I would think it's less about how much it's propped up, and more about how much pressure is on the pin. Either play with the hydraulic tilt to remove pressure, or open the manual release valve on the hydraulic tilt to relieve the pressure on the pin.

You might clean off the rust with a piece of emery cloth, prior to driving out the pin. Lubrication of the pin is also likely a good idea.

Thank you got pin out was only surface rust. Cleaned it up with emery cloth, put light coat of grease on and reinstalled. The propping up worked good barley had to tap pin to remove.
