Daniel,
It is sort of tricky but you can get inside those motors if you have to.
You have to first drive those 3 roll pins in. Once this in done, you can pull the motor off (be careful the or the guts of the gearbox will come out with it). Now you can get to the screws that hold the motor cover to the rest of the motor, but before you do, locate those roll pins and put them somewhere safe! Also, be careful pulling the motor apart. It has been a while since I did this, but I think you can pull the die cast cover off without affecting the brushes. Anyway, as I recall you can get to the wires when you have the die cast cover off.
Good luck if you attempt it.
Let us know how it comes out.
