Default Loosen floorboard bracket for exhaust install

I'm going to install a new exhaust on my Softail Slim and need to loosen the right side floorboard brackets to allow enough room. Can someone tell me which bolts to loosen for this?

Just did mine last week. All I did was remove the board itself n left the bracket. Just remove the 2 Allen cap screws that act as the "hinge".
