For this simple task, you only need to pay close attention when removing some components. To extract the knob, leave the gearbox in neutral.

Without rotating the knob, simply pull it upwards. To remove the plastic ring, pull this part upwards as well.

This way, you can release the clips that secure the gaiter to its base, being careful with all the various clips. Now, retrace the steps in reverse to reassemble the various components.
