| [* black] With calipers, measure the width of each end of the pin. You want to find the smaller of the two ends. The smaller the pin, the more difficult this is. | |
| [* black] On my machine, the smaller pins had one end ground flush to the part, and the other sticking out. The end that stuck out was the smaller end. | |
| - | [* black] Position the part in the arbor press so that the part is supported by the jig you made, and the small end of the pin is up. |
| + | [* black] Many of the larger taper pins have a rounded end and a flat end. The rounded end is the larger end. |
| + | [* black] Position the part in the arbor press so that the part is supported by the jig you made, and the ***small end*** of the pin is up. |
| [* black] Press on the pin with the arbor press. If you are close to using all of your strength and the pin has still not moved, give it a few more heat - lubricant cycles. | |
| [* black] If the thing still doesn't move, you may be pressing on the wrong end. In which case, see the next step. |
