wonky undercarriage

I presume that the wonky alignment of the undercarriage wheels on both the Lynx and Wasp is to prevent the aircraft rolling off a pitching deck, and to allow it to be rotated in its own length on the flight deck.

But how do you move the aircraft back into the hangar? Presumably the wheels can be released to allow free castering? If so how is this done? Is it simply a matter of pulling out a pin? Or is some other magic involved?
