I said quite easy, I should have said reasonably easy. The secret is to put the downward pressure on the pad so that the screw grabs the pad, and unscrews against it. This unscrewing action collapses the end that grabs the frame.
Not putting this downward pressure on the pad allows the screw to turn and 'jump' over the thread in the pad.
