Disconnecting Hoses
Hoses are designed to snug fi rmly around the nozzle. If you need to remove a hose
for any reason, it may not pull off easily, even after unscrewing the compression
fi tting.
Usually, a connection will come free by squeezing the hose on top of the nozzle
and pulling away. Pulling in front of the nozzle will stretch the tubing and make it
tighter.
If this fails, cutting a small incision lengthwise (parallel) along the nozzle will free
it. If the nozzle is plastic, be especially careful when cutting a connection so as not
to damage it.
When a hose screw has been removed, it may have distorted the tubing beneath
it. This last small portion should be trimmed to ensure a perfect fi t with the next
connection.
The tip should always be re-cut if you needed to remove the tubing with an
incision.
