LUBRICATION

It is recommended that a 100% synthetic oil, such as KC Trouble Free gun oil, be used for lubricating the marker.

1. Before each insertion of the removable power source (tank or remote line) into the ASA, clean the threads and put two 

drops of oil onto them.

2. After removing the bolt/hammer assembly, put a drop of oil onto each o-ring. Put two drops of oil onto the cocking rod. 

Put a drop of oil onto the bolt.

3. Before screwing the barrel onto the marker after removal, clean the barrel threads and put a drop of oil onto the o-ring.

4. After removing the trigger frame, put a drop of oil onto the pivot points of the trigger and sear.

5. The valve and valve o-rings do not require oil.
