Your FLAPS will also likekly have the battery remover strap. It has devices on the ends of a strap
that slide down over the battery posts, then when you lift on the middle of the strap, those ends
"grab" the posts and lift the battery out easily.

I think my battery is completely dead (87 sincere 7-passenger).  It seems fairly straightforward but is there anything in particular I need to know to remove the battery properly?  My local FLAPS has a replacement battery so I am going to remove it, take it for the core charge and install the new one.  The only other time I have done this was on my air-cooled pickup, and that was a while ago.

I have the day off so I can actually take a little time to do and learn some of my own maintenance
