    Thank you for your replies. The problem was not removing the nut but actually getting the wheel out of the machine. However, worked out eventually that the flap comes off completely freeing the wheel. Next problem is the new wheel - which IS the correct one for the machine - is 127mm instead of 125mm, so my supplier is in touch with Rubi about this.
