[SOLVED] Signal ground screws

I've just purchased a DJM-850 and I can't unscrew the signal ground screws, unbelievably tight and they won't budge. I can still use the mixer but getting a lot of noise which isn't ideal. Anyone have any tips as to how I can unscrew them and get my earth wires grounded.

Put a tiny drop of oil on the top of where the pieces connect, let it soak in for a while then try and remove again. Use something like a plastic dishwashing glove for a better grip.

No luck so far but I'll keep trying. I've now got the gloves too so hopefully it'll start to budge soon. Suggestion very much appreciated.

Eventually I had to use pliers, fortunately I had a small pair which worked well as I was anxious about the surrounding inputs.

May have tighten during shipping? Glad it's fixed.
