just that you need to be very careful - the rubber hose shrinks and hardens with age, and will not pull off. Better to take a NEW single-edge razor blade, (or other SHARP cutter) and carefully cut the hose lengthwise to get it off the pump. The reason for a sharp cutter is to use the least amount of force you can, and still get the job done. The small nipple for the hose is rather fragile, and it doesn't take much to break it. Ask me how I know...! ;-) Any way, both of these items will not survive the disassembly process. The hose is lots cheaper than the pump, but you decide...
