Tap cooler bottle filler help

[SanPancho]

Was given a tapcooler setup with bottling rig and one for canning. Never paid attention, stuck in a drawer for ages, but now want to start using it. The problem is that while fiddling with it I pulled the extension tube out of the main body. I can’t get it back in. Anybody able to show how that goes back in? Lots of videos showing use but didn’t see anything about disassembly or rebuild. Tried tapcooler website but that seems worthless, no info at all really.

Thanks
