The only other shot that I have is one that shows the back, though I don't
think that will help very much, the text on it is somewhat hard to read, it
says "German Manufacture" and "Patented":

But it *does* show me what I needed to see. One of those two
rivets (I think the one on the left) is in a slot on the underlying
part, and pulling the levers at the bottom to the right pivots around
the other rivet, pulling the lower wheel both out of mesh with the worm,
and its pinion out of mesh with the upper wheel, thus allowing them both
to be rotated by the other hand to set to zero.
