Troubleshooting
Riser does not fit securely onto the chamber base.
Check for debris or damage on both the chamber base connection and the riser's seal. Ensure the riser is correctly aligned. If using lubricant, apply it evenly. Verify that you are using a 460mm base and the correct 215mm riser.
Leak detected at the connection point.
Disassemble the connection and inspect the seal for damage or debris. Reassemble, ensuring the seal is seated correctly and the push-fit connection is fully engaged. If the seal is damaged, it may need replacement. Ensure the riser is fully pushed home.
Difficulty pushing the riser onto the base.
Ensure the connection surfaces are clean and smooth. A small amount of water-based lubricant on the seal can aid assembly. Check that no obstructions are present within the chamber base socket.
