Quicke Q41 loader multi coupler

Hi there.

Has anyone had any dealings with this type of multi coupler. It started leaking the other day so i was looking to put some new seals in the top half.
I can't find who makes it, or if i can put new seals in it at all.
The quicke Q41 is fitted to a Class Axos

Be interested to know if anyone has worked with one of these before?
Thanks

Now Then..
It looks the same as MX use. I fitted seals to once which didn't cure the leak, so fitted new couplers, which still didn't work.
The fault turned out to be the cam/clamp Assy. It was worn/strained..

I’ve seen the faster ones but this one doesn’t seam to be one of those.
I went to the local quicke dealer (hahaha I’m a child) and they said is was one thy used but couldn’t tell me the model number. So I can get an information on how to change the seals in there. Guess just have to strip it apart and see what’s what.

That is not a quicke loader it’s an mx been painted and decals to look like a quicke loader I have fitted o rings in them but it’s important to get the correct size I’ll upload a photo of the size I use

Tree hanks for that. I’ve got to go down to the Quicke place today then and Cancel those seals. Surely they would have known it wasn’t one of there loaders ?

Give the storeman benefit of the doubt and blame ignorance?

Or suspect once delivered they are non refundable and blame greed?

Changed the seals on a Stoll branded coupler made by Faster a few years ago. Take your time to get the correct new seals. Keep the valves covered in oil when fitting the new ones to reduce the chance of damage. Keep the thing scrupulously clean of dirt.

Turned out in addition to seals gone, my coupler had a slight twist, probably from forcing it closed when under pressure instead of releasing pressure first. There was a very slight gap at one end which didn't close the valves together. Ended up fitting a wee bush over the locking pin on that side so the handle cam pulled everything tight.

So it turned out the wrong seals had been ordered. I’ll have to pay the carriage charge for it. Hopefully ordered the right ones this time.
