Removing Raymarine ST4000+ from Edson Destroyer Wheel — Need Guidance

Update: I heard back from someone knowledgeable on this setup from Edson. Looks like my Edson wheel is mounted directly onto a 1” straight shaft with no retaining nut—just a keyway. What I’m seeing in the center of the hub is actually the shaft itself.

Apparently, the wheel should just pull straight off, but if it's stuck from age or corrosion, a few medium taps with a rubber mallet near the center of the hub should break it free.

Thanks for the help so far—this confirms what I suspected!

Going to try that soon.
