Welcome to the world of the Invert MINI.The MINI is a modern culmination in thepursuit of speed, technology, weightreduction, and overall performance. Itstarted with radical imaginative concepts, which in turn inspired years ofresearch and development, plus countless hours of testing and engineering. As a result the MINI features innovative electronic and pneumatic technology that challenge theparadigm that formerly defined “how ahigh performance paintball markershould function”. The patented valvedesign, Slip Stream(TM) Solenoid, andHall effect Sensor Trigger, set new standards for marker technology. TheMINI is precision engineered from aircraft grade aluminum to meet thedemands of the most competitive players, teams, and climates. The ultimate intent of the MINI is to exceedyour expectations.

Invert Paintball expects you to play hardand play frequently and thus the MINIwas built with this in mind. All internalparts, wear, and contact surfaces havebeen heat treated or hard anodized. Thetoughest and most resilient materialsand components have been used in theconstruction of this marker.• The MINI uses a single standard

9-volt battery for operation. The circuitry is a microprocessor baseddigital controller.

• The MINI operates on low-pressure.The main operating pressure is 180-200 PSI. The pressure can be nominally adjusted and monitoredvisually via the gauge on the bottom-line regulator. There is nosecondary regulator to worry about.

• The MINI comes standard with anaccurate lightweight 12” aluminumbarrel that may be removed andreplaced to specifically suit players’aesthetic and performance desires.

***Read the entire manual beforeyou prepare your MINI for play. ***

A. OPERATIONSafety and safe marker handling are themost important aspects of paintballsports. Please practice each of the following steps with an unloaded marker before attempting to charge yourmarker with compressed air and paintballs. Do not load compressed air and paintballs into your MINI until you feelcompletely confident with your ability tohandle your MINI safely.

Keep your finger out of the trigger guardand away from the trigger; point the muz-zle of the marker in a safe direction at alltimes. Keep the marker turned off untilready to operate. The MINI uses an on-off switch for one of its safety devices. Always keep your MINI pointed in a safedirection. Always use a barrel plug orbarrel-blocking device. Always useASTM approved paintball specific eyeprotection in any areas where paintballmarkers may be discharged. Rememberthat the ultimate safety device is you, theoperator.

B. SWITCHING ON YOUR MINITo switch the MINI on, locate the PowerButton on the back side of the front fore-grip, in front of the trigger guardand directly under the LED. Push andhold the button for 1 second and the LEDlight will turn GREEN and then to RED.Release button and the LED will intermit-tently flash green indicating that themarker is now ON and LIVE. C. SWITCHING OFF YOUR MINIPush and hold the Power Button on thefront fore-grip for 1 second and the LEDwill turn solid RED and then to GREEN.Release button and the MINI will switchoff. The Invert MINI also has an “AutomaticOFF” feature. If you accidentally leaveyour MINI powered up, it will shut itselfoff after approximately 1 hour of inactivity.

www.invertpaintball.com2. OPERATION

The MINI requires a single 9-volt batteryas the electronic power source. The useof long life batteries is recommended. The 9-volt battery is located in the frontfore-grip in front of the trigger guard.The battery is accessed through theremovable left side plate on the frontfore-grip. Confirm that the marker is OFF. Removethe screw at the bottom that secures theleft side plate in the front fore–grip. Ifthere is already a battery in the fore-grip,gently disconnect the battery from thebattery harness, and then connect afresh 9-Volt battery to the harness.Carefully re-insert battery and harnessback into the battery compartment withthe harness pointed down towards thebottom of the grip. Make sure that thereare no abrupt kinks and the wires arecomfortably placed, do not force theminto place. Replace the grip panel andscrew.

The MINI also has a Battery Life indicator. If in standard operation andthe LED flashes with a GREEN color thenthe battery is GOOD, if the LED isORANGE the battery is fairly depletedand you should change battery soon, orif the LED is RED then there is less than20% of the full battery strength remaining and battery should bereplaced immediately.NOTE: Some rechargeable batteries are too large for the MINIbattery compartment. If they don’tfit, please don’t force them as thismay damage the gun.


