for future readers here...... Sorry no pictures of my work. from 8 to 4 easy to remove. just 3 bolts.
14 to 11/15 also easy if you have some cir-clip pliers. I say easy, but this is where the problems start. 14 is an assembly and the spring and the seal came right out. Seal was damaged. Everything looks old and brittle. So i bought the SMALL kit that included everything so far. My snip in the OP is the LARGE KIT. I did not buy that.
Small kit = 14 - 6 (not including the key). Key is #9 here, but called 18 in the manual. this dwg and the manual don't perfectly align as the manual goes thru the parts.
The bottom of 14, the green part is wedged into the housing. I had to uses some screws and drill into the "cup", then pry it out. Of course the act of drilling, screwing, pulling, pulling the screw out, etc..... damaged a bearing. So now I need 2 bearings. Also probably original 35 years old and about 1500 hours. Maybe not, but I sure have never been in here. Anyway, new bearings alone look to be about $25 each. DAMN.
Very tuff to get my circ-clip tool in the housing to the bearing. about 1.5" down in there on the middle groove of the shaft. I have one of those circ-clip tools from Lowes that has removable tips of varying point sizes and tip angles. SO lots of choices. I had to use the straight tip not being attached to the plier part. I got them both. 16 and 11 are out. Now for the fun...
DID NOT REMOVE THE PULLEY>>>> again, i used the Lowes circ-clip tips between the housing and pulley and was able to get the other 16 and 11 out. I was pretty proud of myself at this point
Found a 18" scrap of 2x4 and wacked the shaft a few times and the shaft and 2 bearings came out. ALL dis assembled now. YEE-HAW. Now i wait for the bearings to arrive.
