Troubleshooting
Vacuum Issues
Check your chuck! Vacuum is met when the correct chuck size is chosen and chuck/base seal correctly. See above resources for more info. For piece parts, carefully screw on the base, don't cross the threads! Also make sure to screw as tightly as the chuck allows, but not further. These parts are plastic and can easily deteriorate if abused.
