So I had to remove the quick release, apply the cassette tool, then put the quick release back on over the tool to hold it down. Grrr.
The Shimano one is the same. I usually use the QR skewer to keep it in place, and then tighten it with my Torque wrench and this deep socket:

Slightly cheaper than buying a $50 tool to do this job.
Or, you know, just use a Crescent wrench.
