Problem with the tubes-very frustrating!!

[cleo]

For some reason one of the tubes on my pump keeps slipping off the dome. I make sure it's well pushed on right up to the dome before I pump then after about 20 mins of pumping it suddenly slips off and I lose suction. Don't know why this is suddenly happening, maybe because I was using the tubes on the large domes for about a week and they have stretched the ends of the tube a bit? I tried putting some blu tac around the end of the dome and pushing the tube end tightly onto it to keep it in place but that didn't work. It is so frustrating!!

Anyone else experienced this?

Hi Cleo, im sorry you are having this problem. Its probably because the tubing has been stretched so just cut the ends of the tubing back about 1cm and then re-attach. If you keep having a problem, or the tubing is too short, just email me off forum and i can send you some more tubing.

Thank you Lucy, I'll give that a try later.

Went and cut the tubing straight away and been happily noogling now for over half an hour without any problems. So thanks again Lucy! ;D
