you can purchase a special wrench that will fit into all the little groves. it fits a half inch drive ratchet or breaker bar. I got mine from vic's place in guthrie oklahoma. or you can contact them at vic's place .com. I broke a pair of site glasses before I broke down and bought the wrench. you might also get lucky with the strap wrench good luck. mike

I had a difficult time getting them off even with the wrench. I had to apply a little heat and eventually got them loose.
