Hi everyone,
Like the title says, who has had one of these annoed? My main question is, how can you remove the knob? I looked on the website, and it looks like the only part that is removable is the guts, not the knob. I am basically trying to figure out if it is going to count as one piece or two for the anno. Any experience is greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

The knob unscrews off then steel threaded part and i beleive that the steel threaded part comes out with the guts.

It's going to count as two and you have to remove the knob. Once you pull out the guts, look down inside the on/off. The knob is held on by a brass hex screw. Be careful when removing this screw, as CP loctites them in and the brass strips fairly easily.

Don't make the same mistake I did, or else you'll be having fun with JB Weld -

Fortunately, CP was cool enough to send me a replacement.

Use heat to break the loctite and and hold the on/off body in a padded vise.
