The entire assembly is held together by two long screws, two nuts, and two lockwashers. Along with spacers between the band switch wafers.
The nuts are easily accessible from the back of the switch. Remove these, the lockwashers, and then carefully begin to pull the wafers apart. The first two spacers can be removed when you do this; the others should stay on the screws. The switch, still being bolted to the chassis, will prevent the screws from falling out.
Reassembly is the reverse of disassembly.
It isn't that difficult to do, once you overcome your apprehension of doing the operation, and will be a great aid in getting to all of those rubber-covered wires on the terminals of the bandswitch.
