Model 580 questions

I have come into possession of a Model 580 single shot 22, made from 1967 to 1979 or there abouts, looking at the marking I suspect this one is a '78 production gun. My problem:
How do I get the bolt out of the receiver??
It doesn't release by pulling the trigger and holding it back the way the older guns did.
How does it work???

This question may get more views and answers at the actual Remington Owners site...
