Have you done the "Teflon tape fix" to your Quattro?
If not, go up to the Search function and do a search on "Teflon". You'll have some reading, but it's pretty simple. First you need some plumbers' Teflon tape......applied to both ends of the elbow (about 3 - 4 wraps) in the front of the mask (after you pop it out of the front of the mask and off of the hose connector).

Here's a link to a thread with some pictures.

To get the elbow out of the front of the mask, just pull it straight out. It may take a little effort, but it'll come out......might help to give it a little push from the inside of the mask, too.
