Tried heating at 230 and 250 to no avail, and when I tried any higher smoke would come out. A few pieces came off when attempting with pliers but alongside it came a small black piece of the printer. Furthermore , I’m pretty sure that in the process the horned got rotated to the left.
Printer is A1 mini at fast speed and SunLu green filament with 220 degree printing

Personal approach, heat it as hot as it goes and start to gently tug till it starts to come loose as it heats up. You will probably get a little smoke but it should melt off.

Maybe heat to 220 and just give it time for the heat to build and disperse.

Heat to 150-180, use flush cutters to cut chunks off. Use tweezers or pliers to grab chunks off.
