My liquid level gauge doesn move and is in the full/empty position regardless of the amount of product in the tank. Whats the problem?
A. The spring loaded level gauge is “hung” up on the guide ring inside the cylinder. Mildly shaking the tank may permit the gauge to show the proper liquid level in the tank. If that does not work, following safe practices, remove the gauge as described in the operating instructions and reinstall. Of course, this should only be performed after the tank has been emptied of all product and 0 pressure remains in the tank. It is also possible the spring has deteriorated to the point it is not functioning properly. Remove gauge and replace. This problem does not occur on new Taylor-Wharton cylinders.
