Leaks
constantly
through
the
chamber
Solenoid may
need to be
reset.
To reset the solenoid, with the eyes OFF, pull the trigger
repeatedly until the solenoid makes a clicking sound again
with each trigger pull, but do not pull the trigger more than
10 times, as this can damage the solenoid. If after 10 pulls
the solenoid still doesn't click, it may need to be replaced.
Multiple
balls fired
from only
one shot
Shoots
more than
once from
one trigger
pull
Regulator
leaks from
bottom
plug
Ball detents
may be stick-
ing open.
Loader forcing
paintballs too
hard into marker.
Battery may
be low.
Trigger may need
to be adjusted.
Adjust over-
pressurization
relief valve.
Remove both ball detent covers and clean the ball detents with
a cloth. You may also add some grease to the outer surface of
the detents to make sure they are not sticking within the covers.
Try a different loader, such as the Empire Magna Drive
Loader. If using a Halo series or Empire Reloader B series
loader, try installing an Empire Magna Clutch Upgrade Kit..
Replace battery with a fresh Duracell or Energizer brand
alkaline 9-volt.
Make sure the trigger has plenty of travel both before and
after the activation point.
The plug on the underside of the regulator is an over-pres-
surization relief. If it is leaking, most likely the regulator is set
to too high of a pressure and needs to be lowered. If the
regulator is set to 200 psi or less and the over-pressurization
relief is still leaking, it is possible to turn the plug cap just a
small amount in the clockwise direction, until the leak stops.
Regulator
is slow to
recharge
Air tank is not
screwed all
the way into
the TM7’s
regulator ASA.
If during rapid firing the first ball comes out of the barrel at
full velocity and following shots decrease substantially, watch
the gauge on the TM7 regulator to see if the needle drops
down significantly and is slow to come back to the set pres-
sure. This is typically the result of not screwing your air tank in
enough. When screwing your air tank into the TM7’s regula-
tor ASA, it is important to not stop as soon as the marker
pressurizes, but to continue turning until the air tank stops. It
is also acceptable to install the air tank when it is empty, then
have it filled by a professional while it is installed. This will
ensure that you get the maximum air flow from your air tank.
Regulator
pressure
spikes
Regulator
adjusted too
high.
If the needle on the regulator’s gauge climbs well over 200
psi when attempting to install the air tank, first remove the
brass adjustment screw in the front of the regulator and try
again to install the air tank. If the needle reads 0, reinstall the
adjustment screw and turn in until the needle reads 200 psi.
Breaks
paint in
chamber
Eyes are
turned off.
Low quality
or brittle
paintballs.
Loader push-
ing too hard.
Bolt or bolt
guide o-rings
may be worn.
Bolt front seal
may be
missing.
Check valve
may be
missing.
Only fire paintballs with the marker’s eyes on.
Do a paintball drop test. On a level and smooth, hard, out-
door surface, such as concrete or asphalt pavement, drop
ten paintballs one at a time from about 5 feet high. Don’t
toss them up or throw them at the ground, just drop them
straight down. If more than 3 paintballs out of 10 break,
the paintballs are bad and should not be used in the TM7.
In the case of higher-end tournament-grade paintballs, it
may be possible to tune the TM7 to successfully fire brittle
paintballs. Since all conditions are different, it is best to ask
for help with this from your local pro shop.
Try a different loader, such as the Empire Magna Drive
Loader. If using a Halo series or Empire Reloader B series
loader, try installing an Empire Magna Clutch Upgrade Kit.
Air blowing past worn o-rings can easily break paintballs in
the feed neck. Replace the bolt o-rings and the smaller 3
bolt guide O-rings and apply fresh grease.
Make sure the bolt front seal is in place and has a light
application of grease to reduce friction.
Make sure the check valve is in place. Without the check
valve, the forward force on the bolt is too great and can be
too hard on the paintballs.
