• Manually load up to 6 paintballs into your paintball gun for

every revolution of the thumbwheel. This can be done to chrono-

graph your marker without the need to turn on the hopper, or to

feed paintballs if your batteries should happen to die during a

game.

• Clear a ball jam in your loader during a game by rotating the

Rip Drive backwards and clearing the jam, then forwards again

to load the ball stack.

4. General Maintenance

Emptying the Loader for Storage

With the Rip-Clip turned off, turn it upside down to dump the paint-

balls out. While upside down, rotate the Rip Drive backwards from

the feeding direction to release paintballs. Do not store your Rip-

Clip loader with any paintballs left inside.

Cleaning The Loader

To clean the loader, use only a clean, dry cloth, or apply a small

amount of goggle lens cleaner to a clean, dry cloth and wipe clean.

Do not apply goggle lens cleaner directly to loader surfaces, as too

much contact will deteriorate plastic and cause damage.

If any paintballs break inside the hopper; do not use any liquids or

chemicals to rinse out the hopper; doing so will cause severe dam-

age to the loader electronics.

Preloading the Drive Carrier Spring

If you remove the drive carrier for cleaning it will be necessary to

preload the drive carrier spring. Follow the instructions below.

• Install the spring cup, drive spring, and drive carrier onto

the drive shaft. Make sure the spring sits in the spring cup

correctly.

• Rotate the drive carrier clockwise until its tab hits the spring

housing tab. You should now have both spring tabs pressed

together.

• Lift the drive cone slightly and rotate it clockwise up and over

the spring cup’s tab, taking the upper spring tab with it.

• Snap the drive carrier down with the drive spring tab on the

right side of the drive cup's tab.

• The drive cone spring is now pre-loaded and will snap back

properly when wound up.
