I just re-checked and I do indeed have one LOL - I must have been thinking about the Rose 3 not coming with one :)
How do I access the deck with a full tank? I'm just not seeing how I can I tried various ways and esmoke guru says its possible on the website. I've only been rebuilding for 2months so maybe its just not obvious to me but I'm at a loss here, any help with this?

Just turn the juice flow fully closed, then unscrew the bottom of the deck. It might be very tight if you didn't lube the O-rings well before hand. If you received yours from the first batch then the o-rings are very hard so it is more difficult.

I lube them and mine are from the second batch.
Wont the liquid just fall out from the bottom once I unscrew the bottom of the deck? and should I close the AFC also?

You dont need to close the AFC, just make sure you dont remove the top cap or it will drain out. Keep the tank upside down when you first do it, just incase you get a leak. You can then test is carefully to see if it will leak when upright.

so basically close juice flow and unscrew bottom cap while holding the atty upside down as if I am unscrewing a bottom fill atty?

Yes, thats how I do all my attys. You should be able to turn it right way up after you have unscrewed the base as your juice will be turned off.

Its been a bit quiet in here, hope you all are enjoying your atties and not having any major problems.

FWIW - It sounds like there has been major issues with some aspects of the Cane V2. Their FB page went into meltdown yesterday or the day before.

I am glad I didn't succumb to shinyitis this time.

HNY too :)

I seems that a large number need to be returned to have the top chimney section pressed. Seems to spin loosely etc, and O-ring dropping out. Some bloke swore that it was made in China and rough - that I believe has been put to rest at least.

I think a lot of people are miffed (and rightly so) that they may need to ship to Switzerland for repairs to be made, and this is a cost that no one want to pay for on a $200 atty.

Anyway, the owners are now involved and seem to be doing what needs to be done to address the issues.

Mark Todd very tactfully suggested on the FB group that the owners need to address this issue immediately as it was getting out of control. It obviously did the trick as they finally got involved.

Its a shame really, as I love my cane V1.3 LE - but I think they may have missed the boat on this one - especially when the Hussar and Skyline entered the market late in the year.

Shame :( Didnt they have a problem with the V1's and flaky, rattling AFC rings?!?! I think mine had the problem but I sold it fairly sharpish..

I didn't have time to follow their FB post but only found many people got problem.

I don't know whether mine has problem but I got some issues but don't know whether they are the problem that other users are experiencing:

1. There is always little bit leakage from the AFC ring
2. The juice control ring seems cannot 100% shutoff when trying to refill, always will leak from the air hole while refilling
3. Try to clean up the whole atty and found one of the O ring size is not correct (I do think this lead to the leakage from the AFC ring), but can't find a more appropriate one to replace that
