Default Installing SAT-004 high density die

Normally I'd just ring Stein for 5 minutes. But being 9:30pm and all...

How the heck do you install the high density pin die in the SAT-004 4-way crimper? I unscrewed the top, removed the spring, and can see the current standard size die. But I can't see how it comes out. Not pushing on it, can't really grab to rotate it, etc.

I've gone dumb.

Doesn't it just fall out? I took mine apart and just give it a slight tap and the parts fall out.

*mutter*. So it does. It wouldn't at first when I was trying earlier, even when tapping the front face of the body. Possibly got stuck. Shoved a sacrificial standard pin in, and the die dropped right out.

I'm hanging my head in shame.
