removing the hydraulic strainer on a 2444

[Chantyr]

I am trying to remove the strainer for the hydralic fluid out of the front of the resivor casting. The tube that is part strainer assy is to thin to be able to grab on to, does anyone know if there is a tool for this, or has anyone made a tool to grab this from the inside of the tube? Not sure if i should heat this or what the trick is, I had it out a long time ago it just presses in and has an o-ring around the outside of it to seal. Not sure if something corroded, any ideas would be great,

IH never had atool for this .it is only held in by the compression on the oring seal.

I found the best solution on this was to pull it out, I took a bar of steel and put a slight hook on it so i could grag the inside edge, and found something to pry it out, easy peasy....
