Remove Angle Stop Valve

RIDGID One Stop Plumbing Wrench Review!
What happens here
To demonstrate removal, the presenter uses the same setup with the installed angle stop valve. He inserts the lug end of the smaller wrench back into the valve to provide a secure hold and prevent rotation. He then uses the 15/16" open end of the main wrench body to engage the compression nut. By turning the main wrench counter-clockwise while maintaining a firm grip on the valve with the lug tool, he loosens the compression nut, allowing the angle stop valve to be easily removed from the copper pipe.
Goal: The presenter demonstrates the removal of an installed angle stop valve from a copper pipe, again utilizing both parts of the Ridgid One-Stop Wrench to loosen the compression nut effectively.
