Firing Pin Adjustment
While the firing solenoid is not active, the firing pin should not protrude above the top surface of the
canister base:
Figure 5: Correct and Incorrect firing pin positions
If the pin protrudes above the top surface of the canister base, this might lead to the pin opening the
canister valve as a canister is installed, causing gas to be released.
The relaxed position of the firing pin can be changed by adjusting the position of the two M5 plain
nuts and the washer on the firing pin shaft. Winding this assembly further up the pin will reduce the
height of the pin while it is in a relaxed state.
To perform this adjustment:
1.
Depress the spring.
2.
Using a 8mm spanner, wind the nuts up the firing pin shaft one at a time.
3.
When the pin is in the desired position, tighten both nuts against the washer.
