You have to take the big nut off. I think it is a 52mm, but i will have to look and let you know.

Yu have to use a puller to get the counterweight off. A 2-jaw puller can work. If you use some ingenuity, you may also be able to get it loose with a hammer and a prybar, but you have to be very careful where you hit it as not to mar any mounting or sealing surfaces. good luck, and if you really need more help let me know, i may be able to come out and pull it for you.

Tap the edge of the counterweight with a hammer & it should break loose.
