Repair A Graco 695 Airless Paint Sprayer Not Priming Properly.

What happens here

To access the bottom fluid section ball, you need to remove the fluid hose. First, locate the large screw or retaining nut at the bottom of the U-shaped fluid hose connection. If it's too tight to unscrew by hand, use a hammer to gently tap it loose. Once loosened, unscrew it by hand or with large channel locks if necessary. Then, gently work the fluid hose off the connection by moving it back and forth. You may need to lightly tap the hose with a hammer if it's stuck.

Goal: Detaching the fluid hose to access the bottom check ball.

What they say

Hide

one of the problems. And down here, it has a large screw. And I typically just use a hammer to actually just loosen that thing up. And I'm just going to unscrew it by hand. You have a large pair of channel locks, you use channel locks. I like just using a hammer. Going to tap that thing loose. Now, this nut is just going to fall loose. We're going to tip up this sprayer. It's a lot easier if you have one some two people and one person holding the sprayer in the back. Sometimes that's not the case. Now you can just take and work the this hose off. Just move it back and forth and that hose will just come right off.
