I have an Automag set up with a cradle and a Pure Energy 4500/68ci nitro tank. When I try to un-screw the tank it is very difficult. I have to put the gun between my legs and crank the tank with both hands. I was just wondering if any one else has this problem and if you know how to solve it. Thanks.

I have to do the same thing. It's not impossible to do one handed but it just takes longer and you lose a bit more air doing it one handed(cause it takes so long to unscrew). If you don't want to have to unscrew it like that, then look into getting an on/off cradle. Other than the cradle, in-between your legs is probably your best bet. By the way: Welcome to AO! :D

Edited because I can't write sentences. ;) :D

yeh, an on-off will help, as will putting 1-2 drops of oil on the threads before the on-off. unscrew the tank 1 turn and then drain the line of pressure and then unscrew the rest of the way...and youre set
