Replacing upvc door gearing?

Options
Hi my upvc door needs a new gearing mechanism. I have managed to remove the handles, barrel etc but i dont know how to remove the gearing mechanism because its got concealed shootbolts that are screwed into a hole on the top and bottom of the gearing mechanism.

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to remove the mechanism with the shootbolts being screwed into the holes?

Thanks in advance

    It shouls just unscrew and pull out, the top and bottom shoot bolts have a screw at the top and bottom you will need a dumpy screwdriver.
