Removing rear screen washer nozzle!!! Empty Removing rear screen washer nozzle!!!

Hi really enjoying my new Trident and all the little jobs that goes with it!!

Wondered if anyone can help me out on this one-
Rear screen washer not working - have disconnected rear pipe and when pump activated water flows out no problems but when it is re connected only a dribble comes through nozzle.
Tried to clear nozzle with a fine needle and even abit of air but again only a dribble so one thinks it's blocked somewhere in the nozzle assembly!
So looked to take this apart but not sure how to take the nozzle off - does it just pull off don't want to damage it!
Any ideas??!!!
Really don't want to go to garage so close to solving this one!!
Many thanks

I haven't removed a rear washer jet from one of these.

Generally when clearing/unblocking a washer jet a thin needle is too thin/pointed to be effective.
You need to use piece of thin good quality wire that is a bit thicker than a needle(I have an assortment of welding wire offcuts etc which I keep for this job). You'll have to try & find something a little bigger, good luck!