3. REPLACING THE 9-VOLT

4

The MINI uses a unique break beam eyesystem to determine the absence orpresence of a ball for the purposes ofreduced paint breakage and optimumrates of fire. The MINI board is pre-programmed to activate the eye systemeach time the marker is powered up. To turn the eyes off, ensure that there areno paintballs in the MINI breach or feed-neck, make sure the marker isswitched off, and then while pulling andholding the trigger, turn the marker on.A quick double blinking green LED willindicate that the eye system has beendeactivated. To turn the eyes back on, simply turn themarker completely off and power it upagain without holding the trigger. A slow consistent single flashing greenLED indicates that the eyes are ON withno ball in the breach and a rapid flashing green LED indicates that thereis a ball in the breech.

For optimal performance of the MINIeyes, keep the inside of the MINI breachclean and clear of broken paint, paintresidue, or other debris.Although the eyes can be cleaned viacleaning the breach of the MINI marker,if the eyes need to be accessed pleasefollow the steps outlined in the MainBody Assembly section of this manual.

www.invertpaintball.com4. THE MINI EYES OPERATION

5

The MINI is designed to work withCompressed Air/Nitrogen.

IT DOES NOT WORK WITH CO2.Consult the place where you purchasedyour MINI, or a recognized and competent airsmith, for instruction inthe safe handling of compressed-aircylinders before purchasing or connecting one to your MINI.The MINI utilizes a fully functional regulator at the bottom of the grip framethat doubles as an ASA adaptor orreceiver for a standard threaded pre-setoutput compressed air system. It isstrongly recommended that a very highflow consistent air system is utilized asan air source for your MINI. There areseveral manufacturers of high qualityfixed output compressed air systems. It is recommended that you use a “lowpressure” (350-450 psi) fixed outputregulator system, although it is acceptable to use a “high pressure”fixed output (750-850 psi) system.

If you are using an adjustable outputregulator system the output pressureshould be between 350-450 psi.Before pressurizing your MINI, check tomake sure that you and anyone withinrange are wearing eye protectiondesigned specifically for paintball.Double check that the body is screwedinto the frame and the screws are tight-ened. Ensure you have a barrel plugsock or barrel-blocking device in placeand there are no paintballs in the mark-er. The on-off switch should be OFF. Aircan now be applied, the marker willbecome pressurized.REMEMBER: compressed air or nitrogensystems can be extremely dangerous ifmisused or improperly handled. Use onlycylinders meeting D.O.T. or regionallydefined specifications. Do not performany work to your tank or tank regulator.NEVER disassemble your tank or tank regulator. Only a qualified and trainedtechnician should perform work on yourtank and tank regulator.


V. COMPRESSED AIR / NITROGEN SUPPLY

6

The MINI comes equipped to accept1.03" (outer dimension) standard-gravity feed loaders as well as most agitating and force-feed loaders. Fit theloader directly into the vertical feed tube.Always twist it down in a CLOCKWISEdirection. The MINI uses .68 caliber, water-solublepaintballs, readily available at paintballpro-shops, commercial playing fields,and many sporting goods stores. Thepaintballs are fed from the loaderthrough the direct vertical feed port andinto the breech of the marker.

VII. FIRING THE MINIKeep your finger out of the trigger guardand away from the trigger; point themuzzle of your marker in a safe directionat all times during this process. Be sureyour goggles are securely in place andmake sure the MINI marker is off. Pushon/off button and hold for over 1 secuntil the Led light changes from Greento Red

Warning Always keep your MINI pointed in a safe direction! Everyonewithin firing range should always usepaintball approved eye and face protection in the presence of live paintball markers.• Place the empty loader onto the

marker. • Be sure that it is securely mounted

in place.• Apply the compressed gas,

pressurizing the marker.• Put the paintballs into the loader.• Remove the barrel plug, sock or

barrel-blocking device.• Aim the MINI in a safe direction.• Turn the MINI on: Push the on/off

button for 1 sec until the LED lightchanges from solid Green to solidRed, then release button and LEDshould do a slow Green flash.

