Havent touch one of those things in centuries but the easy way is this, no cotter extractor thingy needed :P

Just lose the small nut a few turns till is flush with the top. Grab a hammer and hit it on top of the nut, if you want to be more carefull use a piece of wood on top and then hammer the wood... samething... as the cotter moves the arm will get lose, pretty obvious after that, remove the cotter and you are good to go.

Same thing with the other arm... no rocket science, if the cotters are ok re use them, if not measure them and replace them but honestly I doubt they will be bad.

Remove the BB axle anyway you want because is pretty much straight forward, remove the nuts blah blah... clean everything as you do with any other bb, reinstall the thing.

When you never had the tool to remove those things you have to get creative.... hammer time!... if you have a rubber mallet I would not use it because you really need to hit the cotter firmly.

Good luck.

ps: i know the ones that do everything by the book will say im crazy... :P
