The motor is wired to the slip connector block, The block is split with two connections for selector magnet and 4 for the motor.  The 4 may have additional wires on it like end of line switch, if you have one. If no EOL switch you should be able to remove screws holding the 4 "button" section and leave it attached to the motor leads.

The mechanical mounting is a bit different but it only takes a few screws.  It's the wiring that is hanging things up.  I was hoping that it would pop out like it does on a 15.

Isn't your motor mounted on a flat metal
plate that then screws to the keyboard base?

I just packed up an FPRK for shipping, so I
can't look at it any more, but my experience
has been that most Teletype motors are mounted
on a flat plate, and the wired go to a block with
round flat terminals that then contact springy
contacts on the base.

Remove the screws that hold that plate to the base and you should be able to swing the plate out on a pivot screw (shown vertically under the gear in the above pix, but not
labelled or identified) ... remove the pivot screw and the
whole motor assembly can walk away from the base.

The diagram is from page  3-2 of Bulletin 1082B.
