Help with a Hollywood senior

[Gtrubicon]

Hello, I was wondering if any body knows how to remove the top portion, where the die screws into on a Hollywood senior press? It's the aluminum version. I can't tell if it's pressed on or threaded on.

It always helps if you post a pic; perhaps that is why no one responded.

Is it this press?

Does it look sorta like this one?

Yes Kevin, that is the same press

Ok. I do not own one of those, but am guessing that if you loosen the lock-screw visible in the pic, then unscrew the lock ring, the top will pull off.

I have the older, shorting Senior and have no idea if the top comes off or not.

Good Morning, I have the same press and have the same question. Did you get to top off and if so how did you do it.
Thanks
