If you're talking about this DBBrowser[^] you can execute SQL-statements with it. So you would have to identify a column-criterion by which you can specify the rows that should be deleted and then execute a DELETE-statement.

See:
https://www.sqlite.org/lang_delete.html[^]
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/sqlite/sqlite_delete_query.htm[^]

Example:

SQL

DELETE FROM tablename WHERE column1 < 100 OR column1 > 900
