2007 Bobcat T190
Hi everyone my name is Pete I have a 2007 bobcat T190 trying to remove the final drive plugs to change final drive oil and I've tried everything to remove these two plugs and they were frozen in there I've tried penetrating oil heat nothing's helping these plugs are the small allen head type. Does anybody have any suggestions to remove these plugs so I can change the oil

Thanks

Pete.

Using a round piece of steel, about the same diameter of the plug and giving some good taps with the hammer usually works really good.

For the lack of better wording, here is a small clip of what I'm suggesting:
