First of all, make sure you put the right pistons in the right valves. The pistons (the part that moves up and down, and comes out) and the valves are labeled. The one closest to the mouthpiece is usually labeled as "1", the middle one as "2" and the last one as "3".
Make sure the pistons are well oiled. Then put the piston in the valve. Twist the top of the piston (the button you push on) clockwise until it "clicks" into place. This will ensure that it's properly aligned. Then screw on the cap. If the valves "clicks" when you push it, then you didn't tighten the cap properly.
Once you install all the pistons, try to play your Trumpet to make sure they are aligned properly. If you find that you can't blow through the trumpet, check a couple of things.
* Make sure you put the right pistons in the right valves * Make sure they're properly aligned by twisting the piston (twist the button clockwise).

∙ 14y agoThe pistons (the actual part that moves up and down inside the valve) are labeled with numbers, as are the valves. Match up the numbers on the pistons and valves. Typically, the valve closest to the mouthpiece is labeled as 1, the middle valve is 2, and the last valve is 3.

∙ 13y agoOil the valves first, then gently slide the valve into the slot. Make sure that you are putting the right valve into the right space, otherwise the trumpet won't work. The valve should have a number on it denoting which space it goes in. After the valve is in, gently twist it clockwise until it locks in. After it locks in, tighten the ring that sits on top of the space for the valve.

What happens to a trumpet when you oil it to much?
I play the Horn, which uses completely different valves. However, I did play learn trumpet and I played it for a while a few years ago, so I think I can help you with this. I don't think putting too much oil in your trumpet is going to completely destroy it. I don't recommend knowingly overdoing it, but just put in what you need to fix the problem. If you put in too much, it'll just drip out the bottom of the pistons anyway. As far as I'm aware, any other issues with valves aren't affected by the overuse of oil. Hope this helps! =)
How do you apply oil to trumpet?
To apply valve oil to a trumpet, first unscrew the cap to the oil. Then uncrew the valve that is sticking. Twisting to the right will loosen it. Take the valve out of the slot, and wipe it dry. It may have pre-existing oils and spit on it. Next, apply a THIN layer of oil to the sides of the valve, and inside the holes. If there is any yellow/brown residue on the valve, scrape it off. Next, put a small amount of oil inside the valve hole itself (where you put the valve). Next, insert the valve back in the slot by lining it up.
