Once the needle jet tube ( AKA main jet holder or emulsion tube) is removed it taps out downwards in the direction of the float bowl from above though the slide bore.

When pressing out the jet be sure that you don't press on the cup shaped edges or the edge may collapse.

and use a soft punch. If your carbs are completely stripped, you can heat them up so the jets come out easier.
