Troubleshooting tip #2; if the injector is clicking but not pulling solution.

First inspect the exterior, is the suction tube filter clean? If the filter is clogged, clean and replace. If the filter is clear then check the suction tube itself for cracks and replace if necessary.

If the suction tube is free of cracks or clogs then you may need to clean the suction tube fitting. To do this remove the Interlock Pin (#79 in your manual) and carefully pull out the inner cylinder. Then unscrew the suction tube fitting from the inner cylinder and clean and rinse, replace any damaged parts.

If this does not solve your problem then you would need to unscrew the external cylinder, separating if from the body of the injector. Take hold of the shaft and turn it 90 degrees in any direction to release it and pull the shaft from its housing. Remove the dosage piston and clean and inspect O-rings. To reinstall the dosage piston it is important that the thinner lips of the dosage piston be pointed up before reattaching to shaft.

Clean, dry and inspect inside the inner cylinder for scratches or cracks. If damaged, replace the inner cylinder.

You can now reassemble your lower end and the injector should now be clicking. If you need further assistance please feel free to contact our technical services department at 800-344-6767.
