REGULATORS
Included with the DEFIANT 2 are 2 High-Flow Regulators. The Low Pressure Regulator (LPR)
uses a standard 1/8 inch hex key for adjustment, while the High Pressure Regulator (HPR)
uses a standard 3/16 inch hex key for adjustment. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to
increase pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.

The low pressure regulator is mounted towards the front of the Marker under the barrel. It
controls the cycling pressure of the Marker. The ideal operating pressure should be between
85 – 95 PSI.
NEVER EXCEED 100 PSI AS OVER-PRESSURIZING CAN DAMAGE SOLENOID.
The
low pressure regulator is not used for velocity adjustments but for cycling pressures only.

The high pressure regulator (also called the inline regulator) is the vertical regulator that screws
into the bottom of the ASA Receiver. All velocity adjustments are done with the High Pressure
Regulator. Typically, pressures vary from 200 PSI to 280 PSI depending on chronograph speed.
AMMUNITION ASPECTS
H O P P E R
The
DEFIANT 2
requires a high feed rate of paintballs to make full use of its features.
To satisfy this need, the use of a motorized loader is recommended.
P A I N T
Using top grade paint ensures the utmost in performance and accuracy.
GAS CONFIGURATIONS
Preset and Adjustable Tanks
A Compressed Air System also known as a Nitrogen Air System is the recommended propellant air
source for operating the
DEFIANT 2
. If you are using an Adjustable Tank the output pressure should
be set between 400 & 500 PSI, and Preset Tanks should be low pressure or 400 PSI output, however
a high pressure system is acceptable.
Co2
Co2
IS NOT
the recommended propellant for the
DEFIANT 2
. You should only use a Compressed
Air System to operate your
DEFIANT 2
. When attaching air system hose fittings to your Marker,
DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE
. Use a thread sealant such as Loctite 545 instead.
GETTING STARTED
Maintenance for the DEFIANT 2 is very simple.
The Bolt should be lubricated sparingly with TRI-FLOW. Lubricating once a day or when dirty will
increase the life of the Ball Detents and also eliminate bolt drag.
The Ram or “Hammer” should be greased every 5000 shots with
DOW 55
. First degas your Marker.
Next, remove Bolt and Encapsulated Ram Sleeve Assembly, then remove the E-clip securing the
threaded Bolt Pin Receiver and Delrin Spacer and unscrew both. Next, unscrew the End Cap from
the Encapsulated Ram Sleeve and Ram will slide out of the rear of the Sleeve. Clean inside of Ram
Sleeve with a Q-tip and grease the internal O-ring located at the front end of the Ram Sleeve with
DOW 55
, grease the Rear Ram O-ring and reassemble.
The Low Pressure Regulator Piston and the High-Pressure Regulator Piston O-rings should be greased
every 10,000 shots. Performing this simple maintenance will increase the life of the O-rings and keep
the Marker performing at the highest level possible.
NOTE:
Always ensure Air Source is disconnected and Marker is fully degassed BEFORE performing
any/all maintenance, or when Marker is not operational.
