The knobs themselves can be pried off (gently!) with a small flathead screwdriver. If you've ever worked on an analog Saber, they're very similar. Just make sure what you're prying on is the outer rubber knob and not the plastic insert, otherwise you're liable to damage things.
Instructions for removing the plastic inserts are in the .pdf file.

I have found my teeth are a good tool for removing the knobs as well.
Whoever designed those knobs needs to be drug into the street and shot
