Does anyone know how to release the dial from a 2836-2 movement?
Most of the watches ive worked on in the past had screws on the side of the movement to hold on to the dial feet. This has hooks or levers that look to apply pressure to the feet. how does one release them?
Any help would be appreciated.

Those swing out in the horizontal plane and release pressure

Top and bottom are the dial feet clamps sticking out. Just press them out as rsh has stated.

So they dont actually lock into place? They just kind of tension fit VIA cam action of the levers? And to reinstall you just wedge them back against the feet? Is this correct?
