Dear forum, hopefully a simple one this...
What kinda fitting is this and is it safe for a complete noob like me to remove and put back without leakage?
Seems like I should turn the round brass ridged thing with some mole grips carefully while holding the body with another. Am always weary when it comes to water and especially brass fittings. I need to replace a dishwasher float but need to disconnect it first to get it out. Already turned the blue cut-off a quarter turn (felt a bit of resistance towards the end but should be enough?). Incidentally, why do dishwasher inlets have these sorts of enlarged plastic things on the side? Cheers for any advice!
