Un-seize it. Spray wd-40 on the ring and it a hammer to hit it gently to free it up. Then use the C spanner on it. if it dont move, then put the C spanner on it and then bang it with a hammer! should free it up :)

next time make sure you get stainless threads :D

I had some very early KW`s from before they started to use stainless. Even through copperslip they would seize!
