Trouble with a McKenzie Penworks Coyote click…

[bliorg]

Hi, all -

After working initially this McKenzie Coyote click pretty much stopped working. Tip never completely retracts, and only sometimes (infrequently) extends. I am sure I have something incorrectly configured, but not sure what to do. Ideas?

Thanks!

I know this sounds silly, but do you have the spring in the right direction?

Here is a video that they published on assembly...

Most of mine have worked, but about 2 of 10 jam on me.

Not silly at all - have done that more than a couple times. Not the case here though. I watched the video (thanks for that - did not know it existed) and he dropped the cartridge in from the top. I was installing it by removing the tip and inserting from there. Don't ask me why. Now it works perfect. Yep - here's my shocked face, lol.

I'm glad it helped!
