Random Sticking Trigger?
Permalink  
 

I use the YRL 51 triggers. They are typically great triggers.  I have one I started the season new with,.and it's now sticking randomly,..like twice per job.  Doesn't stick on,..just doesn't release,...and then it does. I pulled the trigger on a dry run and it doesn't snap back like it should.  Never had that issue,...guess I'm gonna use it till it breaks and then tear it down.  These triggers are rebuildable and maybe a spring somewhere is going bad or has some loose in there floating around?   

The trigger isn't leaking at all,..it's only been in use a couple months.  and I also have a spare on board so I'm covered there

*They are rebuildable,..but previous experience has proven to me that these particular triggers are harder to get apart and service than others.

Open it up. Not very hard to do and you may see what's wrong. Or get pissed off and smash it into the concrete and trash it

Take it apart and put plumbers grease on the O rings. That has helped us in the past.

Thanks Brett,...I will try that,...although it seems to have remedied itself for the time being??

Funny how that happens at times. Any time I take anything apart that has an O ring I apply plumbers grease. It helps getting things put back together and I swear... it ads to the life of the O ring!
