Richard asked: "List,
If I remove both screws from the piece attached to the key,and the 
whip flange, can I then remove the whippen?"

Richard,
No need...Just push/pull up on the wippen, while holding the key down. The wippen sticker will separate from the rocker capstan. a caution, however: some times there is a screw that makes the sticker "tongue" tight on the center pin of the rocker capstan...loosen that screw about a full turn, before attempting to separate the two.
Regards,
Joe
