Why can't I get it out of the tube?

The contents of the tube should squeezed out easily to be mixed with the contents of the can. I had no issues with my tube. Make sure you squeeze the tube starting from the bottom end then working your fingers towards the top. The contents from the tube should flow like toothpaste.

the tube should be the hardener, so it may need a little kneading to make it more easier to work with. If it is too hard, I suggest putting it outside in a warm area. Maybe the warm area for awhile will make it more easier to knead. I also believe that the directions did say to knead the tube first before mixing it with the filler.

Try kneading it each time before use, I found that this worked to soften it up to allow it to come out of the tube easier.

It will harden with age, just sitting on your shelf. Or it might have come to you from old stock. Once the tube is opened, it will dry out and harden quickly. Probably need to get a new container.

The tube is directly fixed either by weld or bolts and cannot easily be removed . The overall structure is centerd with the tube

Just twist the circular part on the side and it'll eventually release. It should just slide right out.

This same answer was provided by Clint in his advice, but it was the same problem I had when first using my machine: Make sure that the tube that goes into the fluid reservoir (a/k/a tank) is reaching the liquid in the reservoir. This can get pulled back up through the cap (or may just never have been positioned correctly) so that it doesn't reach far enough into the reservoir to pull the fluid out.

If working it back and forth don't work you might have to take it apart and pull the connectors apart, that hold the end of the tubes in there. If you have a pair of pliers you might be able to turn it at the end where the metal connectors are, make sure the electric is off and you wrap something around the tube, that rubber shelf liner will help grip the tube better then a cloth.

Hi, the tube should open. It may be defective. Please submit a request to Amazon to replace it.

The top half turns so you have to lift on it a little and turn counter clockwise. It will separate in the middle and the needle will slide right out of the cork. Hope this helps.

I don't know either. I tried to keep it open by placing a straight pin in the opening but now I can't get that out either. It is a problem.

I can't get mine out either. I will try what you said and see if I can get it out. Thanks!

The tube attached to the reservoir detaches. Simply pull the bellows reservoir off, fill it with fluid and re insert. Thank you for shopping with us. ~Vert Delivery

Sorry I wish I col help. I find that the tube comes out sometime after I sleep. These new Nasitube Plus supposedly have been improved o do just that......but no luck. After reading your comment, I wonder if its just our subconscious that's at work.

Try to put it into warm water for a while and then try to unscrew it. Good luck.

The key to using Slime tubes is to always turn the wheelso that the valve is on top, at the 12 O'Clock position. That way the slime slithers to the bottom, keeping the valve clear.If you try it at the bottom position, at 6 O'Clock, or in the vicinity,the Slime will go into your gauge, and if you are pumping it will come out.All we need to do is keep the valve up top, and all will be well : )

Slightly bend the tubing and you should be able to pull it out of the slot. Tubing is green in the picture.

There's a big tube that has to be connected to a window and it's not that long so make sure you have a window that opens and is in a place where you can put it. I didn't know that until mine came but it worked out.

It's possible the tube is clogged, especially if you are using powdered formula. Otherwise, you may consider contacting Medela directly for phone support.

There are four eye screws at the bottom to remove the interior assembly. Then there are two push in plugs to remove the tube from the interior base. It would appear that you only need to push the two plugs to remove the tube but for me the plugs failed. I had to remove two more screws from the bottom assembly to get to the plugs and put them back in place.
