It has been a while since I have had to replace a TIC gear or motor so I
cannot remember the details other than I removed the top screw and used a
small gear puller. Anyway your motor may be different, there are numerous
variations of TIC motors. It is possible that the motor shaft has a woodruff
key so the key will not slide off the shaft but the gear should still pull
off with a decent puller.

keeping me from removing the entire gear assembly. There should be a slot
for 
the key to slide through, but there isn't.

Surely I'm missing something obvious. How was this thing assembled ? How
would a 
motor ever be replaced ?

trick before I use a propane torch on it ?
