How to remove back crystal from ZF RM35?

[fitipaldi]

Hello, I need your help please.
The rotor of my ZF RM35 is loose and it is touching the back crystal, making a lot of noise. I tried to open back case, remove back screws but the crystal remains.

Do you know how I can remove the crystal?

thanks

On my ZFs the back crystal is part of the rear bezel; they may have updated this since but I'm not directly familiar with that.
If the construction is like the gen, there would be a metal crystal surround into which the crystal was inserted, and the metal surround with crystal in it can be removed with a pair of tweezers since it's just set into the case. If you can supply some pics we can probably figure it out, since that's not like the ZFs I've torn apart.

The only time I took one apart, I do not recall being able to separate it from the caseback.

Thanks for your replys!!! I finally realize that the crystal was only superposed, so it was very easy to remove.

Now I have a new issue: trying to unscrew the rotor I realized it was only GLUED !!!!! I never expected it!!!!!
did you have the same issue?? is there a way to solve this problem?

That's why I hate taking pieces like that apart. It can turn into a real shit show quickly.
