AIR LEAKS
A
IR LEAKING FROM THE AIRPORT
• Check the o-ring on the Air system. If needed change the o-ring and try
again. The o-ring normally used is #15 but some manufacturers might use a
different size. Consult the manual of the air system you are using.
• Check that the hose connector is tight. Remove the hose from the connector by
pushing the gray plastic towards the connector and pull out hose. Insert a
3/16” allen key into the connector and tighten. If needed remove and apply
thread sealant to the thread and re-tighten. If unsure consult expert advice.
• Check that the end of the hose is cut straight and is not worn out. If needed cut
a small piece off the hose with a razor blade and re-insert hose into the fitting.
Make sure hose goes all the way to the end.
AIR LEAKING FROM THE HYPER2 REGULATOR
• First locate the position of the leak.
• For dis-assembly instructions consult the technical section under Hyper2 regulator.
• If the leak is coming from the bottom of the regulator you will need to dis-
assemble the regulator and change the #010 O-ring and the seat on the brass
seat retainer mounted inside the Hyper2 regulator.
• If the leak is coming from the swivel piece where the hose connector mounts you
will need to change the two #013 o-rings under the swivel piece or tighten the
hose connector.
• If the leak comes from the small hole in the middle of the regulator there are two
possible o-rings causing the problem. Change the #020 o-ring on the piston and
the #007 urethane o-ring inside the body of the regulator.
• If the leak is from the top of the regulator, change the #015 o-ring on the outside
of the cap.
AIR LEAKING FROM THE ASA
• First make sure that the ASA is tightened well into the body of the M7 by
removing the Hyper2 regulator and tightening the ASA screw with a
3/16” Allen key.
• Next change the #015 o-ring on the top cap of the Hyper2 and apply a small
amount of lube to the o-ring.
• Finally, if above steps don’t help, remove the ASA with a 3/16” allen key and
change the #012 o-ring mounted on the top of the ASA. Apply a small amount of
lube and tighten back together.
AIR LEAKING BETWEEN BODY AND FRAME
• Leak between the body and the frame can be caused by a couple of things
• First pull out the Bolt kit and change the #015 sail o-ring and the 2 #020 o-rings
on the outside of the c
ylinder
.
• Re-assemble and test. If problems persist, contact authorized service center
for board replacement.
EYES WILL NOT WORK, LED KEEPS BLINKING GREEN
• First change the battery. The eyes are normally the first thing to stop working
when a battery is dying.
• Next try to clean the eyes. You can either use canned air and blow out the eye
holes through the feed neck hole or remove the eye plates with a 1/16” Allen
key, pull out the eyes from the mounting holes carefully and clean them with
q-tips. To test if the eyes work, make sure there is nothing inside the breech and
that the bolt is in the back position. Turn on the M7, the light should be red
after the boot up sequence. If it is, the eyes are working.
• Check that the eye wire is connected to the board so that metal clips are
facing down.
• If nothing above helps contact a store or DYE Precision for eye replacement.
SOLENOID WILL NOT ACTIVATE / TRIGGER NOT WORKING
• Check that the trigger adjustment is not set so that the microswitch cannot
activate. You should hear a small click when pulling the trigger.
• If the M7 fires once when turned on but not after that, your trigger is set so
that the microswitch is always activated. Re-adjust the trigger.
• If the trigger is correctly adjusted but the M7 still won’t fire check that the
microswitch cable is well inserted into the board and to the correct connector
(the microswitch connector is marked with the text “SWI” on the board).
• Change the battery if not positive about it’s charge.
• Check that the solenoid cable is attached to the board and to the right
connector (solenoid should be attached to the connector that is marked with
the text “SOL”).
TRIGGER BOUNCE / M7 SHOOTING MORE THAN ONE BALL PER PULL
IN SEMI AUTOMATIC MODE
• Raise the trigger sensitivity level in the configuration mode.
• Check that the trigger is not adjusted too short.
• Make sure there is a trigger spring inside the frame .
