Removal, Installation and Cleaning of Ball Detents
• Using a 5/64” Allen key, insert Allen key into detent cover and turn
counter-clockwise.
• Clean the detents with a damp cloth and apply a small amount of
supplied grease to the outer sides of the detents if sticking is an issue.
• Installation is the reverse of the removal. Do not over tighten the Ball
Detent covers!
Note: Be careful not to lose any of the detent parts as they are small.
Removal of Bolt Guide Assembly
Caution: Make sure the TM-7 is com-
pletely empty of air before removing
the Bolt Guide Assembly.
• Using a 1/8” Allen key, insert it into
the rear retention screw, turn the
Allen key counter-clockwise and completely remove the screw.
• This will allow you to pull out the Bolt and Bolt Guide Assembly. If
assembly does not easily slide out, insert a barrel swab into the front
of the body and push out the Bolt and Bolt Guide Assembly.
Maintenance of Bolt and Bolt Guide
• Inspect the o-rings on both the Bolt and Bolt guide for any wear or
damage. Replace damaged or worn o-rings if necessary.
• Lubricate all o-rings on Bolt and Bolt Guide with supplied grease. Only
a small amount of grease is needed.
Maintenance of Poppet
Note: Notice how far the Bolt Guide Cap is into the Bolt Guide. When
reinstalling the Bolt Guide Cap make sure it is at about the same location.
• Use a 7/64” Allen key and insert it into the side of the Bolt Guide Cap.
Turn counter clockwise until Bolt Guide Cap is completely removed.
• Remove the Poppet Spring, being careful not to lose it.
• Use 1/8” Allen key and carefully insert it into the front of the Bolt
Guide. Push the Poppet out the back of the Bolt Guide. Be careful not
to damage the Poppet front sealing face.
• Inspect and lubricate Poppet O-ring and be careful not to lubricate the
front Poppet Seal.
Replacing the Poppet Seal
If there is a slight air leak evident coming through the bolt area, the
poppet seal may be worn and need to be replaced. With the poppet
removed, grab the poppet seal with pliers and unscrew the poppet by
hand from the poppet seal. Do not grab the poppet with pliers or put in
a vice as it may damage the brass. Install the new poppet seal by hand.
Once tightened by hand, the poppet will hold the poppet seal in place
and it should not come apart during operation.
Re-Installation of Poppet and Bolt
Guide Cap
• Place Poppet into the back of the Bolt
Guide and gently push forward. If
installed properly the Poppet will be
all the way forward resting on the
bolt guide internal face.
• Install the Poppet spring back into the back of the Poppet.
• Using the 7/64” Allen key, screw the Bolt guide cap clockwise back into
the Bolt Guide. Screw the Bolt Guide Cap all the way in to help seat
the poppet and then turn it out one turn. Further adjustment over a
chronograph will be needed to achieve desired velocity.
