Hit the bolt with a hammer and heat it up if necessary. I'd remove the #7 assembly first.

It has to move. Get a BFH, or somehow use its own hydraulics to pull down on it or up on the base. I agree with Dave, take #7 right out of the equation.

If the cable is disconnected and the lock plate still won't move, it's probably seized on the pivot from rust or old grease. Try taking the pressure off the boom by moving it slightly, then soak the pivot area with penetrating oil and work the lock back and forth. Sometimes they're under a bit of load and won't release until the boom position is just right.
