Trigger Adjustment

ADJUSTING YOUR TRIGGER

The trigger’s forward travel and over travel are fully adjustable so that the user can fine-tune the trigger to his or her exact liking.

• Remove the grip frame from the body of the DM4. 
• As you pull the frame away from the body, take care as to not damage the wires 

running between the two parts. Be careful not to lose the trigger spring.

• The two adjustment screws are located at the top of the trigger in the grip frame. 

[see figure 1]

• Use a 5/64 Allen wrench to make the desired adjustments. 
• The screw to the front of the trigger controls the forward travel. Screwing it in will

shorten the trigger’s length of pull.

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 to 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.

• When the desired trigger pull has been achieved, reattach the 

frame to the body.

• Take care that the spring is seated properly. Using the trigger 

without a spring is not recommended and will cause the micro 
switch to fail much sooner than when a spring used.

• Be sure that all wires are laid properly in 

their appropriate cavities. 

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 micro switch to not function properly or fail.

CAUTION: BE SURE YOU DO NOT PINCH 
THE WIRES BETWEEN THE FRAME AND 
BODY WHEN REATTACHING 
THE FRAME TO THE 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 

pre-mature wear on the micro switch, 
resulting in failure.

• Be sure you do not pinch the wires 

between the frame and body when 
reattaching  the frame to the body.
