I've scoured the web and asked all the AI's and can't figure this out. The manifold on my sprayer has 3 ports. The first goes to the wand gun sprayer and the middle one has a (supposedly) quarter turn cap on it, and the third has a hose attached that just goes back into the tank to recirculate for mixing purposes.

I want to add a line to the center port to go to a new nozzle I installed on the back of the quad. The problem is that I cannot get that (supposedly) quarter turn cap to turn. I have really reefed on the thing to the point I feel like it is going to break. I have turned, I have pushed and turned, I have pulled and turned. It just does not turn.

If anyone has experience with these things please help me out. How the hell do I remove this thing?

BTW, I tried to post this in AskPoal but it will not let me attach the picture because it does not allow link posts. Someone should fix that.

It's really odd because there's really no rocket science behind it.

These caps/nozzles/adapters just need to be twisted CCW to unlock.

That's how I was looking at it. I feel like it's about to break I'm putting so much pressure on it. Maybe I'm not pushing in on it hard enough while turning. I'll let you know if I figure it out at Tractor Supply tomorrow.

Please do and let me know.

I'm really curious on why they are causing such an issue.
