There is a metal clip that holds it in place on the front. Just use needle nose pliers to pull it out. Now the handle will come right off.
OK cleaned up my horrible blackberry typos.

It is easier if you move the shifter handle back all the way, look on the front side of the **** toward the lower part and you should see the retainer clip he is referring to.
