i first cover the adjacent LED bond pads with Aluminum foil token them from 
getting hot.

I then heat all of the pins at once using the small heat gun on my Hakko rework 
station.

Once all pin bond solder is melted, I snap the board against a safe surface so 
as to make the molten solder fling out of the holes.

The encoders always come out easily and the board does not get overheated and 
the pads are undamaged.