• Aim the MINI at the target.• Place your finger on the trigger.• Pull the trigger with a smooth

squeezing motion.

VII. MINI REGULATOR AND VELOCITY ADJUSTMENT

7

***THE MINI BOTTOM-LINE REGULATOR IS NOT AN ADJUSTABLEPOSITION ASA. To adjust your shooting

position check out the options available fromInvert Paintball.***

The MINI utilizes a fully functional MINIBottom-line Regulator at the bottom ofthe grip frame that doubles as an ASAadaptor/receiver for a standard threadedpre-set output compressed air system.This unique regulator system channelsair through a chamber in the grip frameeliminating the need for external macroline and fittings. The MINI Bottom-lineRegulator controls the amount of airpressure going from your compressedair system into the maker itself.

DO NOT USE CO2!!! THE USE OF ALOW PRESSURE OUTPUT

COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEM ISSTRONGLY SUGGESTED!

Velocity adjustments should be madevia the velocity adjustment allen screw.

NOT THE BOTTOMLINE REGULATOR CAP.

THE MINI BOTTOM-LINE REGULATORIS PRE-SET AND LOCKED FROM THEFACTORY AND SHOULD NOT BE DISASSEMBLED. The MINI regulatorshould be pre-set at 200 PSI as this isthe best operating pressure for firing themarker. However, if over time you doneed to adjust the pressure only use theRegulator Adjuster Screw on the front ofyour MINI Bottom-line Regulator.Tightening the Adjustment screwincreases the pressure, which can bemonitored via the Bottom-line RegulatorGauge. The MINI will operate with lessthan 200 psi going into it, but YOUSHOULD NEVER RUN IT AT MORETHAN 200 PSI! Once you set the MINIBottom-line regulator at 200 PSI, thenyou can make your velocity adjustmentsat the bolt guide cap at the rear of themain body.


8

The following directions are not foradjusting the Bottom-line regulator.They are only to be followed in the eventthe bottom-line regulator has comeapart or the cap has been removed. Firstloosen the small set screw on the bottom of the regulator that locks theRegulator Cap in place. At the front sideof the bottom-line regulator there is aRegulator Cap and a Regulator Adjusterscrew inside of that cap. In the case thatthe Regulator Cap becomes loose, donot use tools, use your hand strengthonly. Back out the brass adjuster completely with the correct allen wrenchthen screw the cap in by hand until youfeel resistance (with gun gassed up)then back it out a 1/8 turn.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE REGULATOR CAP! OVER

PRESSURIZING CAN DO SERIOUSDAMAGE TO YOUR MINI!

Once this adjustment has been made,retighten the locking set screw thenscrew in the brass adjuster to set thepressure.

Do not attempt to adjust the physicalposition of the MINI Bottom-lineRegulator! Invert Paintball manufactures alternate designs of theMINI Bottom-line Regulator to achievealternate shooting positions.

Please see your local paintball Pro-Shop for or call Invert Paintball or

Paintball Solutions for more information.

At the back of the MINI main body is theBolt Guide Cap. The allen screw in thebolt guide cap serves as your velocityadjuster. Confirm that the pressure onyour MINI Bottom-line Regulator is at200 PSI. Then you can increase ordecrease the velocity on your MINI bytightening or loosening the velocityadjustment screw, with a 1/4 inch Allenwrench. • TO INCREASE YOUR VELOCITY – Unscrew or loosen the velocity adjustment screw by turning it counterclockwise. Rotate the velocity adjustment screw counter-clockwise insmall increments (1/4 turn or less),stopping between slight turns to testvelocity, until desired velocity isachieved. Do not back the adjuster outpassed being flush. Stop if you hear anair leak, and adjust back in a 1/4 turn. Apaintball specific radar chronographshould be used to accurately measureyour velocity.

