Tight Screws

I never posted in this section before, hope I'm doing it right. But I have a question. I just got myself a Power Morpher and the screws are too tight to unscrew. Is there a trick to loosen them up?

I've read through Rusty Screws Solutions will any of those tips help?

You can heat them up a bit with a soldering iron. This will soften the plastic enough to loosen them.
