yes had the same problem try putting the nozzle in all the way then bring it out 2 - 4 cm and you should be right - even rotate the nozzle a little. -

it got me the first few times - the nozzle kept clicking off.

Happens with me too at certain bowsers (not often enough to annoy me). I'll just very gradually squeeze the trigger back to full - sometimes that works as well.

I've come across it a few times, imo it is caused by the breather being bocked or obscured...
