F32 wiper arm removal

I was at boat today to remove the wiper arms and can not get them off. They appear to just pull off, but don't budge. What am I missing? Any help appreciated. I don't want to force things and break something.

Nothing,they are just a little stuck,try tapping on them and use a piece of wood and a large bladed screwdriver to pry with...straighten out the arm as you are prying ,should just pop off.......that is how I got mine off....Mike

I am not sure how they come off my 1977 F 32, but on my F 26 the part off the wiper that slides onto the wiper motor spindle had a small set screw on the bottom that was used to tighten the wiper arm to the motor, so look around the part you are trying to take off for a small screw, if found loosen the screw and the wiper should wiggle off, hope I explained this properly.

Thanks guys. I will look for a set screw and also try the tapping and wood block. I'll let you know how it turns out.
