how do you stop the o-ring lesking

a) you dont have the nut that screws in the cartridge tight enough, you must use a socket wrench for this for this (17mm.),dont tighten too much or you could crack the casing. B) you are using the old "O" wrings, all new cartridges come with new wrings now, but some models still allow use of the old ones, if your cartridges come with new "O" wrings be sure to throw the old ones out. C) be sure to have the cartridges in the right container slots, and be sure that the cartridges are centered, this is usually the cause of most leaks. p.s.; had mine since 2008 not a problem yet. a) you dont have the nut that screws in the cartridge tight enough, you must use a socket wrench for this for this (17mm.),dont tighten too much or you could crack the casing.

My o-ring leaked at first, and my dad jut kept taking it off and putting it back on and tightened it until it quit leaking. I thing what happened is that it wasn't going o the threads correctly. I hope this help you!!! Be blessed!!!

If you mean the one on the bottom where the new filters go, i put some silicon grease on them and used the wrench as they suggested and snugged it, let it sit and snugged it again. I did not want to crack the case so made sure the threads aligned correctly and then did as you read. If you mean the one on the faucet, i took out the ring with the screen at the top and put in an over size washer to stop the leak on my delta faucet.

Well, I far as I can see there is no way to stop the o-ring leaking. I had reinstalled this product at least 3 or four times and still the product leaked. After each installation, the product would be fine but eventually it will leak again. I read the instruction sheets very carefully and even went online to get as much information as I can about installing it properly. Still the product leaked. I was terribly disappointed with this product and returned it and got my refund without a problem. I am still searching the net for another filter in the meantime. Hope this answers your question...;-)

If you are talking about the O ring that is in the fixture, you may have to use a jewelry or optical screw driver to remove the O ring. As it relates to the filter itself, there are no consumer repairs possible, and a new filter has to be used.

you need to lubricate the o-ring before the first use, after that it should be good for sometime. I would check it after each use to be safe, just a general inspection works well.

Put a dab of oil on your finger and rub it around the rim of the lid and you have your problem solved. Don´t put too much oil so that the lid will not come loose.

You can get o-rings at your local hardware store. I cut a hose clamp/ worm clamp in half. Then with some nippers remove a couple of the "ladder rungs" leaving one for the hook. Then place a small piece of old tire tube around the handlebars to keep the assembly from drooping. Tighten clamp snug. This is my super tough mount. Crashes well.

Nothing. They offer to sell you replacement o-rings at $1 a piece plus shipping. Not sure if I remember the price correctly since I did not take their offer. I simply stopped using it.

Two handles unhook the clamps that push down on the lid. Remove those first. The second two handles lift upward. It will be snug, but keep lifting those handles until the lid comes off. Then lube the O ring with silicone grease or Vaseline so that it will be easier next time.

More details about the ring, it is a CHOKE. It prevents as much air from being mixed with the fuel as it flows out of the orifice. This is meant to prevent the fairly explosive puff that happens when you first light this heater. I still completely ignore it though. Just turn the fuel valve to max and repeatedly click the igniter (by turning it ALL the way against the spring at the end) until it lights. Keep your face away from the front of the heater when you do.

hold the silver rim (near the top) and turn to the right (clockwise) and lift off. it's kind of counter-intuitive since the tendency is to turn it in the other direction. I had trouble too.

So as one other said, they don't always hold pressure. But, I think it does most of the time. My tennis balls have enough bounce it has to be. As for life, mine is 6m old and working about the same as when I got it. I did lube with I think some vaseline. Without that it really drags when you put it together. Some say that's the wrong thing to lubricate it with. I'm guessing you can get another o-ring at any good hardware store.

I had the same problem. Fortunately my large housing gasket was still in very good shape so I reused it and discarded the O-ring.

I don't think the blender uses an o ring only the gasket. My recollection is that the gasket is a seal between the container and the blade section and the base which screws onto the base.

That means the O-ring is making a good seal but they tend to also grip! With the light facing away from you and right-side-up, the right hand end unscrews. I just grab both ends and twist till it comes loose. Maybe a little hot water run on the end cap would help, maybe not. If it's really stuck bad, wrap a rag around the cap and use pliers for leverage but be gentle. Also, be careful not to cross-thread the threads when you put it back together. It's easy to mess that up because the threads are fairly fine. Just push it in against the spring and then go backwards till the threads click into place and it should screw together easily till you feel the O-ring squish a little.

If my filter is extremely hard to take apart, I use a rubber mallet and tap the housing that screws on in a counter clockwise direction and it starts to unscrew. When repacing the filter use silicone grease to lubricate the O-rings.

Use a punch in the back of the grip. Press the knotch in and downward. Should pop right out.

Forgot to inform you can reuse the same o-ring. Inspect for damage. Plan your job and Start to finish at most should take 25 min. If your taking longer than that your doing something wrong.

Pull back on the lever mounted on the handle so the little arrow below hits the D. Then squeeze the left hand lever and you'll be moving forward. Release and you'll stop. Good luck!
