Gas Gas EC200 Swing Arm Bolt

Hi Guys

I am removing the motor from my EC 200 2003 and the Swingarm bolt looks like it has a welded bead to stop the bolt from coming out, I had a look at the diagram and it shows an area machined off the bolt head that would match the bead of weld to stop it rotating, does the bolt just tap out ?
Item #24 on diagram
Thanks
Wade

Just "tap" it out.
Usually, they can be a bear to remove.

As above. Heat gun. Penetrative spray.

Make sure you put it back in same way.

Thanks Guys, (it just looks like the flat on the bolt is very close to the weld bead)

Got it out, I prepped the big hammer and and heat, however when I gave a tap it fell out, now on to the Engine
