I have damage to the mainshaft of my Lofrans Electric Windlass. I have removed the gypsy and inner clutch cons as well as the rope drum and access plate on the port-side. I thought that the shaft would then simply slide out but the main-gear has a convex gear that fits snugly over the worm-drive and this prevents extraction. I think that I have to pull the worm-drive out but it is pressed into place and I can see no method of attaching a puller to it.

When you re-assemble it be sure to use Duralac or Tefgel on the stainless set screws to prevent them "freezing" into the alloy casting. It will make the next strip down very much easier.
