If any fitting is leaking, the likely fix is to cut the tubing back an inch or two. Over time, the tubing may change its shape
(decrease in size).
b) Seamer
i. Wrinkling
If wrinkling of the can body is occurring while in the seamer, check the pin gauge height the can-lift supply pressure can
also be adjusted. If wrinkling occurs, the pressure is likely too high or the pin gauge height is too short (the pin gauge
distance needs to be increased by moving the puck down).
ii. Shuttle to Seamer
If your seamer shuttle cylinder is not responding correctly, make sure a lid is not interfering with the sensor. A lid can
false trigger the sensor.
Also make sure water or beer is not on the lens. The sensor will light up, and display a value higher than 120, when it is
activated (when a lid is present).
c) Lid-Escapement
If too many lids come out of the chute, check the stainless rod beneath the spring steel clips. Make sure the rod sits in
the channel. The rod should not be riding out of the channel.
