If you are talking about the quick disconnect style of fittings (no threaded connections) the fitting is removed by pushing on a circular ring around the tube at the fitting connection. You can buy a special plastic ring release tool from Harbor Freight or most auto part stores fairly cheap. The ring tool snaps around the metal transmission line, then slides up to connector fitting. By pushing on the fitting release ring, you are releasing the tension of the spring fingers on the ring, allowing the fitting to be pulled apart. It can be tricky, you may have to push the fitting together to allow the spring fingers to "un-bite" the connection while you are pushing the release ring at the same time. Once it releases, it comes apart so easy, you wonder why it looks so difficult to remove. Go check out a Plumbing section at Home Depot and look at the "Sharkbite" style quick fittings--they are the same design and disconnect using the same principal.
