REGULAR MAINTENANCE FOR THE PIRANHA™
1. Clean all broken paint out regularly. Do this before you oil the gun.
2. Oil marker each time you play with synthetic gun oil. Not 3-in-1. PMI’s new oil works the best.
3. The fastest way to oil your Piranha is to drop three or four drops in the ASA and screw the bottle in over it.
Take the barrel off and shoot the gun several dozen times to cycle oil through the gun.
4. Inspect the bolt and hammer o-rings after each time you oil the gun. Make sure they are getting oil.
5. Clean out the powerfeed or vertical feed. Any oil or paint in there will make the gun inaccurate.
6. Never wash the bolt assembly off with water unless you are going to oil them before you reassemble them. Dry
before oiling.
7. Check ball retainer every 25,000 shots. Replace if it is worn or broken.
8. Never stretch hammer spring to increase velocity. This will shorten the life span of the spring.
REASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
1. See Figures 15 through 23, which shows the procedure for reassembly of the bolt/hammer assembly.
The flush cocking bolt reassembly procedure can be found on the following page.
Once it is reassembled, hold the bolt/hammer assembly in one hand. Figure 24. Push it gently into the marker
until it stops sliding forward, which will be about halfway into the body of the marker. Figure 25.
2. Before it stops sliding forward, push the Sear Release Slide button forward. Figure 26. The Sear Release Slide
button is located on the left side of the marker near the top of the left grip panel. Continue to press
assembly into marker. Pushing the button allows the bolt/hammer assembly to
slide easily the rest of the way into the marker.
3. Field strip pin must be inserted into the left side of the marker. Figure 14
4. After reassembly, follow the procedures in this manual for adding power
system, loader, and paintballs.
