They are a little tight for fingers. :(

Give the nut a little WD40, tap it gently with a hammer, then use Channel-lock pliers (AKA, water-pump pliers).

Fragile, the nut can be broken of its outside edges :oops:, so procede carefully. The nut may be available as a separate part.

More leverage can be gained by jamming a long stick in the outside scoop, and "biasing" with pressure counterclockwise.

(Lefty-loosey). ;)
