3. Position the Punch: Place the tip of the Mayhew 21244 directly on the center of the loosened pin you wish to drive out.
4. Hold Firmly: Grip the hexagonal body of the punch firmly, ensuring a stable hold.
5. Strike with a Hammer: Using a hammer, strike the top of the pin punch with controlled, firm taps. Continue tapping until the pin is fully driven out.
6. Retrieve the Pin: Once the pin is clear, carefully retrieve it and store it as needed.
