Q: I may have an air leak, what should I do?  [return to top]
A: There are 2 places on your Clicker press to check for air leaks.

Make sure your air is turned on and press the dual palm buttons, and locate the leak by sound. If there is a leak, it will be coming from either the control box or the under side of the press.

1. If the leak is coming from the control box you will want to follow these steps.

1. Remove control box cover
2. Check all fittings to make sure that they are airtight.
3. If you are able to locate the leak, you will need to replace the faulty fittings. Ex. The hose to the barb (male fitting) is not properly seated. If this is the case, remove hose and cut ½" back. Re-connect hose and the clamp.

2. If the leak appears to be coming from the underside of the press, it is either coming from the bladder or the quick exhaust. Please contact Tippmann Industrial Products for further instruction on how to fix the leak.

Q: I have checked both the control box and the underside of the machine for leaks, but the leak appears to be coming from the compressor or the compressor hose. How should I proceed?  [return to top]
A: If you have determined that you have an air leak coming from your compressor hose, please refer to your compressor manual or contact your compressor manufacturer.

Q: I am getting inconsistent die cuts or the die is not going completely through the material,
what should I do?  [return to top]