• TO DECREASE YOUR VELOCITY – Tighten or screw-in the velocity adjustment screw by turning it clockwise. Rotate the velocity adjustment screw clockwise in smallincrements (1/4 turn or less), stoppingbetween slight turns to test velocity,until desired velocity is achieved. Apaintball specific radar chronographshould be used to accurately measureyour velocity. This marker was designed with safetyand safety standards in mind. If youattempt to shoot paintballs at a highervelocity than established safety standards, the marker may not functionproperly. NOTE 1! If you attempt to operate the marker at extremely high velocities, theinternals will not function properly!NOTE 2! This gun is not designed to shootabove the safety limits established byindustry standards but under certain conditions it may. It is therefore important


ADJUSTING THE VELOCITY

to check the velocity each time before playing with your MINI.NOTE 3! Higher pressures DO NOT equateto better performance and higher velocities.High pressures in this marker will causeproblems, showing up in erratic velocity,extreme gas consumption, leaks, and general poor performance.

The Invert MINI is driven by a OptimusI™ Board. The Optimus I™ Board features several modes and functionsthat are listed below. The Optimus I™Board is located inside the front fore-grip.

VIX. FUNCTIONS ,MODESBefore adjusting firing modes, rate of

fire or dwell, always remove propellant source from the MINI and

install barrel blocking device.The Optimus I™ Board inside your MINIfeatures 5 functions. It uses a 3 colorLED indicator on the backside of thefront fore-grip to indicate functions andmodes during live play and during programming.To access and set the Optimus I™Board, place MINI on a flat surface withmuzzle pointing to the left. Using a5/64” hex wrench, remove the screw thatsecures the left side plate in the frontfore–grip. This will expose the batteryand the Optimus I™ Board. Pleaselocate the (A) Function Key, which is asmall black button on the rear of theboard, to the left and slightly above thePower Button (B), marked DIP (seeillustration). It is not neccesary toremove the board from the housing inorder to manage settings.

The MINI must be OFF to begin managing functions. While the MINIis OFF press the Function Key to accessone of the 5 different functions and makeadjustments. For example, press theFunction Key 1 time and you will be in“Function 1” which is “Firing Modes” orpress the Function Key 3 times and youwill be in “Function 3” which is “Dwell”.

1. Firing Modes (Solid Red LED)2. Rate of Fire (Solid Green LED)3. Dwell (Solid Orange LED)4. BIP Delay (Flashing Red LED)5. Ramping Point (Quick-Flashing

Green LED)

Once you push the Function Key theappropriate amount of times to get intothe desired function, the LED will flash aspecific color per the descriptions belowfollowed by flashing which will indicatethe current setting in that function. Tochange settings in each function, youuse both the Power Button and FunctionKey, to shift up or down much like shifting through motorcycle gears. Toincrease the number in that setting, hitthe Function Key. To decrease the number in that setting hit the PowerButton. Function Key for up –Power Button for down.


VIX. FUNCTIONS ,MODES

12

1. Firing Modes – WILL BE INDICATED BY SOLID RED LED

To get into the Firing Mode Function,make sure the POWER IS OFF, then pushthe Function Key one time and LED willturn to Red and then flash to indicate theFiring Mode that it is currently in. Forexample the Default mode is Semi-Autowhich will be demonstrated by oneflash. There are 4 Firing Modes:a. Semi-Auto/NPPL (1 Flash)

– one shot per trigger pull. Max ROF 20BPS

b. Ramping/PSP (2 Flashes)– First 3 shots will be standard

semi-auto, on 4th shot, MINI will rampto a pre-set 15 BPS ROF.

c. Full-Auto/NXL (3 Flashes)– First 3 shots will be standard Semi-

auto, on 4th shot MINI will go intofull auto mode with a pre-set 15 BPSROF.

d. Ramping/Millen. (4 Flashes)– the MINI will operate in a semi-auto

mode until player achieves an 8 BPStrigger pull. At that point, and aslong as 8 trigger pulls per secondare maintained, the MINI will ramp toa pre-set 15 BPS ROF.

