They seize in place due to them not being removed very often.
Tap in an anti clockwise direction with a block of wood and hammer/mallet.
Don't go ham!!
Hope that helps.

I made up a tool based on a large water Emersion heater tool with two shaped blocks of wood to fit the grooves. Found had to have leverage low down, tapping was not successful in my case.

Persevering with a rubber mallet and a piece of wood worked for me. A bit of a pig. I cleaned and then greased the threads with a silicon based grease prior to reinstalling which is great for the next time.
