Filling loop - Thanks in advance

[bobono1]

I am having problems getting the water into my boiler, i have located the filling loop, but can't seem to get water into my boiler to increase the pressure.

The loop is similar to this though the black thing you turn in this photo is a screw, when turned no water enters the system.

Far from being a Celtic fan!!! Though play Rugby!!

Anyway sorry mod for putting my email ad up - i am a newbie.

I have uploaded the photos. I know the silver thing is the filling loop, but just cant get my the water to enter my Ideal boiler C80FF and repressurize it. It is currently sitting at 0.1 bar after bleeding the radiators.

Looks like a quarter turn of the left spindle should do the trick

 

[bobono1]

Is that on the screw on the filling pipe?

 

[clf-gas]

Yes the one on the left.

Ignore the screw as that is just a retainer for the handle which has been removed, turn the shaft.

Top up pressure too between 1 and 1.5bar.
