Master Cylinder sight glass removal

[adamp2006]

I'm having the master cylinder stripped for repainting and want to take the glass out, i've taken the clip off the back and dont want to go breaking anything so thought i'd ask as see if it just pushes out, if force is needed or what the best course of action is to remove it

The glass has a seal which holds it in place as well.I used gentle pressure.You could also use wooden block and large flat bladed screwdriver.
