What is the purple rubber piece for? Instructions do not mention anything about it.

I've bought eight (8) Dash Cam camera's from this seller and I didn't see a "purple rubber piece" in any of the ones I bought. You may have something newer than I have.

yeah those two peices are rubber gaskets. they serve two purposes, the first is to stop the nozzle from strtching your paint and the second one, more importantly, is to help keep the nozzles from moving around. as for the metal bit that the others have mentions I have no clue what that is for or even where it could go.

Idk about that fit It's a two piece set the black part is rubber and it doesn't fit snuggly unless you pop on purple part

Eventually, the black rubber begins to disintegrate a little and form a dark edge. At that point, you'd want to discard the unit I think.. After several years I decided to toss mine because of the disintegration.

I have the same problem. There's a small piece of something (may not be metal). I'm returning it.

Honestly, I really have no idea what that little part is for but I just let it float on top and have no problems. I don't have the packaging anymore either to see if there was any explanation. I was wondering the same thing myself. My daughter has one as well and she doesn't know either. :-) Gotta love that. It just makes me smile. Somethings are just unexplainable. Hum??? Ha! Good question.

Hi Natalie, The purple case itself does not open. To remove the hood and the cord, look on the left side. The top is the hose, the middle is the settings and the last one is where the hood and cord are stored. Pull up on the slot and remove the hood and attach it to the hose. Pull out the plug and plug it into a socket. Set your setting and you're good to go.

If you pull the tow sections apart (they will not break) you can see a plastic piece that has a screw. When you twist the piece when it is in the other piece, the screw causes the plastic to expand and the friction locks the lower end in place. I suspect somehow the screw was extended to far and the plastic is not contacting the inside of the upper piece to allow the screw to enlarge the plastic to lock it.

I took off the rubber caps at bottom and used a pipe cutter from Home Depot - just one of the little wheel cutters for copper pipe - was pretty easy. Then I put the rubber caps back on an you cannot tell I did anything.

I didn't receive any instructions either, but relied on the reviews to explain how to use it... it is very easy, and putting a rubber band around the stem up near the knob really helps keep the clunky noise down...

Mine was purple too. But I had to remove it because the keys kept sticking underneath it. :-(

I think there is a rubber piece on the top. Pull that back and it might be in there. Haven't used mine in a while.

There is a wraparound soft rubber piece that you put on first, then a hard plastic "shell" that goes on over that. It is like most but seems more secure and protective than many others out there. I prefer this over anything else out there.

It should have a black rubber O-ring. Is it missing? And I was not impressed with this unit at all.

It's a special non-hardware item. You will have to contact the company, hopefully they will send another free of charge. Randy

It's a rubber step with a black logo. I wouldn't try to remove it as the step would be smaller and wouldn't be non slip.

I have no idea. I never use it as I don't know how and there were no included instructions.
