Is it simply to remove the spindle? what do the letters mean?

Sure, if you can get further photos that would be great.

I have found the item in the line drawings but it appears not to have been documented in the Identification List.

Thats interesting, But if its just a cover then why not be plain and look like a cover..? why all the holes , letters, and the slot?

From the handbook.
The right side, near the front and at the bottom, is bored and bushed to form a bearing for an outer releasing lever for the extractor, and with two holes, the front one to facilitate removing the extractor spindle, the rear one to admit a closing spring setting tool and removal of the crank shaft; the two holes are closed by a cover secured to the casing by two screws which enter a slot in the cover; the cover has lateral movement to expose the holes. I wonder if your gun is from a non English speaking user and the M and S stand for that.

A wild guess would be 'Maintenance' and 'Service' positions for the cover plate.
Though the letters are not mentioned in the handbook surely the overhaul manual will reference them. David

We are getting there, The gun is Canadian, I have five bofors guns and one has a plaque stating made in Canada, and this one has the cover as well. I have a manual, I will try to find it again in the manual now I have an idea what to look for...
