Troubleshooting
Pump is not dispensing liquid
Ensure the intake tube is fully submerged in the liquid and that the pump is securely attached to the container. Check for any blockages in the intake tube or nozzle.
Leaking around the pump seal
Verify that the pump is properly seated on the container opening. If the container opening is damaged or irregular, a secure seal may not be possible.
Slow or weak dispensing
Check for any air leaks in the connection to the container. Ensure the intake tube is not kinked. Pump more vigorously.
