Hansgrohe T30 thermostatic cartridge (98282000) extractor

Hi, I have a Hansgrohe T30 thermostatic cartridge (98282000) that I need to clean or replace, but I can't remove it. I've spent ages Googling this, but I just can't find the right tool to help - it's probably a custom Hansgrohe tool. Can anyone guide me? Thanks!

I managed it in the end, and for anyone one else looking in the future the tip is to leave the silver/plastic nut and the c clip IN PLACE. Keep turning the nut anti clockwise and it forces the cartridge out.
