Free-form Equivalent to BITOFF?

Hello,

have been reading the RPG reference manual and the new Bit BIFS have me
totally confused.

I am trying to convert a statement that turns off the first four bits in a
single byte field to free-form and am unsure of the best way to do that.

Original statement:
C                   BITOFF    '0123'        BYTE      

Want to leave bits '4567' untouched if possible.

Thanks for any help.
