General Body Cleaning The Impulse body and outer surface items can be cleaned with a water/alcohol mix applied to a rag or cloth.
Poor air efficiency - Verify that air system has no leaks. - Increase input pressure from air source and reset dwell to zero. From the lowest dwell setting increase the dwell until the desired velocity is achieved. (See page 5 for resetting Impulse Operating Pressures) Paint Breakage (paint breaking in barrel) For accurate troubleshooting related to paint breakage, please use premium quality paintballs while troubleshooting the Impulse.
