Jeff --

you have the wrong tool -- the one that works is obviously intuitive -- 
hook it over the pivot and grasp the arm and handle of the tool in one 
hand, squeeze, wiggle, and remove.

The original Anco tool is no longer available, AFAIK, but this this one 
is similar in operation:

JC Whitney lists the same tool by Lisle for about half the money, bit 
the link is twice as long:

The Anco tool had two fixed prongs that went on either side of the pivot 
hub -- a double ended tool with one bigger & one smaller.  Maybe keep an 
eye on eBay? This one sold May 19th:
