Question
Is there a way to get the cylinder out of the knob without a key? do I have to pickit first, because you have to put the key in and turn 90d and push the slot in to release the knob?

Answer
Hello Marvin,

To remove the knob from the lock body you must have a key, or pick it.

To remove the cylinder from the knob you only need to have the instructions on removing the cylinder from the new style F series locks, unless it's the old style.
