INTRODUCTION & OPERATION
OPERATION
GAS CONFIGURATIONS
PRESET AND ADJUSTABLE TANKS
A Compressed Air System also known as a Nitrogen Air System is the recommended propellant air source for operating the Intimidator.
If you are using an Adjustable Tank, the output should be set between 400 & 500 PSI. Preset Tanks should be low pressure or 400
PSI output, however, a high pressure system is acceptable.
Co2
Co2 IS NOT the recommended propellant for the Intimidator. You should only use a Compressed Air System to operate your
Intimidator. When attaching air system hose fittings to your Marker, DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE. Use a thread sealant such as
Loctite 545 instead.
GETTING STARTED
Maintenance for the Intimidator is very simple.
The Bolt should be lubricated sparingly with TRI-FLOW. Lubricating once a day or when dirty will increase the life of the Ball Detents
and also eliminate bolt drag.
The Ram or “Hammer” should be greased every 5000 shots with DOW 55. First degas your Marker. Next, remove Bolt and Ram Sleeve
End Cap and Ram will slide out of the back. Clean inside of Ram Sleeve with a Q-tip, grease O-rings with DOW 55 and reassemble.
The Low Pressure Regulator Piston and the High-Pressure Regulator Piston O-rings should be greased every 10,000 shots. The
final o-ring to lubricate is the Poppet O-ring, located in front of the Ram Sleeve Valve. It is accessed by removing the front
Regulator/ASA Block. This should be done every 20,000 shots. Performing this simple maintenance will increase the life of the O-
rings and keep the Marker performing at the highest level possible.
NOTE
:
Always ensure Air Source is disconnected and Marker is fully degassed BEFORE performing any/all maintenance,
or when Marker is not operational.

REGULATORS
Included with the Intimidator are 2 High-Flow Regulators. Both regulators use a standard 3/16 inch hex key for
adjustment. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.
LOW PRESSURE REGULATOR
The low pressure regulator is mounted towards the front of the Marker under the barrel. It controls the cycling pressure
of the Marker which is read with the 0-300 PSI Ashcroft gauge located on the left side of the block. The pressure should
be set between 55 - 65 PSI. NEVER EXCEED 100 PSI AS OVER-PRESSURIZING CAN DAMAGE SOLENOID. The low
pressure regulator is not used for velocity adjustments but for cycling pressures only.
HIGH PRESSURE REGULATOR
The high pressure regulator (also called the Torpedo or inline regulator) is the vertical regulator that screws into the bottom
of the ASA block. All velocity adjustments are done with the Torpedo regulator. Typically, pressures vary from 200 PSI to
280 PSI depending on chronograph speed. If an aftermarket volumizer is used, the pressure may be lowered accordingly.
Please note: The Torpedo high pressure regulator comes with 2 connection ports, 1 dedicated for the air input and the other
dedicated for a gauge to monitor pressure levels. To verify that you are connecting an air fitting to the appropriate input
port of your Torpedo regulator, the pin valve assembly will be visible within that port prior to installation. The gauge port
comes with a plug screw pre-installed from the factory.
AMMUNITION ASPECTS
HOPPER
The Intimidator requires a high feed rate of paintballs to make full use of its features. To satisfy this need, the use of
a motorized loader is recommended.
PAINT
Using top grade paint ensures the utmost in performance and accuracy.
