ALGE uses nylon locking nuts to hold circuit boards, batteries and other pieces securely in place. The nylon keeps the nut from coming loose in transit. You will need a 5.5 mm nut driver to remove these nuts. The best one is made by WIHA of Germany. It is the model 265 SW 5.5 Order one from your local electronics store or by special order from Brad at Green Brook Electonics; 732-968-3500.
