    I put a new ink roller in under the dampener rollers. Removed the water tray, put it back in, leveled from left to right. Water runs all over. Raised the tray on the left side and water leaks out on the left side. If I remove the water height plug everything is OK.

    Is there some special postion when putting the water tray back in?

    This is on the lower rollers.

    auch there is a certain position for tray it has to be slightly tilted tword the drain plug but not so much that
    the water pan roller scrapes the pan. also if the pan is tilted to much backward it will leak got to find the right spot
