A quick learner from Kentucky says:
How do you remove a pivot shoe from the channel? If a tool is required, can you provide a pic and is there a video?

There are two methods. The first uses a 75-069 jamb spreader to open the jamb and remove the pivot shoe. Here is a photo of the tool and a video on how to use it:

The second method uses a dremel or file to create a cut-out for the pivot shoe to pop out of. Here is a video on that process, as well:

See which of these methods is best for you.
