I have disassembled my Iberimex rotary table. I struggled for quite some time, but figured there was only one way to get it apart.

Things i did:
- Loosen the bottom locating flange of the round table, so that it should be able to be lifted out.
- Remove as many items as possible from the worm shaft
- Rotate the eccentric part of the worm shaft, to disengage the worm
- Remove the round table
- Pull out the shaft
