Default clock repair

Does anyone know how to remove the hands on a clock on a 79. There is a great site on repairing one but it does not show how to take them off. It looks like you just pull them off but I have broken enough stuff thinking for myself.

Use two screwdrivers as pry bars and gently ease them off lifting equally on both sides. Careful not to loose them as they sometimes pop off. Maybe cover the clock with a cloth.
