GENERAL MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: Before attempting to perform any maintenance operations, make sure that
all paintballs and air sources have been removed from the marker and that the regula-
tor pressure reads LOW psi. Install a barrel-blocking device, and ensure the Vanquish
power is OFF.
Keep your Empire Vanquish clean and lubricated to eliminate the friction that would prevent
reliable operation. It is recommended that you clean and lube the marker before each use.
Do not use oil or petroleum-based lubricants in the lubrication of this marker. Teflon or silicon
(non-spray only) lubricants designed for use on O-Rings may be used for lubrication for the
Firing Engine. Dow 33, the included factory lubricant or a lube specifically engineered for
paintball markers is highly recommended.
Disassembly Tips
• Make sure you have a clean area to work on your marker, so you don’t lose or misplace
parts.
• After reassembling the Empire Vanquish recheck your trigger activation settings.
• Visit PaintballSolutions.com for additional information.
External Cleaning
Use a clean cloth, dampened with water to clean the outside of the Empire Vanquish. Do not
use any chemicals or cleaners, as you may damage the protective finish.
Warning: Do not rinse the Empire Vanquish under water, as you may damage the
marker’s electronics.
Barrel
It is recommended that all sections of that the barrel be removed before any maintenance or
disassembly is performed. Simply turn the full barrel counter-clockwise to remove. Use warm
water and a barrel cleaning device to keep the barrel in top condition. Dry thoroughly.
Firing Engine Assembly
Removal of Firing Engine
Before you remove the Firing Engine, make sure you remove the air cylinder from the marker
and that the pressure reads LOW psi.
• Push and hold in the Back Cap Release Button at the rear of the marker while the marker is
facing in a safe direction
• While holding the button in, pull the Back Cap backwards until the Firing Engine is free of
the Body.
