[TR] Removing gears off main shaft (gearbox)

[Tim Moore]

Removing that circlip is one of the most frustrating jobs you will ever do without the special tool. Its actually a S69A. I believe its a typo in the manual. I don't think there is a S67. You can try and get if off using screwdrivers but be prepared to utter every cuss word you know. I ended up using a dremel with a small pointed grinder and ground into the clip weakening it enough to allow removal. The part is cheap and besides its always a good idea to replace clips. After that I did find a tool on ebay but they are as rare as hens teeth. Good luck. This is what the tool looks like.

 I'm looking at the ROM of the Stag and it says I need a special tool to remove a circlip off the shaft.( Tool S67. ) 
I haven't looked at the shaft yet, but can I just remove with a think bladed screw driver?
I'm assuming the TR6 has the same set up
