                        The rosin press doesn't hold pressure well after getting it, we recommend to check it out step by step:

                        Step1 - Check release valve, ensure the release valve closed tightly.
                        Step2 - The pressure is still not well maintained after step1, please remove the red plastic cap located at the bottom of jack (next to the release valve), and rotate no more than 30 degrees clockwise to increase the pressure of the jack.

                        Tips: This is normal if you are able to continue applying pressure (You have to press down handle very harder), it means that the rated pressure of the jack has been exceeded (overload condition), and sounds air escaping.
