Take a penlight and peer into the slots before you tug on the knobs. In addition to needing to be pulled straight out by the shaft, they need to be offset a little up or down, depending on which knob. 2 need to go up and 2 down. The reason seems to be that the knob shaft (insertion joke here) is not on the same plane as the actual metal control lever. If you don't do this, the control lever "socket" on the inner end of the knob shaft hits the inside of the faceplate. -Simon On Monday, November 11, 2002, at 05:01 PM, Marc Perdue wrote: > They can be pulled off; however, you need to be careful not to break > them. > Speaking of which, does anybody have a spare one for the temperature > control > lever they'd like to part with? > > Thanks, > Marc Perdue > > Blake Heinlein wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Does anyone know if you can remove the heater levers or the knobs on >> the >> end of the lever so you can remove the faceplate?
