The best procedure is to tap lightly all around the face of the race with a drift and continue this process as it starts to move. Remember, harder hits are not your friend in this situation. Patience is a virtue.

That's extremely clever, but unfortunately I don't have one.
For reinstallation, I'm thinking it may help to put the new races in the freezer to shrink them. |
