what you have there is a hub designed for freewheels. so the kit ya got won't work, as it's for freehubs.
you want one of these http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=7805 .
the kit you got is for hubs on the right, you have a hub similar to the one on the left.
,
compare what your current geared freewheel looks like with the ones on here then get the correct tool and remove the old freewheel. then clean the threads, grease em up, and install your new single speed freewheel. then re space and redish your rear wheel. this is because the rim is currently not in the centre of the hub flanges, which it needs to be to get a good chainline, which is achieved by moving the spacers between the locknuts and cones around, and tensioning the left side spokes, pulling the rim into the centre of the flanges.