To cycle through these modes you useboth the Power Button and FunctionKey. Once you push the Function Keyone time to get into the Firing Modes theLED will flash red. While the LED is litRed push the Function Key to cycle up(from 1 for Semi to 4 for Full Auto) andto go the opposite direction (from 4 atFull Auto through to 1 for Semi) use thePower Button to cycle down. For example, if you are in the Default Semi-Automode and want to go to 3 Shot Burst, Push theFunction Key twice while the LED is lit Red.Upon release you should see the LED flash red3 times. To move from 3 Shot Burst to 2 ShotBurst, push the Function One time to get into firing modes, then while LED is lit Red, pushPower Button one time and release. LED shouldflash Red two times to indicate that you are nowin Firing Mode 2 – 2 shot burst.


13

2. Max Rate-of-Fire –WILL BE INDICATED BY SOLID GREEN LED

To get into the ROF Function, make surePOWER IS OFF, then push Function Keytwo times and LED will turn to Greenand then flash to indicate the Rate OfFire (1-20) that you are currently using.Default is 15 Balls Per Second. To adjustROF push the Function Key two timesand when the LED is lit Green use eitherthe Function Key (to toggle up orincrease your ROF) or the Power Button(to decrease the ROF). For example – Tostart you will be in a Default setting of 15BPS. Push the Function Key twice to getinto ROF Mode. While the LED is litGreen, press the Function Key 5 times totake you to 20 BPS. Upon releasing theFunction Key, the LED should then blink20 times indicating your new Rate OfFire.

The easy way to know your rate of fire:number of flashes divided by two thenadd ten. eg 15 flashes / 2 = 7.5 7.5 + 10 = 17.5 BPS


( Flash 1 time ) 10.5 BPS

( Flash 2 time ) 11 BPS










( Flash 12time ) 16 BPS

( Flash 13time ) 16.5 BPS





( Flash 18 ime ) 19 BPS

3. Dwell Setting –WILL BE INDICATED BY SOLID ORANGE LED

To get into the Dwell Function, makesure the POWER IS OFF, then push theFunction Key three times and the LEDwill turn to Orange and then flash toindicate the Dwell Setting that you arecurrently at. The MINI Dwell Setting isDefaulted at setting 38 (which is 38 x.25 milliseconds). Dwell is adjustablefrom 1 to 45. This Function is also controlled through the same techniquesused for Firing Modes and ROFFunctions, while the LED is lit ORANGE,to increase or decrease your Dwell byincrements of .25 milliseconds.4. BIP (Ball In Place) Delay –WILL BE INDICATED BY A QUICKFLASHING RED LED

To get into the BIP Function, make surethe POWER IS OFF, then push theFunction Key 4 times. The LED willquickly flash red to indicate that you arein the BIP Function. Then the LED willpulse / slowly flash to indicate the BIPSetting that you are currently using.

Default is (1) One Pulse (1 millisecond).BIP is adjustable from 1 to 40 milliseconds. This Function is also controlled through the same techniquesused for Firing Modes and ROFFunctions (while the LED is Red) toincrease or decrease your BIP in 1 milliseconds increments.5. Ramping Point –WILL BE INDICATED BY QUICKFLASHING GREEN LEDTo get into the Ramping Point functionmake sure the power is OFF, then pushthe Function button 5 times and the LEDwill turn to a quickly flashing green andthen pulse / slowly flash too indicate theramping point setting you are currentlyusing. The default ramping point forPSP firing mode is 3 (4PBS). Thedefault ramping point when firing modeis changed to millennium firing mode is7 (7.5 BPS). Ramping Point isadjustable from (4 to 9.5 PBS). Pleasesee chart for corresponding flashes andBPS settings.(See Chart on next page)

CAUTION: Before attempting to perform any maintenance operationsor any marker disassembly, make surethat all paintballs and propellantsources have been removed from themarker. Install a barrel blockingdevice, push on/off button and hold forover 1 sec until the Led light changesfrom Red to Green, and keep themarker powered OFF.

