6-8003 (same design) seemed stuck. It took some persuasion around the valve guide to free up.
Glad you had success!
Thank You,

Did the fix already, all good, Thanks Frank
I bought one of these on Saturday April 6th. I have wanted one since 1980, that's 39 years. I tested it and it did fine. I think you will enjoy yours also.
