You pull out the e-clip at the bottom of the shaft.

Take the Jesus Clip off the bottom.....    ermm sorry... In non arcade speak take the spring clip off the bottom of the shaft. The whole thing will then come apart.

If you don't wrap a cloth round the spring clip as you undo it you'll discover why it's called a Jesus Clip, as you spend the next hour or so searching for it.  :hissy:

P.S. Must remind myself to type faster than Horseboy in future....  ;)
Most bottles and jars contain at least twenty-five percent recycled Pacman.
And research indicates that Space Invaders are strongly attracted to people who have recently eaten meat pies.

Use a flathead screw driver and pry it out - it takes a small amount of force. Be careful - that clip will fly.
