carefully lift the tabs after removing the little shoulder ring around the shaft, the pot then is open for cleaning. Removing the shaft ring allows the rotary contact to be removed so that a thorough cleaning can be had, wasn't able to do that for the dual pot as the rotary contact on the upper pot was stuck on the shaft, other dual pots I have done has the upper rotary contact easily removable. Yes, this is a little extreme but will result in the best performance you can get from cleaning a pot, although I would like to replace them with a top quality pot. Unfortunately, finding pots with taps, like quality audio pots from Alps, etc. can be challenging and searching that will be for another day...
