if you can, heat up the cone where the ajuster comes out and try to brake it loose, if you get it to move screw it out all the way and put some lube on the threads.

Be sure to use the correct 4 sided brake wrench, so you don't round off the corners. If that still doesn't get it to turn, you might need to let it soak with Kroil, or more likely you'll need to heat the fitting.
