Could be ab airlock.

At the botton of the trolley there is a hoselock connector. This is where you connect your own hose. Remove the hozelock connector from the pipe and let the water gush out, hopefully that will clear the airlock.

Hope that helps.

you don't have to remove the connector, just stick your finger in and depress the pin then switch on and hold untill the water flows, I do this every time as it primes the pump and removes the air. ;) ;)
