Replacing glass tube on iJoy maxo?

I need help on this one. I cracked the glass on my iJoy maxo and just got my replacement glass in. How do I take this apart to replace it? Are there any instructions or videos out there to help me with this.

Maybe on YouTube. We'll I can't actually find one that shows complete disassembly but when you take of the bottom to replace the coil it looks like it may be fitted with orings to hold the glass in place. Probably be super hard to grasp and pull apart with broken glass so you may be able to just break the rest of the glass off then lube the orings with some juice and slide back together.

5:29 is where he disassembles the tank

I soaked it in hot water and then broke the rest of the glass. Worked like a charm! Thanks!!

Yesterday I dropped my Rafale on carpet for the 1,000th time and filled it to get soaked with e-Liquid~! Took 2 pairs of Channel Lock Pliers to get the fucker apart with no glass left in it. All the glass fell out trying to unscrew it~! I didn't see any Lock-Tite on the threads but damn was it a bitch. Then when I went to reassemble it I said where are the O-Rings??? Then I went into the garbage pail and found them stuck to the glass and after a few minutes of trying to remove them I said Screw This~! So I went and found the parts package and just replaced them. Have them soaking in water to see if it is the e-Liquid or they glued them on.

Update: I just went and checked and those O-Rings are glued no way after soaking so long e-Liquid would still hold them so firm. I guess they glued the threads?

I've had that happen before a freemax mesh pro I believe.

I have never had this happen before, so very surprised to see this. If I wanted I could get them off, but my time is worth more and I have one more set and a glass tank so I will worry about it then.
