HOW TO USE:

• Loosen the Pin (If Needed): If the pin is seized or very tight, use a solid punch to apply initial force and break it free. The goal is to get the pin moving slightly before using the pin punch. Do not use the Mayhew 21242 on seized pins directly.
• Position the Pin Punch: Place the 2.5mm tip of the Mayhew 21242 Pin Punch squarely on the loosened pin. Ensure the punch is aligned straight with the pin to avoid bending or damaging the punch or the pin.
• Strike the Punch: Using a hammer, strike the head of the pin punch with controlled, firm blows. Continue striking until the pin is driven out of its bore.
• Clean Up: Once the pin is removed, clean the area as needed.
