Replacing a beer line

[chuckster_ca]

Hi,
I'd like to replace my beer line for my kegerator system. It's obviously quite easier at the coupler end but how do I get inside the draft tower?

There is probably a cap on the top of the tower that comes if. In there you will see the hose clamped onto the shank. Remove the not on the back on the shank to remove the whole assembly and then you will be able to replace that line.

Thanks Ed.

Ok, I got the cap off and I saw where the hose is attached to the barbed nipple. It looks like there is a bolt that can be loosened but I don't have any tools specialized enough to get into that tight opening?

Is there a special tool that I need?

[edramshaw]

There is. I use a small wrench that fits fine but I have heard of difficulties. I would go to sears and look around. I think mine are the smaller robo grip pliers which I picked up there.
