Hatsan First time Hatsan Blitz fill

[Mr West Coast]

Purchased a .30 cal Hatsan Blitz and heard of the problems people have had with the gun leaking air while filling. Well, I went to fill my gun for the first time and sure e ought had that problem. If anyone knows how to resolve this issue or are familiar with this problem, can you please help? $900 gun and ready to use it. Thanks everybody!

First fill need a scubabottle or some tank, so you can get bigger pressure immediatly. That bigger pressure blows o-rings in their place.

I cant remember where did I read that, but I think it affect new gun too.
Atleast I had that situation when I repaired my friends blitz.

I had same problem when I tried using my small compressor. I had to switch to my large AV compressor which has a filter setup the doesn't start releasing the air until it is at around 2000-2300psi. Then it releases it in a burst. After that no more issues with any compressor or bottle filling it. I think you have to shut off the check valve if there is no back pressure. A quick dump from a bottle will do the same thing.

Slug in the barrel usually helps with the unpressurized valve seat leak. I have to do it every time I fill up my AEA from 0 PSI.

I had the same problem when I first got mine. I just flipped it to full auto, no mag or ammo, and let er' rip while tethered to the running compressor. After a minute, or so everything locked up like it should, and it started taking air. YMMV...
