I need to remove the tiller handle from the metal rod that it's attached to so that I can replace the metal rod. I think that the red kill switch button is held on by the black handle, but I'm not sure. Any of you know how I go about doin that? Is it threaded on, or do I need to pry it off? Thanks for any help.

BTW it's from a '89 15hp merc. Pictures:
