New CO2 laser has leak..

[pugstech]

So purchased new CO2 laser on ebay, started it up and noticed a bad leak coming from inside back of machine. Above is a link to youtube video of the leak and where its coming from. i was told to put some silicone where the leak was coming from and after doing that it started leaking from other spot on that sensor/switch.. dont know what to do now and the customer service is horrible..any input would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks

Just seal it. Whats the problem? Check water tubes and seal.

It should'nt be leaking like that, I put silicone all over, especially where it was leaking from lets see if that works. Did you ever have this issue?

Silicone is not a solution. Find WHAT is leaking and seal or exchange if necessary.

Ditto what he said. You purchased a Cheap Chinese machine off eBay. Suck it up and replace the hoses. No silicone sealer will not work!

You're gonna want to make sure everything is dry before sealing with silicone. Let it fully cure. You can also get better tubing from Mcmaster or try some better silicone.
