Just push the piston all the way in, and the rubber clicks when it comes out the other end of the cylinder. This way you can store it in a compact package.
Mine does not do this.
Interesting. I’m using the AP Go, so maybe the normal one doesn’t extend all the way through.
Edit: just checked how my normal AP works. It’s basically the same as the AP Go, but I guess this is a fairly new model, so there may have been some changes.
Are you using an older version?
Yes, it is eight years old.
It seems that the older models had a problem that was fixed. So, the tip needs to be tweakws a bit.
If you have an older model, store the pieces separately in order to prevent the rubber from being under constant compression. If you have a newer model, push the piston all the way in until the end of the piston pops out the other end. Oh, and that is only possible if the cap isn’t screwed on. That piece needs to be stored separately anyway.
Yes, the existing comments already allude to these problems/solutions.
