Technics SP10 MK3 bearing and lubrication


Does anyone know how to remove the spindle from an SP10 Mk3 so as to enable one to clean out the bearing lubricant and install new? This seemingly important topic is not mentioned in either the owners manual or service manual. (I don't have an owners manual, but I am assuming this is true, because none of the guys who do have a Mk3 owners manual can answer my question.) Any hints or relevant information would be appreciated. It seems certain that the process is much different from that of the Mk2. The usual suspects are just as much in the dark as I am on this question.

This a very good question.

Does it make a significant difference to the sound quality? And what does it in entail?

My SP10mk3 with Thales Simplicity II arm and Lyra Etna SL is sounding pretty good, but always want more.

 Yes, I have seen that awesome thread, by the one and only JP Jones.

  I like Lewm will get JP's chip as soon as he can make some more, especially since my original failed.  JP, you reading this - I will contact you early in the new year to check on the chips :-)   

 cheers
Lewm.  You are lucky you are so close.   I am at the other end of the world :-)
