When have we EVER known you to take any responsibility for ANYTHING??



(Thor has his hammer back now btw)

Also, better using wood rather than a Screwdriver, as the metal to metal thing can distort the freak back if you give it a bit too much oomph.

Ranj it, ranj it hard!

Or use a plastic baby spoon

The Autococker manual suggests Vasoline.

You shouldn't use petroleum based lubricants like vaseline, stick with silicone based grease. O rings dont like petroleum based sustances.

To get your barrel off, try a pair of rubber gloves (marigolds). Wrap them round tightly and grip the barrel take up the tension and turn. Or the tool from b&q.

If anyone on the team has any problem like this, I always say , "Just giv it ere!"

Now this works, but you've got to be both gentle and firm.

Get someone to grip the marker solidly, get a grip on the barrel, either with a clamp or your hands, and lightly tap the end of the barrel nearest the marker, with a small hammer, while firmly turning the barrel. I mean lightly, it's the sharp shock of the hammer that will release the seal. The skill here is the light but accurate hammer blows.

The screwdriver idea worked this time, but for the future i'll use plastic or wood just incase it might damage the back.

i'm runnin a freak on my e-blade too, try adding the extra o-ring on the tip section, also when unscrewing grip both parts of barrel before unscrewing- it's worked every time for me.

See you again soon dude.

Ive put an o-ring on the back section & then only screwed it in far enough to squish the ring slightly (Its also nice cos it makes the FREAK letters the right way up )

This was the 1st time i'de taken it off so i think it was just on a bit too much.
