When I need to unsolder something from one of these terminal posts, I
unscrew the post from the chassis first. That way, I'm not putting
any strain on the post itself -- any pulling and prying is against
the other wires/components connected to the terminal end.
A good vacuum desoldering iron lets you minimize the amount of heat
you need to use to get things free.
Best regards,
Charles
