Title: Degassing gauntlet
Post by: Tygon on November 09, 2018, 05:36:14 PM
For the life of me I cannot figure this out.  The hole is shaped so you can only put the key in one way.  If I give it a quarter turn it spins easily and falls deeper into the hole.  The key is now down against the spring u can see before inserting.  And the key is sitting kind of cock eyed.  It is obviously not in the right spot

I got it.  I don’t think it worked the way it was suppose to but I figured it out.  Nothing big.  Will probably work now if I try again but I don’t need to.  So i’ll Deal with it next time if need be.

I’m sure you figured this out. On mine the gun has to be un-cocked for the degassing tool to work.

Just an FYI, you can also unscrew the bottle before degassing and then you are just releasing the air that's still in the rifle without emptying the entire tank.  Makes it much easier to get it back up to max pressure because after reattaching the bottle, you just have to top it off as opposed to filling the entire bottle.
