B&W Companion slider stuck installing

I can't believe it. I just got my new Companion slider unboxed and went to set it in place with the turnover ball hitch and it failed to seat all the way. Now I can't get it back out.
Man this thing is heavy too. I plan to go back to the shop that ordered it for me and see if they can pull it back out with the forklift. I guess I am learning a hard lesson on cleaning the socket out good and lubing it before installing.

Check your spring loaded locking pin under the bed. It may have released and is holding the hitch retainer in place
