Apparently I only paid for the knob. I can either return it or if someone can tell me how to remove the old knob my rod is still functional. My old knob spins on the rod but I cannot see how to remove it short of a BFH and smashing it. There must be a better way. Can anyone enlighten me?

Came off quite easily. It seemed so obvious after you suggested it but it never occurred to me to try that approach. Thank you.
