Not while the shells are down, you don't :-) There's quite a lot of energy stored in there.
Is it even safe to remove these bolts while the shells are up and locked? I would like to work on the rectangular bars, one of which has one of the holes for the latch broken out. The latch that you step in the stirrup to engage, not the corner latch.
