56 GEO3.5 MANUAL
SOLENOID ASSEMBLY
IMPORTANT!
The GEO3.5 solenoid assembly contains two sub-assemblies, the solenoid valve
and the solenoid manifold. Removal of the solenoid valve is required to access
the solenoid manifold for servicing. The solenoid valve itself (see gure 25A) is
a non-serviceable item. Any attempt to strip or service the solenoid valve will
immediately void the GEO3.5 warranty. If you experience any issue with the
GEO3.5 solenoid valve then please contact your Eclipse Service Centre. See
page 66 for Eclipse Service Centre details.
With the frame separated from the GEO3.5 body and the solenoid and BBSS
wires unplugged from the circuit board (see page 51) use a 5/64” hex key to
undo and remove the two screws that hold the solenoid assembly onto the
GEO3.5 body (see gure 25B).
Firstly remove the solenoid valve from the body, this will expose the solenoid
manifold which sits partially inside the GEO3.5 body (see gure 25C).
Carefully pull the solenoid manifold out from the GEO3.5 body, exposing the gas
transfer holes which lead to the bolt assembly (see gure 25D). The solenoid
gasket may still be attached to the body, if this is the case, carefully peel the
gasket off the body and place to one side.
With the solenoid assembly completely removed from the GEO3.5 body, the
bottom of the GEO3.5 body should now resemble gure 25E. Ensure that the air
transfer holes in the bottom of the body are free from contamination from any dirt,
debris, paint or moisture and clear away any excess grease if it appears to be
blocking any of the transfer holes.
WARNING!
Always de-gas your marker, discharging any stored gas in a safe direction,
and remove the barrel, loader, air system and any paintballs to make the
marker easier and safer to work on.
