User guides for each RouterBOARD, which MikroTik provides on routerboard.com, define the identifier and location of the reset mechanism. Hint: look for a distinct hole on the RouterBOARD and short-circuit it.

I will post some pictures when I get the time chance.

To reset RouterOS to the default configuration, execute the command /system reset-configuration. That should do the job. It will do a backup of the current configuration prior to the reset (how convenient!), in case you change your mind and possibly prevent accidental resets.
