Increase Velocity: Unscrew or loosen the velocity adjustment screw by turning it counterclockwise. Rotate the velocity adjustment screw counter-clockwise in small increments (1/4 turn or less), stopping between slight turns to test velocity, until desired velocity is achieved. Do not back the adjuster out past being flush. Stop if you hear an air leak, and adjust back in a 1/4 turn. Decrease Velocity: Tighten or screw-in the velocity adjustment screw by turning it Clockwise.

7. Troubleshooting Marker does not fire/cycle Marker may not be turned on Check screen on rear of foregrip. OLED screen should be on when marker is turned on. Paintballs may not be fed into breech The anti-chop eye system prevents the marker from firing unless a ball is present. When the eyes detect a ball the eye symbol on the screen will have a filled circle in the middle. Never put anything other than a paintball down the feedneck of the Mini GS.

Possible issue with marker pressure Pressure should be set to around 200psi. If pressure drops during rapid fire and doesn’t recover to set pressure between each shot try screwing in tank all the way or try a different tank. If switching tank doesn’t help the regulator/ASA may need to be serviced. See Regulator maintenance guide in the manual Velocity of first shot is higher than rest of string Possible issue with marker pressure Pressure should be set to around 200psi.
