Cant fill Hatsan PCP

[Kavliaris]

Hello everyone, I just got the Hatsan Invader .25... When I try to fill it with hand pump... The air doesnt go into the airtube...
The rifle came filled at 130bar (I shot 2-3 shots to check if there are any problems, everything is fine)
The fill probe has orings, they seem to be in good condition I pluged it all the way in but whenever I pump it all the air slides from the airtube hole around the fill probe...
(The fill probe came with the rifle so it should be the right one)
The hand pump works fine...
Should I grease the probe orings? Cock the rifle or something? Any tips?
Thank you

100% silicone only on probe o rings

try pumping quickly to get the probe to seal.

Definitely try cocking the rifle, and keep it cocked (and on safe) while pumping. That often did the trick for me.

Dont listen to any of that. Get 800 grit sand paper or 600 grit. Roll a very thin log of sandpaper an sand the fill port(not probe)...burrs will keep ruining you orings on the probe. Now change orings on fill probe an use silicone grease. Gently put probe itno port after sanding. Never remove probe again. Hatsan is notorious for bad fill ports. Had the same problem on my bullboss.

Like literally on their website even. Says check fill port for burrs. Does it not. Lololololol.

If the hatsan work was that carless id just rma/ refund .. so its like there QC cant or don't in a oring sealing area? .

Thing is you do that and thats not it and you try a rma there going to claim user abuse on it enduser damaged / Void. In the end you do as you feels best .. not saying it may come down to sanding.

Doesn't void warranty. I bought A refurb from field supply. Hatsan renewed warranty upon purchase. Had fill issue an emailed em. They said sand the port lightly with 800 grit and replace orings then retry. Said if my problem still persists theyed have me send the airtank in for inspection/fix or replacement. Sanding fixed it easy enough tho

I agree its stupid to have to sand it tho. Shoulda been good to go from factory but i really wanted the boss. Love the look of it and the one krale that looks similar

That would also be the company that does not sell alot of parts.
Been down the SAD ARSE Hatsan road!

No clue on that. Mine came with a butt ton of spare parts from field supply. Assuming cause i bought a refurb. Only prob iv had with my boss was the port. Had it for like 3-4 years and put thousands of shots on it. Its been solid after the sand.

That's if they ever answer your email requests to start off

Theres a few threads on fill probe things to check most times its the simple silly cone or the cocking thing , heck i seen hearsays on the oring is too large / wrong sized . Most part too big on that.

Heck if they dont have the correct one just put next best in and ship it ... Not like there dumping off polishing up there work , right

I was having the same problem it was my fill probe wouldn’t seal and even kept shaving the o rigs. So I purchased a different fill probe off Amazon and it solved all my problems…!
