It's very simple.
Number one trick is to go to You Tube and search for "Shimano Nexus 3 removal" - currently there is a very clear video of an American(?) guy removing and rwefitting the wheel with a Nexus 3.
If this is no longer available, follow these steps:
1) Select first gear
2) Slacken the Allen key headed screw which protrudes from the rear of the shiny alloy changer unit.
3) Simply, slide off the unit to revealthe standard nut and washer arrangement you would expect on any standard bike wheel. (Take care not to loose the changer operating rod/slide which fits inside the spindle/axle).
To refit:
1) House and centre wheel in the usual way; tighten axle bolts.
2) Making sure that the sliding rod is in the spinble/axle and simply place the operating unit onto the spindle/axel and retaining nut.
3) re-tighten the Allen bolt and that's it!
Remember to test the gear operation before riding the bike and any minor adjustments can be made using the cable adjuster on the operating cable.
