As VTC says, an impact driver, tightening first, or if you haven't got an impact driver, a hex bit of the right size held in a ring spanner, then whilst tightening it as much as you dare, hit the end of the bit with a hammer.
thanks will try this as no impact driver left it soaking in wd40 since yesterday

motor went whiney then bang typically no longer available so got equivalent macallister 2400 which.... has a single blade rather than 2 small blades so will see how this goes got £10 discount as bandq member and has lasted over a year
