kidsmurf2000 0 #1 September 25, 2001 Hi,I'm trying to unhook my reserve from my container to send the container off to the manufacturer for some mods... I thought I could do this myself (my riggers a 2 hour round trip!), but the metal attachment rings between the container and the reserve lines are stuck firm. Is there a trick to opening them up? Any special tools needed? I don't want to force it un-necessarily, but does it just require brute strength?Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 15 #2 September 25, 2001 A plyer and a screw driver are all that are needed. Use the Screw Driver to gan a leverage advantace on the Links. It should require a bit of brute strength but not too much.Just remember..... only a senior rigger and mount a reserve to a container.Be safe, be smooth, be fast..... and most importantly.... be phree Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites kidsmurf2000 0 #3 September 25, 2001 Thanks- I got them open with some brute strength; I'll be sure to get my rigger to reconnect everything once the mods are doneBlue ones!
