Doing my first major service on a Suzuki DF6 and the final bit is to change the gear oil .... but I can't unskrew the top or bottom plug. They appear to have some sort of rubber/plastic gasket.

The only tools I have are a long handled phillips head screwdriver and a cordless drill but I can't get these screws to budge.

Is there another tool I can use? I don't think spraying with penetrating oil will work because they look like they are well sealed.

Haffiman - thanks. It worked a treat. Should have purchased one of these years ago!
