Maurits,

I don't think you should be able to turn it by hand  as soon as the  
switch current is fed.  The torque of that motor is much higher than  
you could hope to accomplish with your fingers ;-)

As to the shaft:  I believe the shaft is inserted before the housing  
is clamped shut and there is a retaining ring of some sort that will  
not allow the shaft to be removed.
