demounts
Removes from position
Demounts is the third person singular of demount, meaning to remove something from its mounting or support.
A technician demounts a tire from a wheel, a curator demounts a painting from the wall, a soldier demounts a machine gun from its tripod.
The word suggests careful removal rather than forceful detachment: She demounts the lens before cleaning.
