Should I snap the 1P8T Rotary tab?

[Jbanks]

On the 1P8T for the Super Heterodyne Receiver, I should snap off the tab on the side of the switch a la a potentiometer tab? I’m guessing the answer is yes, but wanted advice before doing irreversible damage to the switch!

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Yeah I did...

I just used a set of side nippers to clip them off.

Thanks everyone for your responses! Just wanted to make sure it didn’t lock into the PCB with the tab somehow. On to wiring !!
