Unhappy Opticon Hr60r

Focusing knob on my OPTICON HR60R came off??

OK Anyone know how to remove the hard rubber surround as it looks as though there must be a small grub screw which locates on the spindle, I do not wan to use brut force at this stage ,I wonder if soaking in WD40 might aid its removal ?
Many thanks

I would say that as you are located so close to the Opticron HQ then you should return it to our very helpful folks in the Service Deptment
