I have 2 pens that the writing tip seems to move back into the pen while writing. The refill is tight in the transmission. Any thoughts on what I need to do these were PSI SL Im new to turning only 1 year in

Thanks

I have had this problem in 2 ways.
1. The transmission is pressed in too far. The way to check this is to undo the refill a turn or so and see if that corrects the problem. If it is, you need to reinstall the transmission.
2. A transmission that doesn't have a detent or lock. Many SL trannys will have a click or bump when you twist it out. This locks the point in the out position. The way to check this is to take out the refill and twist the transmission. If you don't feel the "lock" you don't have it.
