How is the tip and seal that the nozzle fits on replaced? I have 2 and they both leak after one use.I am using Di-limonene cleaner in the unit.

I have had no problems with mine, but the strongest chems I have put in it is WD 40.

you have to unscrew the nozzle and flip the connector/seals upside down, re-insert and re-tighten. See the image of the instructions on the product page product images.

Oh no! Mine just started leaking too and I'm not sure if it's too late to return it. Let me know what happens with yours. I really have enjoyed this dispenser until now.

I was never aware that Wahl clipper oil product bottles had a leaking problem. The two bottles I have are essentially one piece squeeze bottle (a bottle of flexible plastic that dispenses its contents when it is squeezed). I have had "no problems" with leakage.

I do not have other nozzles, but have found other question/answers stating the tips do fit. check the other questions. It does come with 2 different size tip holder

I don't know about those 2 fluids, but I use methanol and hydrogen peroxide in mine and it's the only brand I can find that the seals hold up very long. My guys love them. The sprayer tips we used on the old ones screwed right on these.

I do like it but the nozzle on it was leaking so I put my own nozzle on it. Have not used it outside since winter has set it in. Not sure I have used it enough to say I would recommend it now that I have used it for a little while.

I've been using my bottle almost 4 times a week. I've never had any leaks with it. Is there a seal under the cap. If so ot may be twisted and not setting.

Yes. Be careful getting the old one off. In my case I decided to leave the old one on and not use the new one. No leaks.

Must not have cleaned the canister and tank surfaces before replacing new seal as indicated in answer #1. Try cleaning your replacement seal too since it is sticking. Mine, with new seal, seems to work better now than it did when the toilet was new. Good luck!

Mine leaks too at the shut-off valve. I had the washers in place and I believe they were rightly used. It seems that there is another washer below the hex nut (which is not visible) and in my case perhaps that washer has issues. I can see water coming out from below the hex nut.I tried several times but could not stop the leakage. I am returning this piece and ordering another one. Let's see how is the other one.

Leaking how? I've never had a problem with mine. Open the air pressure release valve when not in use and screw it in tight before use again. But it shouldn't leak, it's all one piece.

The one we just replaced was at least 5 years old. We have another one that is still being used . The leak was very small and we could have fixed but we felt a new one would be better.

The gasket under the cap has a slit in it that is intended to fit on the disc-like protrusion near the inside end of the nozzle. Mine was installed like a normal gasket by the manufacturer. Once I put the gasket around the disc everything worked fine. Now the only time it leaks is when I try to hold up that much weight for too long and end up bending the cap connection by resting too much weight on the nozzle. Personal strength will determine how often you need to take a break when pouring, but I've had that problem with any gas container I've ever had that was more than 2 gallons.

Take the top apart clean it with a stiff bristle brush and lube the Oring with vaseline. Clean the canister threads with the brush and lube the top lip of the canister with vaseline. Hayward also makes a lubricant they supply with a new unit. Over tightening the unit just makes it harder to undo and no O-ring makes mine leak. Good Luck!

I just got one and it leaked out the hole in the back. I found the problem to be the way the tank was molded. The ribs in the tank shrink more during the molding process, so the area where the round rubber seal hits the tank isn't flat, hence the leak. I bought some epoxy for plastic and put it in the grooves where the seal hits. That seems to have stopped the leak even with a full tank of water. The epoxy cost about $6 at hardware. After the epoxy started to harden, I scraped off excess and the sanded with fine sandpaper to make smooth. It took 1/2 hr to do but worth the effort. I hope this helps someone that is frustrated with the unit.

I bought 2 of the cans, and yes they will leak, just like all other plastic nozzles. If I could make a recommendation to B&S;, it would be to produce the can with the old military lock on nozzle like we had in the military. Also, the can is awkward to hold with 1 hand and turning the nozzle with the other so the fuel will flow out, when it has 5 gallons in it.
