if the free wheel is caput and your not worried about wreching it.
hold the wheel firmly ... standing on it is good
have a look at the flat face of the freewheel between the cog and the notched body there should be 2-4 indentations which look like you could get a pin spanner in
use a small flat screwdriver or punch and a hammer and place the screwdriver or punch into one of the indents and try to drift it clockwise. as if tightening it up. it is a treaded cone which will unscrew.
once you have freeded it it should unscrew by hand.
under this there wil be alot of small balls / shims along with the pawls and springs
these will go everywere as you remove the cone / cog from the freewheel.
once you have removed all this take you wheel clamp the exposed body of the freewheel and remove it in the same fashion as you would with a normal remover.
