Hi, Bob.
As I recall, there are two trim discs you'll need to remove (carefully). One sits on the winding / cocking handle, and one is the shutter speed dial. On the winding handle, about all you can do is to try to slip a straight pin under this and get it started. You may have to replace it with a little vinyl circle. On the shutter speed selector, try to get a thin piece of wood or plastic (a flattened bamboo skewer will do) in there to lift it. Some say you can warm these to remove them, but I've not had much luck with that idea. Just be very careful not to bend the shutter dial.
Jon
