The equatorial lines were removed manually within Pymol. For each line, 
I seleted the atoms connected using Ctrl and the center button on the 
mouse. Then, once the two atoms were selected, I removed the line using 
Ctrl-d. Note that you can then save the molecule to a new pdb file for 
further use. Moreover, if, by accident, you remove a needed line, you 
can re-introduce it using Ctrl-t.
