Support material is hard to remove

Hi,

I always try to not use support material if possible, on my previous Anet A8 printer with and old version of some slicer I had no issue removing support material. I just knew that it wouldn't look great where it had been, most of it or all of it came off easily.

But with my Core One I have some issues with the default settings, it's hard to remove.

In the image below I printed some wheels for a Husqvarna Automower and it was the worst yet. To the left is the normal 0.4 nozzle and I thought that was hard to remove, using pliers etc. Then I got to the one on the right, that's printed with default settings using a 0.8 nozzle and I basically couldn't remove it. I used knives, pliers and even a chisel. It's hard to tell where the support material ends and where the model starts. This goes for both the examples, but the 0.8 was almost impossible. I'm sure I removed more than support here and there.

Just wondering if anyone else have this problem and what settings you recommend? Thanks!
