Did anyone have trouble with leaking since you don't use the wrench to close it? I did and want to know how to not get it on my living room floor?

I had that problem once, but not every time. I suspect overfilling might be the cause.

I have one of these Upholstery Nailers and don't have this issue but you can control the pressure with an inline regulator which I have on mine, it's at the end of the hose nearest to the gun with a quick disconnect.... Hope this assist you somehow.

Hi there! I tend to slow simmer things for hours and have never had a problem with anything dripping off of it. I LOVE this thing. It is my favorite kitchen tool. :D

Make sure you have all the air out of it when you screw the top on. I find that helps keep it from leaking.

As the others pointed out, you need to be square to the stem and apply with firm pressure but it'll hold on good, if you let it go and move the hose around too much it'll leak air but to be honest, I've never seen a 'hands free' chuck that was 100% leak free. I generally don't clamp it on, I hold the lever on the chuck in the open position with my thumb, push down to get my reading and operate the inflate/deflate lever with the other hand. The operation is quick and simple, so to me it's hardly worth messing around with locking it on. It is worth it - I wouldn't want to be without it.

I haven't had any issues with leaking yet, either.Used it twice, rained a bit each time. Biggest disadvantage is that pole in the middle, but it's also an easy way to set it up...just limits the sleeping room to around the edges.

I had a second thought about the waste king - It was my fault but I thought you and everyone should be aware. The tightening nut at the top of the unit needs to be watched for loosening by itself, when it does, it leaks in the cabinet. Just keep it tight and it works great.

I have the same issue, if your real careful to not squeeze at all, it leaks less.

I have never had any problems with this. I'm always on the go and toss mine around quote a bit in drawers, bags, every which way, you name it, and have never had any leakage issues.

Ya-ehs! But it is plastic and I have used it four times (semiannual check for two years). First turn off water then BLEED out pressure (will lessen the loosen process) then recheck the orientation to loosen the canister (common mistake of tighten instead loosen). Remember of the oring when tighten so don't go to town because you will have to loosen it out later tighten as it not leaking not good'N tight tight then you may end up with buying the new wrench. Good luck!

Mine doesn't leak, maybe put some pipe tape around the threads see if that works

I had that problem all the time. I finally got so disgusted with it that I just threw the whole thing away and got a new machine. Sorry, it won't stop leaking.

Hi Shawn. We had the same problem.we started the installation at three o'clock so that it will end up closer and then back to it off and install the clamp. We had no leak.

Sounds like you're not closing it all the way, you should hear a snap when it's closed all the way. I have 3 & none of them leak, they've been great!

Ours is leaking uncontrollably. We had the maintenance guy in our building come put it in so I know it's not an installation error.

Mine leaked a little too. I put some Vaseline on the threads and tighten it good. Hasn't leaked since but it's a pain opening it sometimes
