To remove baton ends, first ensure you have the right tools, such as a small screwdriver or a pair of pliers. Depending on the design, locate any screws or locking mechanisms that secure the ends in place, and carefully unscrew or release them. If they are simply threaded, gently twist and pull to detach. Always handle with care to avoid damaging the baton or its ends.
