Not sure where your level of mechanics are, not to insult you, but first use the largest screw driver that will fit into the slot. I use an 18" long heavy spade screw driver to remove mine. If that still will not get it you may need to use heat. If I were a betting man I would say a super sized flat head screw driver would do the trick. But as a last resort, try heat. Not to much but enough is the best description I can give on heating the bolt. Hope this helps.

There's a handy tool called an impact driver that you can get at most tool shops that may be just the ticket for you...it's a screwdriver that you strike with a hammer and an internal helix transmits that force into a twisting motion either to tighten or loosen stuck screws...check it out and good luck!
