Use a suitable bolt that the head doesn't completely go through the bearing (the head works against the inner race) but it has to be long enough to have a washer and nut on the other side of the socket.
The bolt is on one side of the bearing, the socket the other to catch the bearing, the washer and nut outside the socket.
You then just hold the nut and tighten the bolt.
It should push the bearing out without you having to use any force which might damage something.

I have used this method and it works well.
