That you cannot do. With a defined benfit plan, in-service distributions (distributions while working) are not possible until you reach the normal retirement age (generally age 62). You will see that noted by the IRS here:
https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/choosing-a-retirement-plan-defined-benefit-plan

You must be able to take a distribution before you may roll it over.

the plan summary says this

" H. Can my payment be directly rolled over into an individual retirement account or another employer plan? Generally not. However, if your distribution qualifies as an eligible rollover distribution, you may elect to have your distribution directly rolled over, within sixty days after you elect to do so, to an individual retirement account or another employer sponsored, tax qualified retirement plan. these kinds of transfers are referred to as "direct rollovers." in a direct rollover, the eligible rollover payment is made directly from the plan to an ira or another retirement plan that accepts rollovers. if you elect a direct rollover, you are not taxed on the amount rolled over until you later receive a distribution from the ira or the retirement plan that received the direct rollover. monthly pension benefits are not eligible for rollover."

what is a eligible rollover distribution?

i am vested, what if i left the employer can i roll it over? i'm not talking about cashing it out i'm talking about rolling it over into a personal IRA