ERRATIC VELOCITY / M7 WON’T FIRE
M7 FIRES BUT BALLS ARE DROPPING OFF OR NOT EVEN COMING
OUT OF THE BARREL
• Make sure the battery is good.
• Raise the dwell to factory level (25).
• Make sure bolt is well lubed and moves well. If there is too much friction in
the bolt it will cause the M7 t
o shoot down.
•
Make sure air system is screwed in all the way.
F
IRST SHOT IS TOO HIGH
• Change the seat inside the Hyper2 Regulator. For dis-assembly instructions
consult the technical section.
• Check that the #013 o-ring on the inside of the tophat
is in place and in good condition.
• Try turning off the ABS feature by turning DIP #1 to the off position.
VELOCITY IS NOT CONSISTENT
• Make sure the paintballs you are using fit the barrel good and are consistent
in size. The stock barrel with the M7 is .690 size. You should be able to blow
the paintball through the barrel but they should not roll through the barrel on
their own.
• Remove the bolt kit and re-lube it. Change any o-rings causing a lot of friction.
Make sure #014 o-ring in bolt tip is in place and in good condition.
• Raise the dwell.
• Change the battery.
• Check that the Hyper2 regulator is working good and that the pressure is
consistent. A separate regulator testing tool is available for this. If needed,
dis-assemble and change worn out o-rings in the Hyper2 regulator.
OTHER CATEGORIES
DOUBLE FEEDING
• If you get two balls firing at once change the ball detents by removing the eye
plates, taking out the old ball detents and inserting new ones.
BREAKING PAINT
• Make sure you use high quality paintballs and that they are stored according
to the manufacturers instructions.
• Check that #14 o-ring on bolt tip is in place and in good condition.
• Make sure your loader is working good and that the rate of fire is not set
higher than the maximum feed rate of the loader.
• Check that the barrel you are using is not too tight for the paintballs you
are using.
14
15
• If above doesn’t help, remove the frame from the M7 and remove the solenoid
by unscrewing the two screws mounting it down. Apply some lube to the seat
underneath the solenoid and re-assemble making sure that the solenoid is well
tightened into the body and that the eye wire is not pinched
underneath the solenoid.
• Last possibility is that one of the gas passages is leaking. Gas up the M7
without the frame attached and try to locate the exact point of leakage. If leak
is coming from one of the blocked holes remove the screw, apply some thread
sealant and re-attach screw to the body.
AIR LEAKING FROM BACK OF THE M7
• Check that the bolt kit is tightened all the way into the M7. If the bolt kit is
loose, it will start to leak.
• If above does not solve the leak, remove the bolt kit and change the #020
o-ring on the back part of the bolt. Also change the two #009 o-rings located
in the stem of the bolt. Lube well and re-insert the bolt kit into the M7. Check
bolt kit break down picture on page 9 for o-ring locations.
• Last, check that the gas passage blocking screw located on the center of the
M7 is not leaking. If the leak is coming from this hole, remove screw and apply
thread sealant to it. Make sure to tighten screw well and wait for sealant to dry
before re-gassing marker.
AIR LEAKING FROM FRONT OF THE M7
• Remove the Bolt kit from the marker and change the #017 o-ring located inside
of the cylinder and the #013 o-ring located inside the tophat. Lube well
and re-assemble.
• If above doesn’t help try changing the #020 o-rings located outside
of the cylinder. Lube well before re-inserting bolt kit.
PROBLEMS WITH ELECTRONICS
M7 WON’T TURN ON
• Make sure battery is new and well charged.
• Check that battery is connected to the 9V clip inside the M7 and that
the other end of the 9V harness is connected to the board.
• Make sure there is no dirt or debris blocking the button from being pressed.
M7 WILL TURN ON / OFF BY ITSELF OR THE EYES WILL TURN
ON / OFF BY THEMSELVES
• Both of these problems are caused because the button(s) are pressed all
the time.
• Remove board from the frame by removing the grip panel on the left hand side,
disc
onnecting the cables and pulling the board out. Carefully remove the two
butt
ons and clean them well.
