All, how doI remove this cover, assume there is a screw underneath to take the finger dial off but how do I take off the cover over the screw?  Thanks.

Is there a small hole between the "6" and the number card? If so, try this link

 debeaune,
                 Here's a pic - The left one is what John was talking about , the other you have to remove the stick on number card or cut a small + on the cover to remove the screw .  stub

Ken, I think you're right. I couldn't tell from the picture if the number card was crumpled under the plastic or coming loose as in the stick on type. Looked like a small hole at the "6", maybe, but then, the rings didn't right for the pin hole type finger wheel. Unless we hear back from differently debeaune, I'll agree with you and go with the stick on type, making the finger wheel easier to remove.

Replacing the number card would be a bit more difficult. What does one use, what would work best, to stick a repro replacement number card on that fingerwheel?
