Use an angle grinder to shave off the old link, punch it out with a hammer and punch.
Fit new chain, take a socket 10pm or abouts, and mole grips and gently pull on the new link face. Use a ruler or flat edge to make sure it is square against the adjecent links. Take a hammer and roll over the edges of the link pins. Crude way of doing it but has got me by for years.
