how do i remove the filament tube from the hot end device... when ibuilt it i excitedly just put thetube in, never routed it properly in the wire control 'sleeve'.

what do i do to remove it properly fromn the hot end, and the ez-struder? it seems like it there for good!

I think the HE280 is the same as the hot end for the old V2 in this respect...The black ring in the center of the top of the hot end is a PTC (push-to-connect) connector. Push it down (towards the nozzle) to release the Bowden tube (in theory). If that doesn't work easily something more creative may be required.
