TROUBLHOOTING
Air Leak From The Hose Line
1.
If air is leaking from the opposite ends of the hose fittings will need to retighten to snug.
2. The female end of the hose must have a Plastic Washer installed inside the Hose collar and be tightened prop-
erly. IMPORTANT: The Hose line supplied has metric female ends. This will not install into American 1/8” (NPT)
threaded fittings. If installed incorrectly, it is possible to damage the attachment fittings and hose line.
Dealing With An Air Leak
Down The Barrel or Out of The Trigger Frame
1. Eko™ Cup Seal is bad and needs to be replaced. (SEE Eko™ Cup Seal REMOVAL GUIDE)
2. The Valve Body lip is nicked or scratched and needs to be replaced. NOTE: Never remove the Valve Body un-
less specific repairs are needed.
3. Air leaking through the Receiver and out of the Trigger Frame. The back o-ring on the Valve Body is damaged
and needs to be replaced.
Dealing with a Paintball Breakage
1.
If the weather temperature is below 59°F (15°C) or above 86°F (30°C) paintballs can become brittle and
not hold up to the Markers velocity and outside temperature. Paintballs have a shelf life and can become too
fragile for use. Paintballs can take a different shape in time so would be wise to size the paintball with your
barrel. Dirt or broken paint shell fragments in the barrel can cause the Marker to have re-cocking issues. Using
a squeegee thru the upper portion of the Receiver will remove most of the dirt or broken shell fragments.
2. If the loader has double fed a paintball in the barrel/breach and the Marker was fired. This can break paint out
of the barrel.
3. If you over shoot the paintball loader and in middle travel have wedged a paintball in the breach this could
cause a paintball breakage.
4. Velocity adjustment is too high and needs to be lowered to proper velocity (fps) speed.
Re-cocking Related Issues
1.
Need lubrication on the Striker O-ring. (SEE DISASSEMBLE/REASSEMBLE AND CLEANING OF REAR
INTERNALS).
2. Striker O-ring is damaged or missing. Replace with a new Spyder approved Striker O-ring. NOTE: The Striker
O-ring cannot be substituted with another type of o-ring.
3. The pressure in the tank is too low and possibly needs to be refilled.
4. Dirt or broken paint shell fragments in the Receiver can cause the Marker to have re-cocking issues. Using a
squeegee thru the upper portion of the Receiver will remove most of the dirt or broken shell fragments. Should
this issue continue, remove the Markers internals for complete cleaning. (SEE DISASSEMBLE/REASSEMBLE
AND CLEANING OR REAR INTERNALS).
Electronic Trigger Frame Troubleshooting
If your Marker is not shooting it may be due to one of the following problems:
1. Battery may need to be recharged.
2. The Battery Wire Harness is not properly attached to the circuit board.
3. The Coil Set Harness is not properly attached to the circuit board.
4. The Touch Switch Harness is not properly attached to the circuit board. NOTE: If the Markers Electronics have
any dirt or paint, Spyder recommends using an aerosol can of air. Apply the can of air directly at the compo -
nents that need cleaning.
