9.9MXHT removal question

I have an '95 9.9MXHT on my sailboat and I need to remove it to service the cooling system. I cannot see how to remove the linkage between the outboard controls and the motor. I have the owners manual and a Clymer Shop Manual but neither discuss this topic.

Can anyone assist me with the procedures for removing the control cables from the motor? Thanks millions.

The shift and throttle are held on to engine linkage by a clip and cables are locked onto bracket by clamps, just pull up on clamp to release.
