That looks like a city water inlet.

Thanks O.L.63! Obvious newbies here that haven't ordered the manual yet. Was having a hard time getting the cap off. Is there a trick to it? Any help greatly appreciated. Peace. 8)

That definitely looks like your city water connection. Any auto-parts store will stock a spray for loosening rusted nuts/bolts. Just spray and wait a bit for it to break thru the rust some, then you should have better luck. Be patient...

Take a big pliers to it. If you see the whole thing including the pipe turning stop and soak it with PB Blaster.
