Thanks for all the replies, but I ought to say that this one has been put to bed. Encouraged by Gunner's reply that there is nothing special retaining the pin, my thinking led to the same idea that Colin Jones also came up with.

I wrapped two lengths of chain around the outrigger box and hung a 3/4" steel plate on them. I then sat a 30 hydraulic Porta-Power on the plate and pressed againgst the bottom of the pin. A bit of a hooray, and up she rises! Pardon the quality of the photo, it was taken on a Mobile Phone.
