PTFE Tube stuck in Extruder
Hello everyone,
I’ve been experiencing frequent filament jamming issues with one of the extruders. While attempting to resolve it again, I discovered that the PTFE tube is stuck and cannot be removed. I’m aware of the correct procedure — pushing down the black retaining ring while gently pulling out the tube — but this method isn’t working, even after multiple attempts.
Does anyone have suggestions for how to safely remove a stuck PTFE tube? Additionally, could this issue be the root cause of the recurring filament jams?
Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Floh

I detached the metal fitting (where you can insert the tube). There you can just unscrew. It's broken and I just ordered replacement.
Best regards
