That's why I put a spring clamp on the hose where it slips over the

I still haven't mastered filter removal...



Here's an alternate method. Cut a groove around the outside of the drain
hose, maybe 3/8'' from the end that attaches to the quick drain. Slip a
rubber O-ring into this groove. The O-ring size should be such that it
alllows the hose to slip on and off the quick drain with modest force
applied, but provides enough clamping force to keep it in place otherwise.
Finding the right size may take some trial-and-error.
