Save me some busted knuckles please... I picked up an old haybine that sat all last year with a broken part. Had that fixed last fall and had to remove the cutter bar to do so. Thought it would be a good chance to replace a bunch of the sections before putting it back in place. Sections are in with bolts and nuts and I'm having a heck of a time getting them out. I spray with the special WD-40 rust removal spray and let them sit for a bit. A couple of them have just broken off when I tried to loosen them. A bunch of the other ones turn, but the bolt turns with the nut and it's just been a pain to try to get enough of a grip on the slotted bolt head so that I can loosen the nut. I've replaced half a dozen sections, but I've got a couple others that I gave up on and moved on from. I'd like to replace quite a few more, but my frustration level told me to stop for a while. There's got to be an old timers trick that I don't know about that would make this an easier process? What's the secret that I'm missing? Thanks in advance guys.
