What happens here

Locate the filter housing on your Graco 695 paint sprayer. This housing should typically be hand-tight. Attempt to unscrew it counter-clockwise by hand. If the housing is stuck due to dried paint or overtightening, you may need a large pair of channel locks to loosen it. Once loose, completely unscrew and remove the housing to expose the filter.
