NEED HELP WITH REMOVING COCKING IN GANITE

[deltaforce990]

hi

I am currently doing a job in which i am removing a old hot water dispence with a new hot water dispencer. The problem is the people who put in the old dispenser used a cocking to surround the thing. Right now the only part left is the metal base and the piping underneath it.

I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO REMOVE IT WITHOUT DAMAGING THE GRANITE OR HAVING TO CUT ANY OF IT. I DID TRY TO USE A PAINT THINNER AND A ACITONE. THEY DID NOT DO ANYTHING IF ANYONE CAN HELP THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

PS. SINCE I JUST SIGNED UP I REALLY AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE SITE BUT MY NAME ON THE SITE IS DELTAFORCE399
