Definitely grind away at the two pins you are wanting to remove first. Makes removal much easier. Just like when you remove a link from your drive chain, but in a smaller case.

I've jus replaced mine and had a few issues with the tool.

Managed to get the new chain installed.

Why are you replaing the cam chain anyways?
