Ah. No easy way. Just like when I cleaned up an RA-105B tuner 20 years ago.

One thing you can do is remove the IIRC 4 Philips screws under chassis that hold the tuner to the chassis and with the tuner loose you can get to those screws....I will add the caveat that Ive never owned a square dial 103 (only both versions of the round dial) so I don't know if the square dial tuners allow you to do this as easily. I've had at least 3 RA-103 tuners off in the something like half dozen RA-103s I've benched. Two were to swap when I was making a good chassis out of 2 mouse eaten ones, and the other was to deal with a snowy picture issue...That one it turned out that a mica in the lower compartment of the tuner that coupled the antenna to the RF amp had a snapped off lead at the cap body.
