Randy: the roll pin is flanged or flared on the top end and beveled or
tapered on the bottom end. The tapered end must be hit to remove the pin as
hitting the flared end will only try to drive it through the hole which is
smaller than the flare. It is installed this way hoping gravity will hold it
in. As inconvenient as hitting from the bottom is, it is easier once started
out to pull the pin out the rest of the way from the top. Reinstallation is
relatively easy this way too and would be very difficult getting this thing
started from the bottom!!! Good luck...stay patient...and just come back
here and write %&*+%$#@&%@+&% when you get frustrated so you don't have a
black thumb and broken armrest   ;>)    Good luck..happy hammering.
