Better get some muscle into it! Wrap a leather strap around the locking screw to get a firm grip? Actually I think they both just screw against each other on a thread cut in the metal tube. So it might be easier to grab the larger objective lens bit and try to turn that, rather than try to turn the narrow locking screw?
