Mist king first use issue

[ajs]

Setup my new mist king for a trial run today and I cant get it to work.

I kept the tubing longer for this trial run. Does it need to be shorter to feed the pump properly?

Try too suck water through it. Sometimes they need too prime

It is just dripping out of the nozzle. Is this still a priming issue?

Sort of. When my tank runs dry, I have too take the mister head off so it is just the tube. Then run it for a bit. You should see the flow increse. Then you can put the mister head back on.

Could be. To test just put the bucket way higher than the pump so the water is flowing down to it. Otherwise, cut some of the tubing and see if it helps. Make sure you have the tubing pushed in past the seals and you have the flow going the correct direction. It looks like you have the pump on it’s side too. Set it flat and see if that helps.

That fixed it! Works great now.

Thanks guys!
