How to remove emitter from Jetbeam Mk IIx ?

[Hamster]

My Jetbeam Mk IIx has failed. There seems to be a snap ring or a threaded ring holding the PCB in place. How do I remove this ring? Do I need a special tool ?

Thanks

JETBeam invented the "no you won't glue", so even if you make up a tool it won't come out easy. I've tried with a few with no luck.

edit; that's not a ring, they are notches in the heatsink.

So, there is way to remove the PCB from these jetbeams?

maybe you could try turn the ring counterclockwise with a small screwdriver or something with the 2 small holes on the head right?..
