Those pumps can work on both Shrader and Presta but you have to reconfigure it.

I think you have the plastic peice in wrong.
I had thought so also, I was in the store ready to buy a new leyzne and saw that the PB pump I was about to replace did schrader and presta, and I wondered how it did that, so read the back of the package. Then I went back home and took it apart to make sure I had it in the right way. It was, but the plastic piece was in so deep that it wasn't connecting with the top of the schrader on certain valves.
