help! s410, empty air cylinder - can't refill

[gumbob]

Sometimes the valve sticks open when it is totally emptied. You might even hear the air coming out the end of the barrel. Try putting your finger over the end of the barrel while you give it a few pumps of air.(make sure its not loaded first!!)

You are going to have to get a divers bottle fill to re-seat the seals.

Where are you based? You haven't filled in your location!

thanks guys

i've tried cocking it

i imagine that a single stroke from the pump does not provide enough pressure to close the valve so during the up stroke the pump is simply sucking the air back out of the cylinder.

prob needs a service anyway so no probs

Cant remember - doesnt the manual say that the bolt has to be held back/open below 50 ?

Cam,

Fill in your location mate.

If you are in the South East of London, perhaps you can find your way to Greenwich and then you can use my bottles.

If its too far, perhaps someone else near your location can sort you out.
