Removing rusty blade adjusting bolts on the JEY
After removing the knife and the wedge from the adjacent knife well, the opposite end of the ajustment screw takes a much larger allen wrench, which you can apply alot more torque to. Clean it out the wood chip dust & junk, let it soak with PB Blaster and go for it. You should be able to get it to loosen up.
