If your just using an allen wrench, your probly not gonna be able to get enough torque to turn the bolt.

use the allen, and grab it with a huge set of pliers. use the leverage of the pliers and twist your wrist.. In other words.. grab the allen where its perpendicular to the tip of the pliers. Hope you can understand what im saying i dont have a picture

put a boxed end socket wrench on the end of the alley key for leverage if you are too cheap to buy a $10 set of allen sockets
