I need help. I am helping a friend with his 710m and we need to remove the shifter. We can not get the "shifter shaft" removed. This is Group: 02-30-03 in the diagram. The roll pin, Group 02-30-02, has been removed. We really don't see a plastic bushing, Group: 02-30-01. We have tried to punch this out, mainly right to left without success. We have used s significant amount of PB blaster and heat. What are we doing wrongly. Any tricks or advice? Thanks.

Thanks! It looks straight forward but that pin will not budge. One would think the plastic shim means it is a little loose. I thought maybe it was tapered but the drawing does not imply that.
