I don't think you can. Why do you want them off? You could cut them and just leave the plastice part on.

I don't think I have them far enough up the limb for optimum results. I thought I could take them off and thry to reinstall or just get another set if necessay.

Well, if you didn't wash the area with alcohol before installing them they should come off pretty easy with a steady pull. A drop or two of denatured alcohol above and letting it work it's way in while pulling may help, but I'm guessing on that one.

I just took some off my SlayR about two weeks ago. Used a knife blade to slip under an edge to loosen it. Then used my thumbnail to pry them off the rest of the way. No big deal. No damage to the finish. Then installed the Ultra-Limbsavers.
