How to disconnect water pipe/pump push fitting?

[johns11]

Hi all. I'm having problems with my water pump and wish to remove it to see if I can find the issue.

Unfortunately I'm stuck at step one... removing the water pipe from it.

Does anyone know how to disconnect this water pipe fitting please?? I don't want to cause damage that can't be undone.

Thanks for your help

It should be possible to slide the collar slightly towards the elbow, and then the joint should pull apart.

Push the outer ring into the fitting while pulling the pipe out. Many examples on YouTube, eg

There are different types but they share the same principles.
