I received a reply:
"Wenn bei einem Motor ein Kolben gezogen werden muss dann geht das nur nach oben heraus. Dazu muss der Zylinderkopf abgebaut werden. Die Montageklappen an der Seite der Kurbelwanne sind dazu da die Pleulstangen von der Kurbelwelle zu lösen ohne die Ölwanne abzubauen."

Google Translate:
"If a piston has to be pulled in an engine, it can only be pulled out upwards. To do this, the cylinder head must be removed. The assembly flaps on the side of the crankcase are used to detach the connecting rods from the crankshaft without removing the oil pan."

So, it's not as easy as I hoped, but still the whole crankshaft and oil sump/pan doesn't have to be removed, which in other engines, would usually require removing the entire engine.

That was nice of them to reply.
