Gilmour & Spray Doc& Poly Tank Sprayer Pump Assembly Questions & Answers
Won't hold air & pump
I loss pressure, read the manual, took the slide out and saw that the o-ring was crimped out of shape, thus the loss of seal and no pressure! Popped it back to position and it spray is now powerful as day 1...patience is rewarded!
I have a gilmour xp30.
there is an O-ring in the plunger tube that can slip of its channel seating if it becomes dried out. To put it back you need to disassemble the handle from unit. At base of handle is a lock that looks like a cross. It is difficult to turn because it has small protrusions at the ends that snap into holes in the collar. Once you turn them and the pop out the handle can be removed exposing the pump shaft. The O-ring is probably what you hear rattling and will be loose in bottom of tube. Just put it back into its grooved seat, slide plunger back into unit, rotate the x-lock till it snaps back into place and unit should work again. I have oiled o-ring but that did not last long and might get oil on plants. I now just spray some water down the top to lubricate the O-ring when it seems dry.
I have a 3-gallon gilmour sprayer--has worked
This situation sounds like a plugged hose. Keep taking apart and you will find something plugging a small orifice, somewhere... Always flush with clean water after each use, many garden sprays crystalize over time......
Tank will not pressurize after pushing the pump
the reason it might not pressurize is there might be a hole in your tank or hose to the spraier itself if it has holes in the hose get a new one put it on the tank and handle. if hole in the tank duct tape it or seal it with a sealent. but it wont pressurize with a hole because the air comes in and out of the hole. hope this helps you
Tiller Blades not working
Eric,
I don't have any breakdown any more, but I believe on this tiller the chain box is bolted together with a 1,000 bolts ( well it seems like that many). remove the fender (Shield) and then you can start taking the bolts out of the cover casing of the chain cover. I have found more broke chains than broken gears..
If this helped, please rate this answer.

Have a brand new 3
ALL U DO IS PUMP THE HANDLE UP AND DOWN UNTIL YOU FEEL ALLOT OF RESISTANCE, THAT PRESURIZES THE CANTAINER, IF THAT IS NOT HAPPENING THEN THE PUMP IS DEFECTIVE.
