Are you sure you need an wind back tool?
The manual states that if you loosen the bleed screw a little (and of course connect a bleed tube into a small jar with approved brake fluid) you will be able to push back the piston into caliper housing without a problem.
Maybe you will also need to clean a little the caliper housing.
Search on the forum, there are people that changed the brake pads and it wasn't so difficult.
I can't remember in this moment the exact thread, but it can be in this section...

If you are simply fitting new pads then you can easily push the pistons back with a lever of some sort - easy peasy Cheers,
