Subject: Removing the knobs?

From: "zendenker" <doof@cox.net>

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to whip my polysix into pristine shape. The last thing I
need to do is get rid of the scratchiness of the volume pot. Minor
problem, I know... but I'm a perfectionist. Anyway, I've read that
the easiest way to do this is to remove the knob and shoot a bit of
contact cleaner into the hole.

Question-- Is removing the knob as simple as just yanking it up
really hard? I've applied a small amount of pressure, but it
doesn't seem to be giving... so I figured I'd ask before I use
actual force. If anything, I need reassurance that this is the
right way to do it (seems like the only way).

Thanks for your help.
