Girling caliper E-brake lever removal?

[scott miller]

Can the E-brake lever be popped out of the caliper for cleaning?  I've 
pulled and pried.  Before I get overly aggressive, can someone verify this 
won't break something?  Old postings, and a letter on Chris Miller's site, 
seem to imply I can do this.

This is a rebuilt, purchased '98 (100k ago).  The puck is very stiff to 
turn, not helped by lack of the two inner teeth I normally see in the center 
hole.  The puck boot looks like it's pulling out of the caliper.  I've never 
had one apart, and I don't see any obvious way to dissasemble for 
cleaning/repair/rebuild.  I know I've seen postings mentioning it, any 
hints?  Time for another rebuilt caliper?
