Any 'pushing' on the components risks damage to the board. I'd
consider it the same as rework.You either need a good desoldering
system and some skill to clear the hole, or you destroy the component
and replace it.

A practical solution is to simply live with elevated component.

I have tried the following:-
1. push with finger [too painful]
2. Use a glove [too bulky]
3. Use pliers [risk of damaging component]
Possible solutions
Push with Cork, with groove cut in end to reposition component
Push with small Alligator clip.

Praticasl solutions would be welcomed,

Rod
