FOREWORD For the uninitiated, the SLS represents our very best-of-thebest. We take the basic platform of the Ego10 and rework virtually every aspect and component to create a lighter, leaner, more focused machine. Although the SLS is designed with ultimate performance in mind that does not mean we have done so at the sacrifice of reliability. As you would expect from any Eclipse marker, the SLS is the perfect blend of lightweight design, rugged reliability, stunning looks and on-field ability.

SL Shaft3 Barrel Kit The Eclipse SLS marker comes as standard with an Eclipse SL Shaft 3 Barrel Kit.1 The barrel screws into the body of the SLS using a right hand thread meaning that if you hold the SLS pointing away from you the barrel screws into the body in a counter-clockwise direction.2 FEATURE SUPPLEMENT The barrel comprises of two parts, a Barrel Back A and a Barrel Front B .
SLS VALVE GUIDES Warning: REMOVE ALL PAINTBALLS & De-gas your marker, discharging any stored gas in a safe direction, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY & remove the barrel, loader & air system to make the marker easier & SAFER to work on. Included with the Eclipse SLS marker are two Valve Guides. To remove the LP Valve Guide and install the HP version see the ‘Removing the Valve Assembly’ section of your ‘Ego10 Operators’ Manual. Simply swap over the Valve Guides during this procedure.
THE SLS TRIGGER SYSTEMS Warning: REMOVE ALL PAINTBALLS & De-gas your marker, discharging any stored gas in a safe direction, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY & remove the barrel, loader & air system to make the marker easier & SAFER to work on. C A B D F G FEATURE SUPPLEMENT The Eclipse SLS marker comes with two complete Trigger Systems (bearing carrier, trigger, spring and setscrews) that are interchangeable within the SLS frame.
SLS BOLT SYSTEM Warning: REMOVE ALL PAINTBALLS & De-gas your marker, discharging any stored gas in a safe direction, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY & remove the barrel, loader & air system to make the marker easier & SAFER to work on. The interchangeable Cure3+ Bolt Inserts provide additional options so that the SLS can be set-up to your preference. Instructions on how to change Cure3+ Bolt Inserts can be found on page 8 of this Feature Supplement.
Installing Cure3+ bolt inserts Pull the Bolt Pin upwards so that it disengages the Rammer and slide the Bolt out from the rear of the marker as described in the ‘Cleaning and Lubricating the Bolt’ section of the ‘Ego10 Operators Manual’. Warning: REMOVE ALL PAINTBALLS & De-gas your marker, discharging any stored gas in a safe direction, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY & remove the barrel, loader & air system to make the marker easier & SAFER to work on. FIG 1.1 FIG 1.2 FIG 1.3 FIG 1.4 FIG 1.5 FIG 1.
(CONTiNuED) FIG 1.7 FIG 1.8 Place the Spring inside the access hole at the rear of the Cure3+ Bolt and drop a Plunger onto of it so that the Spring sits inside the body of the Plunger (See Figure 1.7). FIG 1.9 Whilst retaining pressure upon the top of the bolt pin, slide out the hex key. The Bolt Pin should slide completely through the Bolt as the hex key is removed (See Figure 1.9).1 When installing the pin, you should hear it “click” into place.
sl3 inline regulator The Eclipse SLS marker comes with the new SL3 Inline Regulator. This design provides a substantial performance increase over previous Planet Eclipse Inline Regulators.1,2 FEATURE SUPPLEMENT Adjusting the velocity of the SLS can be done by inserting 1/8” hex key into the Adjuster Screw at the bottom of the SL3 Inline Regulator. Turning the Adjuster Screw clockwise will decrease the output pressure of the regulator and consequently the velocity.
Cleaning the SL3 Inline Regulator Disconnect the macroline hosing from your Inline Regulator allowing it to be unscrewed from the Front Regulator Mount (FRM) (See Figure 2.1). Inspect the o-ring at the top of the threads on the FRM for damage. Replace and re-lubricate as necessary.1 Warning: REMOVE ALL PAINTBALLS & De-gas your marker, discharging any stored gas in a safe direction, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY & remove the barrel, loader & air system to make the marker easier & SAFER to work on. FIG 2.
(CONTiNuED) FIG 2.6 FIG 2.7 FIG 2.8 FIG 2.9 FIG 2.10 FIG 2.11 Thoroughly clean the 011 NBR70 orings1 that sit on the outside of the Adjuster Assembly, then re-lubricate with Eclipse Grease (See Figure 2.7). FEATURE SUPPLEMENT Using a dry cotton bud, clean the internal 008 NBR70 o-ring that sits inside the top section of the Adjuster Top. Then using a small hex key gently apply Eclipse Grease to the o-ring (See Figure 2.8).
(CONTiNuED) FIG 2.12 FIG 2.13 With the top section of the Inline Regulator upside down, screw the top and bottom sections together (See Figure 2.13). Re-attach the Inline Regulator to the SLS FRM (See Figure 2.14), then re-connect the macroline hose to the fitting on the regulator swivel. FIG 2.14 Warning: If you are at all unsure of performing this maintenance procedure please contact your nearest service centre.
Advanced SL3 inline Regulator maintenance FIG 3.1 FIG 3.2 FIG 3.3 FIG 3.4 FIG 3.5 FIG 3.6 FEATURE SUPPLEMENT This procedure is only required if your are fixing a supercharging SL3 Inline Regulator (common symptoms of supercharging are a very high velocity first shot and/or large variances in shot to shot consistency in excess of 30fps). 14 Place 3/32” hex key through the Adjuster Top (See Figure 3.
THE Eclipse E-Portal Warning: REMOVE ALL PAINTBALLS & De-gas your marker, discharging any stored gas in a safe direction. remove the barrel, loader & air system to make the marker easier & SAFER to work on. Update the markers firmware - from time to time new firmware may be released by Planet Eclipse. You can now download and install the latest firmware using the Eclipse E-Portal.
SLS CUSTOMER SERVICE & Support An integral part of the Eclipse SLS experience is the Customer Service and Support that you can expect to receive having successfully registered your marker for Warranty purposes.
