Sled not holding pressure

There may be small fluctuations due to atmospheric pressure or temperature changes – this is 
normal. 

However if large loss of pressure is detected then it is possible that the two part Halkey-Roberts 
valves may have become slightly slack in transit. 

To tighten the valve halves use the special 
wrench. 

First ensure valve is closed. (see instructions above) 

Then fully insert the castellated part of the wrench into the valve holding the handle horizontal 
with the valve outer surface

Turn clockwise so that the firm pressure is needed to move the wrench.

CAUTION: Do not over tighten. Over-tightening can crack the valve nut causing air leakage.

If the loss of pressure continues contact us for further advice.
