To turn the eyes off, ensure that there are no paintballs in the markers
breech or feed elbow and make sure the marker is switched off. While
pulling and holding the trigger, turn the marker on. When the selector is
switched to a firing mode, a quick double blinking green LED will indicate
that the eye system has been deactivated. To turn the eyes back on,
simply press the power button one time quickly.
Notes:
• When the eyes are on, a slow consistent single-flashing green LED
indicates that no ball is in the breech and a rapid flashing green LED
indicates that there is a ball in the breech.
• For optimal performance of the TM-15 eyes, keep the inside of the
TM-15 breech clean and clear of broken paint, paint residue, or other
debris.
• Although the eyes can be cleaned via cleaning the breech of the TM-15
marker, if the eyes need to be accessed, please follow the steps outlined
in the Disassembly/Assembly section of this manual.
8. Unloading the TM-15
Warning: Always keep your TM-15 pointed in a safe direction and always
keep your protective eye, face, and ear wear on until marker is complete-
ly unloaded and safe.
• Be sure your finger is away from the trigger area.
• Place the barrel plug, sock, or barrel-blocking device into the end of the
barrel.
• Move the selector switch to the (S) safety position.
• Turn the TM-15 off by pressing and holding the power button. The LED
will change from red to green, once it changes to green, release the
button. Observe the light to make sure it is no longer lit.
• Remove your pressurized gas source by slowly and carefully
unscrewing it.
• If you are using an electronic loader make sure loader is completely
turned off.
• Slightly tilt the marker so that the loader is lower than the body.
• Remove the loader by releasing the clamp and spinning it in a
clockwise direction and gently pulling it.
• Read the pressure gauge and make sure the pressure reads 0 psi.
• Do not look down the barrel but look down the feed neck to make sure
there are no paintballs in the breech.
• Remove the barrel from the marker.
• Make sure there are no more paintballs remaining in the barrel.
9. Regulator and Velocity Adjustment
The TM-15 utilizes a Bottom-line regulator that doubles as an ASA
Adapter/Receiver for a standard threaded pre-set output compressed air
systems or remote hose. This unique regulator system channels air
through the air transfer tube, eliminating the need for external macro line
and fittings. The TM-15 bottom-line regulator controls the amount of air
pressure going from your compressed air system into the marker.
The TM-15 regulator should be factory pre-set at about 200 psi, as this is
the best operating pressure for proper marker operation. However, if over
time you do need to adjust the pressure, use the Regulator Adjuster Screw
on the front of your TM-15 bottom-line regulator.
Regulator Adjustment
Note: Do not use this to adjust the velocity of the marker.
If adjustments are needed, use a 3/16"
Allen wrench and insert it into the regu-
lator adjustment screw. This is located in
the front of the regulator (Fig. 1.6).
To Increase Output Pressure- Turn the reg-
ulator’s adjustment screw clockwise.
To Decrease Output Pressure- Turn the
regulator’s adjustment screw counter-clockwise.
