I just bought a Hawke Sidewinder 6.5-20x42. This scope already includes Flip Up Covers (metal) for Objective and Ocular. I wanna remove them but I don't know how ... Please help ...

There should be a tool. 
It bridges between the 2 slots you can see on the inside of the lens. Then just unscrew. They get a bit sticky sometimes.

The Hawke scope flip-up cover tool is somewhat specific for each size objective, so you'll need the 42 mm size. And I believe there are two sizes for the ocular, so you'll need the tool for the 61051 flip-up cover (size 2) according to the Hawke website. Hope this helps, good luck.
