TRIGGER ADJUSTMENT
ADJUSTING YOUR TRIGGER
The trigger’s forward travel, over travel and spring
tension are fully adjustable so that the user can fine-tune
the trigger to his or her exact liking. You do not need to
remove the frame from the gun in order to adjust the
trigger pull.
• There are two adjustment screws located on the right
side of the Ultralite frame and one adjustment screw
behind the trigger. The two screws on the side of the
frame adjust the travel of the trigger.
The one located behind the trigger is used to change the
tension of the trigger spring.
TO ADJUST TRIGGER TRAVEL
• The screw toward the front of the trigger controls the forward travel. Screwing it in will shorten
the trigger’s length of pull.
• Use a
5
⁄64” Allen wrench to make the desired adjustments.
NOTE: If this screw is adjusted too far, the switch will be held down at all times and the marker
will not fire.
• The screw toward the rear of the trigger controls the over travel. By turning this screw you can
adjust how far the trigger will travel after it reaches the firing point.
NOTE: If this screw is adjusted too far, the trigger will not be allowed to travel far enough to
depress the switch and fire the marker.
TO ADJUST SPRING TENSION
• Use a
5
⁄64” Allen wrench to make the desired adjustment. The adjustment is made by pushing
the Allen key through a hole in the trigger.
• To make the trigger pull stiffer, turn the Allen key clockwise or in.
• To make the trigger pull lighter, turn the Allen key counterclockwise or out.
INTEGRATED LOCKING DOVETAIL FEATURE
The UltraLite frame comes equipped with an integrated locking dovetail. There is a locking screw
located on the bottom right side of the UltraLite frame. It can be accessed with a
1
⁄8" Allen key
through a hole in the grip panel. To unlock a part attached to the dovetail of the frame, turn the
locking screw counterclockwise one full turn and slide part off the rail. To attach a part to the rail,
slide the part on and turn the locking screw clockwise until part is firmly locked in place.
REMOVING ULTRALITE FRAME FROM THE M8
If there is ever need to remove the Ultralite frame from the M8 make sure to follow these steps.
• Remove three grip panel screws with a 3/32" Allen wrench from the right side of UltraLite frame.
• Disconnect the solenoid wire and the eye wire from their sockets by gently pulling them out.
• Using a
3
⁄32" Allen key, turn the front frame screw counterclockwise one full turn.
• Finally, turn out the back frame screw and slide the frame back and down until it comes off the M8.
To connect the frame follow above steps in reverse order.
NOTE: Be sure that the frame and trigger assembly are kept clean. If there is excess dirt or
paint build up around the trigger, the trigger will no longer move freely. In addition, paint and
dirt can cause the microswitch to not function properly or fail. Be sure you do not pinch the
wires between the frame and the body when reattaching the frame and body.

• Be sure the trigger is not adjusted to the point where it is too sensitive and
may cause accidental discharge of the marker.
• Removing the trigger spring will cause premature wear on the microswitch,
resulting in failure.
• Be sure you do not pinch the wires between the frame and body when
reattaching the frame to the body.
