Undo the M6 nut on the underside (10mm spanner) then use a large flat bladed screwdriver to undo the bolt.

Simples.

See where the lever pivots on its mounting?That is a bolt which you unscrew and remove.It may have a 10mm nut on the end,I cant remember.When you have removed it the lever will come off.To replace is the reverse operation.

Grease the pivot too (when replacing).
