Hi Bill,
I slip a single ended hacksaw blade just under the cap, and saw off the lugs to remove the cap.? After that, very little heat is needed to remove the nubs from the board.
Make sure you do not leave any filings behind.
Good luck !

Before I jump into replacing the low voltage power supply filter capacitors I wanted to see what technique others have used. My concern is damaging the circuit board. What is the best way to remove the solder while avoiding damaging the circuit board?
Thank you,
Bill
