The function of the LPR is to lower the air pressure supplied to the marker by the in-line, before it reaches the solenoid. This pressure is used to move the bolt forward and back. The factory setting is 75 PSI.

The Hyper2™ In-Line is set by the factory to approximately 185psi. This pressure should give you a velocity of approximately 285fps. ADJUSTMENTS The output pressure of the Hyper2™ In-Line is adjusted by turning the brass seat housing. The seat housing screw is located up inside the bottom of the reg.
ANTI CHOP EYES/BALL DETENTS MAINTENANCE + CHANGING ANTI CHOP EYES Figure 3 The Anti Chop Eye (ACE) system will prevent the EVIL® MINION™ from chopping paint by not allowing the marker to fire until a ball is fully seated in front of the bolt. The eyes use a beam across the breech. On one side there is a transmitter, and on the opposite side a receiver. In order for the marker to fire with the eyes turned on, the signal between the two eyes must be broken.

Remove the hose from the connector by pushing the gray plastic towards the connector and pull out hose.
• Turn on the EVIL® MINION™, the light should be red after the boot up sequence.
