I have recently installed an automatic bell drinker in one of my runs as a prelude for putting them in all my runs.

But I simply can't get the thing to work properly.

It either leaks alot or runs bone dry - I have be adjusting for 2 weeks now and can't get it ring.

What do people think I am doing wrong?
 
There is air getting into the bell from somewhere it shouldn't or the unit isn't completely level? One of our units has a base plug which needs a rubber 'O' ring to seal it properly, but sometimes they don't sit correctly. In that case the other sealing agent I use on these rings is silicone grease which you can buy from a plumbing merchant.

What make of drinker is it -perhaps a glance at their sales literature will give a bit more insight?
