Condenser replacement

[AntMB]

Apologies if in the wrong place, couldn't see where else to put it.

Replacing my condenser today and stuck at this point, separating the pipes from the condenser fitting.

I've removed the nut on the pipes side, its well stuck and I'm not sure how much force to put on it and where.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Just my 3p worth. But do the not part upstream ?? Maybe worth a look on 7zap at the schematics epc.

That's where it comes apart. But this is looking like it's going to be a chop it off job and replace what I have to, to get it out.

It's probably not a usual DIY job, doing air con. No other option, I'm going to chop it off!
