8. DISASSEMBLY AND MAINTENANCE (Cont’d)
Quick Release Pins:
WARNING:
Before removing the quick Strip Pins from marker. Confirm the
marker is degassed and the gauge reads 0 psi.
Push the pins with finger or hex wrench from
the right side of the marker and
remove (Fig 8.2).
Feed Ramp:
Once the Quick Strip Pins are removed, the
Feed Ramp will lift out of the shells. When
re-installing the Feed Ramp, make sure the
curved end plugs correctly into the feed tube
from the loader section and that the front
sections mates correctly with the Body. If
installed correctly, the holes for the Quick
Strip Pins will align easily (Fig 8.3).
Internal Assembly:
WARNING:
• Before the Internal Assembly can be removed, the Side Covers, Top Rail, quick Strip
Pins, Barrel, and Feed Ramp must be removed first.
• Before removing the Internal Assembly, make sure the Eyes are still properly within
the Body to prevent damaging the eye harness.
• Using two hands place one finger in the
Breech and one on the back of the
Internal Assembly and slowly lift
the entire Internal Assembly from the
shells (Fig 8.4).
Removal of Bolt Guide Assembly
• Push and hold in the Bolt guide release
while the rear of the marker is facing a
safe direction.
• While holding the button in, turn the Bolt guide clockwise until it stops.
• The Bolt guide assembly should spring back and stop, if it does not; pull it back
until it stops.
• Next, push the Bolt guide assembly slightly forward and then turn it counter
clockwise and remove.
• If the Bolt and spring do not come out with the Bolt guide, use a barrel swab to push them
out from the front of the marker.
Maintenance of Bolt and Bolt Guide
• Inspect the O-rings on both the Bolt and Bolt guide for any wear or damage. Replace
damaged or worn O-rings if necessary.
• Lubricate all O-rings on Bolt and Bolt guide with the supplied grease or Dow 33.
Only a small amount of grease is needed.
Maintenance of Poppet
Make notice how far the Bolt Guide Cap is positioned within the Bolt Guide. When
reinstalling the Bolt Guide Cap make sure it is replaced to the same location. This will help
keep your velocity settings close to its previous setting. Make sure to chronograph the
D*Fender before using.
