SOLVED My pump won't connect to my Presta valves

Page may contain affiliate links. Please see terms for details.
I recently changed to a bike with Presta valves which I haven't used in a long time. I can't persuade my pump to connect. I reversed the inner parts of the pump's connector as (I think) is the correct procedure to go from Schrader to Presta but it just sits on the valve and doesn't connect. Attached are photos of the pump. What have I got wrong?
