Cannot Tighten My Kwikset Deadbolt (it has no visible screws)

Please help, our Kwikset deadbolt chassis is becoming loose, and I cannot tighten it up! There are no screws.

I followed these instructions online,

How to Remove a Deadbolt Lock Without Screws : eHow.com

However, I press the awl directly into the small hole in the shaft of the thumb latch, and it will not release!

Please help!
