QUICK START UP GUIDE

Before playing with your new SLG™ paintball marker there
are a few important steps to take.

STEP 1. BATTERY INSTALLATION

A. Remove three right hand side grip panel screws with a

3

32

” allen key.

B. Open grip panel and install 9V battery into the
connector inside the frame.
C. and - markings on frame to install battery
correctly.
D. Close grip panel and tighten the three screws back into
place. When closing the panel observe that no wires get
caught between the frame and the grip panel.

STEP 2. BARREL INSTALLATION

A. Screw on the barrel to the front of the SLG™.  Make sure
it threads all the way in and has a snug fit.
B. Attach the barrel sock so that it covers the tip of the
barrel and secure the strap around the back of the SLG™.

STEP 3. LOADER INSTALLATION

Tighten your loader into the adjustable feedneck using a
5/32” allen key.  For best performance, use a force feeding
motorized loader.

STEP 4. ATTACHING GAS SOURCE

Be sure there are no paintballs loaded in the breech of the SLG™.
If the bolt is in the forward position, a ball can be fired when gas
enters the marker. Screw on a preset air system into the airport
located on the bottom of the grip frame.  Be sure the air system is
screwed all the way into the Airport.  If there is a leak while
screwing in the air system or if no gas enters the SLG™ when the
air system is screwed all the way in, consult page 19 in this manual 
for pin depressor adjustment.

STEP 5. TURNING ON THE SLG™ AND CHECKING THE VELOCITY

A. Make sure you and everybody around you is wearing 
ASTM/CE approved paintball masks.
B. Press and hold the top button located behind the grip 
frame until the SLG™ turns on.  

WARNING

: The SLG™ is now LIVE. 

Make sure barrel sock is in place and do not point the SLG™ 
towards anything you don’t intend to shoot.
C. Fill up the loader with .68 caliber paintballs.
D. Shoot the SLG™ over a chronograph to check the velocity. 
If adjustment is needed, adjust the velocity by turning the 
Hyper3™ velocity adjustment screw with a 

3

16

” allen key. 

In (clockwise) will reduce the velocity and out (counter clockwise)
will increase the velocity.  After each adjustment 
it takes a few shots before the change can be seen on the
chronograph. Never adjust the SLG™ to shoot faster than 
300fps or what the field rules/local laws permit.
