Removing mtb freehubs, different tool to a road bike?

Sorry I had a good look on the Park Tools website but it just confused me!
I have been trying to remove the freehub from my moutainbike, however the standard large allen key for Shimano doesnt fit my bontrager mtb wheels. Instead there seems to be a cog shaped tool needed but I cannot find anything like this on any of the obvious bike shop sites. Can someone please tell me what tool I need and where to buy one?
Thanks, this is probably a rally simple request!

as it is not a shimano hub it does have a different fitting.
if it was shimano the 10mm allen key would have fitted.
have a look on the bonty site for the info on you hub as they have a few different fittings."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
