Should it be possible to mount a 7-speed *** from a Sachs wheel on the Shimano?

I dont have the extractors, so I just want to know before I make any attempts..

It depends on whether you have a freewheel or a cassette. If you're
replacing a 7s Shimano freewheel with a Sachs one, that should work fine.
But if one of the wheels is a cassette and the other is a freewheel,
you won't be able to interchange the cogs on them.

Also, if your current wheel is a 7-speed Uniglide cassette, you can
just take the cogs off and turn them around to get extra life. They
are sometimes riveted or bolted together but those can be removed.

Thank you very muck for your answer!
I have a freewheel, so I will just give it a try.
