Troubleshooting

Jaw not engaging properly with fitting

Ensure the jaw is correctly seated on the fitting and that the pressing tool is fully closed. Check for any obstructions or debris on the jaw or fitting.

Leaking connection after pressing

Verify that the correct pressing sequence was followed and that the tool completed its cycle. Check if the correct jaw size was used for the pipe and fitting. Inspect the pipe and fitting for damage prior to pressing.
