IX. Setting up the CCM® Marker:
If you have not played with your CCM® marker and have just pulled it out of the
box – skip to #3 of this section. For those that have already been playing with
their marker - start at #1.
1) Back out your regulator adjustment screw (3/16th) until the marker starts
hissing down the barrel when you pull the trigger. Turn it up until this leak
stops. Your marker will most likely be shooting about 230 - 250 FPS.
2) Use a 3/16
th
Allen key to set the IVG in three full turns from the back of the
marker. In other words, set the IVG flush with the back of the body and then
turn it in two full rotations of the IVG.
3) Shoot your maker (wearing proper safety equipment) over a Chronograph
perhaps three times and not the average of the string.
4) Turn up your marker by using the regulator until either you achieve 300 FPS in
this manner (if this is case skip to Step 7) or the FPS will plateau and after a
few more turns starts to decrease again. This is because you have now given
the valve too much pressure and it is closing faster than it should.
5) Remember the point where it plateaued and set the regulator at this point.
With newer CCM® regulators the 3/16
th
screw is about two full turns in from
flush with the bottom of the regulator. Older CCM regulators set to 300 PSI at
about flush with the bottom of the regulator. This is because of a spring
change in the CCM regulator.
6) Use the IVG to set the FPS the rest of the way if your regulator adjustments
did not allow you to reach 300 fps.
This is the most efficient setting for your marker.
