Similarly, I have regretfully noticed that some of the hoses on mine
have to be removed essentially one-handed, from something not solidly
secured to the structure. Like the dual filters and electric pumps on
the 914. If such is one's case, might be wise to test a sample first,
as you'd need only to see how it comes off after a week or two, when a
stiff hose marries itself to the hose barb. Then square the removal
force to simulate actual maintenance experience!
Best,
