Front

To get the front caliper off there are 2 bolts holding it on the upright, behind the rotor . Once the caliper is off there's a cap in the centre of the rotor . Get a screwdriver and hammer and pry and tap if off , clean the grease off the stub and take out the split pin and undo tge nut should be finger tight , use a 15" shifter or multi grips . Then slide off the washer and the rotor will slide off the stub ,

Rear is much the same with the calipers, except the rotor will slide off the studs , give it a good tap with a hammer to free it , I think there's a bolt or screw under a rubber grommet which you have to remove to allow the rotor to slide off . Could be wrong been years side I did rears .
