How do you remove the RWS detachable lever?

Does anyone know how to do the above, can't find any videos on line or in any forum posts

It's for a Canyon, with Mavic wheels, as it only has one RWS detachable on the back wheel that needs to be used on front, but can't for life of me work out how you get it off the back?

Thanks in advance and sorry if it's very obvious!

States: RWS QUICK RELEASE SKEWERS WITH DETACHABLE LEVER THAT CAN BE USED ON BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR WHEEL

    Best I can offer is this DT Swiss Instruction manual.

    Looks like you need to have the DT Swiss "Plug-in" type QR lever to allow you to detach the lever mechanism to use on another wheel. From the images provided it looks like the Plug-in type has an allen key stub attached to the lever mechanism that plugs into the QR spindle (see image on the LHS of the first page). Seems like you just need to pull it out but maybe it needs a bit of persuasion.

    Many thanks arlowood!

    Worked out how to remove said Removable level, as you say just needed to pull it very hard (was a new bike so wasn't sure and didn't want to mess it up on first day) thanks for your assistance sir.
