Hi folks:
I opened my pool for the first time by myself. Pretty easy, really. All went according to plan...EXCEPT one of the brass grommets used to hold my LoopLoc cover is completely seized in the "up" position. It won't budge in either direction. Completely seized.
I've tried lubricating it, using larger allen wrenches with more torque, using vice grips, etc. Even watched some youtube videos. But I can't get it to budge.
Any suggestions on how I can free it to either take it out or (ideally) recess it down for the swim season? Naturally, this one bugger is right by the steps into the pool.
