Nim Deathmantle 's triggered ability does not target, and triggers whenever a nontoken creature dies. When that trigger resolves, you may pay 4 or choose not to. If you choose not to, you can't return that creature to the battlefield using Nim Deathmantle's ability at a later time.
If you return a creature to the battlefield using Nim Deathmantle's triggered ability, you may pay 4 and reequip it so long as you meet the timing requirements for activating equip abilities (sorcery speed).

Also you cannot unequip the nim deathmantle but you can equip the nim deathmantle to something else. The distinction here is important I think because you must have a legal target to equip the nim deathmantle to in order to remove it from your creature.

You can only use Nim Deathmantle to bring back a nontoken creature that just died, in response to it being sent to the graveyard, by paying 4 mana.
After that yes you are free to equip it to whatever legal target presents itself as long as you have another 4 to requip.
