UNLOADING/DEGASSING

Before storage, transport or maintenance, your marker will need to be unloaded and degassed. In an
area where it is safe to shoot and while wearing paintball goggles, loosen the SP-1’s clamping feedbeck
and remove the loader. By turning the marker upside down, you can empty any extra paintballs from the
feedneck into your hand. Remove the CO2 or HPA tank.
Turn on the marker and dry re in a safe direction until all of the gas pressure inside has been released. Turn
the SP-1 off by pressing and holding the power button for one second.
Although the power button serves as the SP-1’s safety switch to prevent accidental ring, it should never be
relied upon in place of a barrel blocker and proper paintball eye protection.
If the marker is not degassed, its regulator may hold enough pressure to re 3 or more shots, even if the gas
supply is removed.
IMPORTANT
SP-1 WILL NOT TURN ON
— Battery may be low or dead. Replace with a name brand 9-volt alkaline battery by removing the
rubber wraparound grip. Unplug the battery by carefully pulling away the battery clip – do not pull on
the battery clip wires.
SP-1 IS LEAKING OR SHOWS INCONSISTENT VELOCITY
— Disassemble and clean the bolt assembly. Inspect all o-rings and replace any that show signs of
wear or damage. Re-lubricate with SL33K and reassemble.
— Use a fresh 9-volt name-brand alkaline battery.
— If using CO
2, an anti-siphon tank, or regular tank and remote hose will improve consistency.
SP-1 IS LEAKING OR SHOWS INCONSISTENT ACCURACY
— This can be caused by poor quality, out of round paint. Use high-quality paintballs and store them in
a sealed container in a cool, dry place.
— Gas may occasionally vent near the bottom of the Max-Flo R vertical regulator. This is a normal
function as the regulator protects your marker and does not indicate a problem.
— Use a fresh 9-volt name-brand alkaline battery.
— If using CO2, an anti-siphon tank, or regular tank and remote hose will improve consistency.
SP-1 WILL TURN ON BUT WILL NOT FIRE
— Battery may be low. Replace with a name brand alkaline battery.
— CO2 or compressed air tank may be very low or empty – rell.
