Water Filter Tap Removal

Want2know

Im trying to remove a drinking water filter tap but Im having difficulty in removing the pipe connection (See attached). Any suggestions on how to remove?



I’ve tried disconnecting by pulling down on the connector linked to the black pipe but there is no movement.

The small dark grey collar should push up towards the fitting and release the pipe.

However it may not release, or if it does it may not seal again on another pipe, so you may be prepared to replace the fitting.

Likewise
The upper grey ring will push down and the fitting will slide off the brass.
the design is like found in tectite plumbing
google the link below to see how the idea works