Simple MaintenanceKeep your MINI clean and lubricated toeliminate the friction that would preventreliable operation. Clean and lube themarker before each use, and do not putit away dirty. USE NO OILS! Do not useoils made for paintball markers, realfirearms or pneumatic tools, do not useoils at all. Do NOT use petroleum-basedlubricants in the lubrication of thismarker. Teflon or silicon (NON-sprayonly) lubricants may be used for lubrication for the bolt area only of themain housing. paintball recommendedgrease such as Dow 33 is recommended

for lubricating the regulator pistons andcylinder assembly. Be sure it is paintball recommended Grease and notaxel grease. Ball DetentsThe MINI ball detents are located oneither side of the main breech, directlybeneath the feedneck and secured underthe MINI ball detent covers.

Bolt Guide LubricationWhen you feel a performace drop off the onlyreal maintenance needed is the bolt and boltguide lubrication.

Remove the rear grip frame screw torelease the bolt and bolt guide assembly.Clean all dirt and old grease from thespring, bolt and bolt guide. On the boltguide there are six o-ring that need to belightly lubricated with Dow 33. Alsolubricate the two rear o-rings on the boltand lightly lubricate the o-ring at the bolttip.

www.invertpaintball.comXIV. MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: Before attempting to perform any maintenance operationsor any marker disassembly, make surethat all paintballs and propellantsources have been removed from themarker. Install a barrel blockingdevice, push on/off button and hold forover 1 sec until the Led light changesfrom Red to Green, and keep the MINIpower OFF.The front fore-grip of the MINI is thehousing for the Optimus I™ Board andthe battery. You only need to loosen twoscrews to remove the front fore-grip

from the main body, however this is notnecessary or recommended. There is aneasy access removable side plate whichgives you access to the Optimus I™Board, Function Key, Battery. To accessit simply remove the screw at the bottomof the fore grip and remove the plate.There is very little need to ever removethe Front Fore-Grip from the Frame.

PLEASE USE CAUTION! If you remove and re-install the FrontFore-Grip. The male portion of the boardconnector is located on the Optimus I™board and is guided into the female connection point located on the Sensorboard (which is housed in the mainbody). This can be very fragile, soplease be gentle. Likewise there is asmall groove in the bottom of the battery/board compartment to make surethe alignment of the board is accurate inre-assembly. Ensure that the Front Fore-Grip is secured on the triggerguard guide, when reinstalling onto the Frame. DO NOT over tighten retention screw!CAUTION: Before attempting to perform

any maintenance operations or anymarker disassembly, make sure that allpaintballs and propellant sources havebeen removed from the marker. Install abarrel blocking device, push the on/offbutton and hold for over 1 sec until theLED light changes from Red to Green,and keep the MINI power OFF InsertImage of Grip Frame and Regulator

The Grip Frame houses the trigger, andthe air channel (which feeds air from theMINI Bottom-line Regulator into themain body). Attached to the bottom ofthe grip frame is the MINI Bottom-lineRegulator. The MINI Bottom-lineRegulator is a functioning regulator andcannot be adjusted forward or backwards without MINI approved aftermarket parts.

To access the bottom-line regulator firstremove the grip panels using a hexwrench. Next loosen the outside setscrews located on the outside lower endof the grip frame. The outside setscrews only need to come out enough toloosen the bottom regulator so it can bepulled down from the MINI.

When reattaching the bottom-line regulator, put the piece back into thegrip frame and first tighten the outsideset screws so that they are flush to thegrip frame. If the bottom-line regulatoris not tight enough turn the MINI over toaccess the inside set screws in the gripframe. Tighten inside set screws justuntil tight. Do not over tighten any setscrews in the MINI.


