126 rotor replacement; missing pages from my shop manual

I've had some vibration from my front brakes for a while, and decided to replace the rotors and pads. Problem is, my 126 manual (on CD) is missing any details on removing the rotors. Is there a bolt to remove so I can pivot the caliper and pull the rotor? I'm sure it's simple once you've seen it, but I hate to guess on brakes.

I replaced the rotors and pads on my 126 a year or so ago and I had to take the calipers off and hang them up with a wire like in most rigs. I used the Haynes 123 manual for help. Oddly, Haynes didn't print a 126 manual. I believe the caliper had the standard two bolts that I had to remove

PS: might get more response to this over on tech help.
