changing the oil in a new to me tb145 and i want to clean the suction filter. I have it loosened from the bottom of tank but i cannot remove the suction hose. Any tips for how you get this off. Clips are loose and the hose rotates on pipe but there is no space to get it off!! I will try a heat gun at next attempt but if that fails ill have to cut and replace with new one?
Just to close this out ended up having to cut the hose and replace. Filter was spotless but at least now I know it’s done! Also had to take the pin out of the offset ram and push it to one side to allow the suction filter out.
