Title: pure freedom hose reel
Post by: Sean Dyer on February 16, 2012, 10:32:09 pm

Tried to replace inlet manifold (the black spindle in middle) as it was leaking

Had to undo every every bolt and pull whole thing apart

Then the hose lock connector on the end wouldnt unscrew so had to saw off

Then brass swan connector is stuck on , cant get it on no matter how hard i twist , any ideas how i can force it , its like a nut with a small notch sticking out each side so all you grab is them and they just dig in your hand

this is it the output elbow on this page

Ordered a new one but prob wont get it till monday tuesday so unless i can get this bugger off i will have to do ladder work till then :(

cant you free it with a hammer ???
put it in a vice and tap it round using the lugs
make sure its not left hand thread though  ;)
