Hi Digga
Yep these can get very tight , my advice is if its working ok , and you dont have to remove it , dont !
They have a small lip that is an interference fit in the rubber .
If you have to remove it , try gently wiggling it as you pull the plug , being carefull not to to pull on the wire.
These are my pet hates on the GPX's !!!

G'day Travis

Mate that is normal, on all the GPX machines from the 4000 to the 4500 & the 5000 these plugs are all damn tight, but they do come out and like you say it feels like for sure it's gonna break.

Just be firm with it and it will come out.

cheers dave
