First unhook all of the wires that connect to the reel cage.
Remove reel cage from pachislot case.
Then on some machine you pullout the press tab and others you remove the screws that secure the reels to the reel housing and thats pretty much it. there may be some other wires to remove for the lights behind the reels.

They are sitting in a cage. They are held in by either screws top and bottom or black push plugs. Remove all wired connections to the reels first and the screws version will come out as one piece and the push plugs will come out as individual reels. Usually when you have backlit reels you can expect them to come out individually. It's no sweat to do and don't worry about turning the reels as the computer will sync them back up.
