DJM 2000 cross faders - do they come off ?

they are the new p-lock faders, they are "locked" on but you can take them off, there are instructions 

directions in this article, for the 900 but the 2000 should be the same way http://www.djresource.eu/Topics/story/138/Pioneer-DJM-900nexus/

Hmmm? is the 2000 p lock i thought it was only the 900?

According to this on the 900 has te p lock.
Of so the djm 2000 are hard as hell to come off.
So ate they p lock or not. Worried I might of destroyed a $2000+ mixer.

Yup they are p lock just took them out.
The one I was trying to force out the little grey inside the fader thing is about to break. where can I buy a spare?

once the site is back up later tonight, probably right from their parts area, http://parts.pioneerelectronics.com/

Please don't take them off. Why do you want to take them off?

extremely curious person.

try to take them out them forcing them and figured it was odd and decided to ask.

funny how online only the nexus said p lock. Till i tried that, was not aware of that feature.

Ok well.. You know how it ended for the cat...