23

CAUTION: Before attempting to perform any maintenance operations

or any marker disassembly, makesure that all paintballs and propellantsources have been removed from the

marker. Install a barrel blockingdevice, push the on/off button and

hold for over 1 sec until the Led lightchanges from Red to Green, and keep

the MINI power OFF

The main body consists of the AirTransfer Plate, the Check Valve, theSensor board (which the eyes areattached to), the Main Spring, and theBolt Assembly. The Bolt Assembly canbe accessed by loosening the rear mainbody screw (Primary Retention Screw)so that the internals pop out the back ofthe MINI.

To access the eyes, the main body mustbe separated from the grip frame. Thismust be done in the following order:1. Using a hex wrench, remove the twoset screws accessible through the frontof the trigger guard allowing the frontforegrip assembly to slide down theattachment rail and away from the mainbody.2. After the front foregrip assembly isremoved, remove the two main bodyscrews.3. Slide the Grip Frame Assembly awayfrom the main body. Do NOT twist whileseparating.The Sensor Board is located under theAir Transfer Plate in the bottom of themain body, which is fastened with 7small Hex head screws.


XVII. MAIN BODY Assembly and Disassembly

24

PLEASE USE CAUTION WHEN REMOVING THE SENSOR BOARD – IFTHE CHECK VALVE IS ACCIDENTALLY

REMOVED IT WILL AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE MARKER!

The Check Valve is a very small plasticpiece located between the body and theSensor Board. It is designed to controlthe bolt speed of the marker, but due toits size may be easy to misplace. If it ismisplaced the MINI will fire, but the boltspeed will increase drastically and likelycause problems.

The technology in the MINI Sensorboard and Eyes eliminate the need forwires. The Eyes are an integrated fixedpart of the circuit board. To remove theeyes you will need to remove the Sensorboard, however it is recommended thatthe eyes should be cleaned via thebreach with a clean cloth, cotton swab,or swab style squeegee.

The main body and the grip frame areheld together with a front and a backbody screw (Primary Retention Screw)both 1/8 Hex Key. Use caution whenunscrewing the Primary Retention screwas the bolt and spring will pop out theback of the Mini. Remove the PrimaryRetention Screw at the back of the gundirectly behind the grip frame and on theunderside of the main body. By loosen-ing and removing this screw, the pres-sure of the Main Spring will push theMain Body Internals out of the back ofthe marker, so please keep a firm grip onthe Rear Body Cap!

NOTE – The main spring must be fittedto the bolt and does so in ONLY ONEDIRECTION. The Main Spring is actually slightly tapered or conical, sowhen the spring is slid onto the boltcorrectly, there will be a snug fit andmost importantly when pressed firmly,it will actually “click” into placeagainst the rear of the bolt. Adverselyif you attempt to slide the spring ontothe bolt the wrong way, the fit will beloose and will not “click” into place.

To re-assemble the Main Body, insertthe Main Spring and Bolt Assembly intothe body with the Spring towards thefront of the marker, gently compress theMain Spring by pushing in the components towards the front of themarker, line up the Rear Body Cap, thenre-insert the Primary Retention Screw.

Ball Breakage ProblemsThe balls break in the breach.• The balls in you loader can bind,

messing up your trigger timing.Always use an agitated or powerfeedloader and verify the eyes are on.

• If the ball detents do not move freely,the paintballs may crush against themor they may have stuck in thedepressed position, allowing doublefeeding. Check tension regularly andkeep this area as clean as possible.

• If the ball detents are too sloppy, theball will not be held in the properposition. This may allow the next ballto enter the path of the bolt, subjecting it to impact cracking orshearing. Verify the tension.

Regulator Related ProblemsThe gauge reads correctly when charged,but climbs in pressure after a fewmoments. • The regulator seal has been

contaminated. Disassemble the regulator and clean the seal with a Q-

tip and alcohol or back out theadjuster screw completely and checkthat the pressure is zero. If not backout the reg cap until it reads zero thenadjust te pressure to 200psi with thebrass adjuster only.
