Hello Roland,
I've been doing a lot of focuser removal and exchanges lately, but on refractors other than Meade. However, based on a picture of the scope it looks like the focuser is secured to the back of the OTA housing by three or four screws. It would be just a matter of taking them out to remove the focuser body. What is different about the mounting points is the location of the screws not being on the flange that attaches to the OTA.

Good Luck
