What kind of internal baffling does the can have? (Steel wool is not good; it will eventually separate and plug the lines.)

No baffling, this catch can is empty. it's totally up to you how to make a baffle or you can spend more money on a different product.

There is no fluid in there. There was grease packed in the disconnect, that dries out and causes it to fail.

no....and to be honest when I first got this it worked great however lately I have been having trouble working it on some cans....you may want to reconsider this.

The contents of the tube should squeezed out easily to be mixed with the contents of the can. I had no issues with my tube. Make sure you squeeze the tube starting from the bottom end then working your fingers towards the top. The contents from the tube should flow like toothpaste.

The threads are very coarse, crusty with the galvanizing, and not functional for routine removal/replacement. They did work, in a crude sort of way, but did not seal. I wrapped the outside with self-healing silicone tape and protected that from UV with a wrap of black duct tape. Now it doesn't leak. The can is very durable and usable; and though a little disappointed with those threads, I like it very much.

That's only happened to me once. Pop the spool cap off (squeeze the two sides and pull it) and look at the spool of line. It's possible you have some sort of knot in the line stopping it feeding freely. If so, pull it out and rewind it. I've had very few problems with it, though if you're whacking weeds close to concrete or stone, for instance, it will wear quite fast, requiring stopping every minute or two to feed more line. BTW, you should hear the line feed click just before the head stops turning. The thing is designed for about a 1/4" feed on each stop/start.

it does not let line out till you stop it, make sure the line is wound correctlyif it does not spin it's broken send it back

The entire can is aluminum inside and out. It works well. You have to pump it to build pressure before use.

It could be that there is too much moisture or it is too compact. I have seen both. I wedge a 1x4 between each layer on the outside so they don't compact each other as much.

I agree with Joseph in that it sounds like the tubing may not be firmly seated into the coupling. Cleaning the end of the tubing with emery paper or fine steel wool first should also help.

I haven't had this problem but did you put a little oil on the spot it seals, like the book says to. Otherwise I wonder if there is something wrong with your pressure canner. Mine has sealed really well every time.

This should not be occurring; it should pop back out. You're creating a vacuum somehow. Check the lines to make sure they are not kinked or plugged.

Not that I am aware of`. The biggest issue is the can opening but I transferred most to a different container.

Make sure it's unplugged as it's not good for the motor to run without water through it. From memory it slides and there are faint raised lines to grip on to. I used a skewer to do move it.

Yes it is really bad. This is obvious factory defect. The main purpose of this unit is to insulate and contain internal high temperature from external cooler temperature and prevent or slow down as much and as long as possible process of cooling hot liquid down. This unit probably has internal crack or leakage of hot liquid in to insulating space between internal container and external walls, or it has no insulation material in that space. Just my logical opinion.

No, I clean mine with steel wool and have had no problems. Bad problem is the even heat distribution isn't really good, but worth the money. I'm still using mine after almost two years!

not really sure since I have not yet ran into that problem. However, it sounds like the coating is just wearing off.
