MP40 keeps falling off on wet side (NTM only)

[Xandernfs]

My MP40 keeps falling on the wet side on my reefer 250. It has only occurred during NTM. I've been trying different modes and really like that mode. Any suggestions on how to get it to stay?

Side note: MP40 is 2 months old and has been cleaned.

Thanks,

Is it shimmed properly for your glass thickness?

Yes, glass is 5/8" thick so I'm using the large shim.

You mean the thin shim? You should be using the gasket which is very thin.

I think you may have it backwards LOL. Glass above 1/2" requires just the gasket.

5/8 still uses the pin spacer at the shallowest setting.

Ill snap a pic when I get home

OP said it was 2 months old - thus I 'assumed' it was the QD model which dispensed with the older style dryside.

Ohh, it changed (I have wES).

Old style if not the QD; cord should be where the arrow is.

Newer dryside is much easier to shim - though in all other respects it is the same.

Always better when it's a cheap, easy fix.
