RIT knob removal?

[Barry N1EU]

Can anyone suggest the proper way to remove the RIT/XIT knob?

Thanks/73,

I believe it's a push fit, I'd suggest pulling it :-)

"Rule of thumb" - first check for setscrews, and if none, it must pull off.
Exceptions:
Caution on knobs with rubber 'tires' - the setscrews are under the
'tire'.  And to make matters more confusing, there is a new line of
panel mount potentiometers with integral knobs - neat concept, but the
'knobs' are not removable (not used on Elecraft gear - so far).
