I have a power drive thats 5 years old, one trick that has helped me and everyone i have shown is.

When you grab the handle of the lock, pull on it and keep pressure on it, then while the pressure is allpied use the other hand and grab the motor shaft and slide tthe motor out.

By keeping "pulling" pressure on the lockhandle it will take the weight off the area the motor casing rests. With no weight, you have no binding. That trick has worked on every PD motor i have shown people. The big difference is i was there to show them ,not trying to type an explanition. It sound simple and it is, most people will only pull enough on the locking handle to get the catch the lock grab out of reach of the lock, but if you hold the pulling pressure with the motion of deploying the motor the motor come right out.
