how to pull out 9205 Spring Terminal block

I have two NI 9205 with spring terminal, the 32 channels are all wired, now I need to send them back for calibration, I want to replace them with another two 9205 in the meantime, in order to save time on removing wire from the old 9205 spring terminal and reconnect to the new 9205, I want to pull out the spring terminal block from the two sets of 9205, and swap the spring terminal block.

 

I loosened the two small screw on the two ends of the 9205 spring terminal block, then try hard to pull it out, but it does not move, I afraid to damage it by pull too hard.

 

Does anyone has experience on this?

The little screws can be deceiving; make sure that they are all the way unscrewed.  I would grab the top of the connector and pull a little bit and then pull the bottom (to sort of rock it out).  That's the easiest way (I just tried it on a 9205 at my desk).  The connector can be a tight fit but nothing else is keeping it connected.
