    My button was useless. Wasn't even working properly. I just used a pipe wrench. Twist and pull. Do not spray liquid lube in there first, that only creates some suction. Use a towel around the pole and wrench to prevent scratches.

    I'm glad I am not the only one who has this problem. My 99 Champion pedastals stick !! I have used both the pipe wrench and the a large set of channel locks
