What's wrong with the hex screw? Can't you just get another screw that works?

you are prolly using the wrong size key, keep tryin, i wouldnt run it like that, because it could fall off.

Was it new or used?

If new send it back. If used then....see if it can be repaired? Taped on is not really secure.

Solder it ... takes literally 2 seconds to unsolder a wire.

You can use a small flat blade screwdriver and hammer to tap/spin it out...

So you must have sat there with the wrong sized key and kept trying and trying... oh boy.
