Troubleshooting

Pan leaks fluid

Inspect the pan for any cracks or damage. Ensure it is placed on a level surface to prevent spills.

Ensure the pan's capacity is not exceeded. Position the pan directly beneath the drainage point and consider using it for smaller jobs if the fluid volume is very large.
