matt_hooks 188 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 There is a one way valve in the gun. You need to release the line pressure (200 odd bar) to safely remove the hose. If you try to pull it without releasing the pressure then you risk the end of the hose whipping around and doing some serious damage (not to mention O-ring damage!) Quote Link to post
