remove brake hoods

I am sure this has been covered before but once again the search function is down. I received the new Pinarello pantographed Cinelli 1R stem from France today and I need some help. I also have a new set of Cinelli bars to replace the Nitto bars on now. So I need to remove the brake levers. They are Cobalto brakes and the hoods are original. Not the most stout pieces of gear. So I guess my question is... how do I do this? Where is the screw/bolt located to loosen the clamp from the bars. Do I remove the hoods completely? and if so.. how. My normal course of action would be to charge forward..but if I ruin these hoods I doubt I will run down to the corner store to buy replacements. thanks. I can provide better pics if needed.
