In 2nd gear, there should be a symbol in the angled thingy that lines up nicely with a cutout in the housing that holds the angled thingy.
If you can identify the marking and its reference you know what to shoot for when reinstalling the wheel. Now, unhook the wire by holding the locknut(closest to the angled thingy) firm and turning the sleeve. Then back out the axle nuts a few turns and pop the wheel out. Doesn't seem to be any coaster brake reaction arm to worry about.
All my trigger shifter says on it is 1, 2 and 3. There are no symbols on it. So do I still put it in number 2 position then loosen the nut near the wire, to get the assembly off. I read the article from Sheldon Brown but it doesn't say how to take the rear wheel off the bike so I can change the tube and tire.
