You need what's called a roll pin punch, it looks like this; http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/m...llPinPunch.jpg Note you don't need to, the other way is just be really careful with a normal taper pin punch if you have them.

Basically a punch but with a raised part in the centre so you can centre the punch to push out the pin. This is basically what is in that hold; http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...heavy_duty.svg

Just a rolled piece of metal that's slightly springy and pushes "outwards". The traditional pin you usually think of is called a dowel or taper pin.
