How do I get this sucker off? It's on a late 70's-early 80's Univega 10-speed. Labelled "Maeda Industries Japan Pro-Compe"

This might work, http://www.parktool.com/products/detail.asp?cat=4&item=FR-2

To ensure compatibility, you might want to send the photo and your description to Park Tool and verify the correct tool.

It is definitely a Suntour two-notch freewheel, Maeda owned Suntour. Suntour later went to a four-notch design, which gave a better interface between tool and freewheel when removing the freewheel.
