HYPER2™ REGULATOR
- AD J U S T M E N T S A N D M AI N T E N A N C E
USAGE
Carefully connect your air hose from your bottle or air system to the Hyper2™ In-Line. The Hyper2™ In-Line is set by
the factory to approximately 145psi. This pressure should give you a velocity of approximately 285fps.
ADJUSTMENTS
The output pressure of the Hyper2™ In-Line is adjusted by turning the brass seat housing. The seat housing screw is
located up inside the bottom of the reg. A 3/16” Allen wrench will be needed for this operation. By turning the
housing counterclockwise, you will increase the output pressure of the regulator to the marker. By turning the hous-
ing clockwise, you will decrease the output pressure of the regulator.
After each adjustment of the output pressure of the Hyper2™ In-Line, you will need to cycle your marker a few
times. This will allow your marker and air system to stabilize at their new operating pressure. The Hyper2™ will need
a break-in period of about 2,500 shots to let its seat form to the piston and reach its optimum performance.
The Hyper2™ has eight components and six o-rings
1 Retaining cap
6 Piston small o-ring (007 UR90)
11 Piston large o-ring (018 BN70)
2 Swivel
7 Swivel o-rings (013 BN70)
12 Reg cap o-ring (020 BN70)
3 Seat housing
8 Reg body
13 Reg cap
4 Retainer o-ring (010 BN70)
9 Shim stack
14 ASA o-ring (015 BN70)
5 Reg seat
10 Piston
Disassembly of the Hyper2™ In-Line is easily done with 3/8”
and 5/16” Allen wrenches.
MAINTENANCE
To ensure top performance from the Hyper2™, maintenance should be performed every six months or sooner,
depending on the severity of playing conditions. Cold, wet weather will shorten the effective life of the grease.
Heavy dust or fine sand can infiltrate the Hyper2™ and prevent the piston from moving smoothly and/or cut the
o-rings.
1
Make sure the inlet and outlet ports and connecting fittings are free of all dirt and paint.
2 Examine all o-rings for nicks or cuts.
3 Carefully inspect the seat for excessive wear that might cause spiking and over-pressurizing.
4 Clean any accumulated dirt out of the air chambers and passages.
5 Keep the piston o-rings and spring pack generously greased to allow smooth velocity adjustment and prevent
erratic velocity spikes and drop off.
6 Clean off all old grease that may be contaminated with dirt; reapply fresh grease to the piston and other
necessary areas.
7 Be sure to reassemble the internal components and shim stack (see figure 2) in the proper order and direction.

ANTI CHOP EYES
The Anti Chop Eye (ACE) system will prevent the DM6 from chopping paint by not allowing the
marker to fire until a ball is fully seated in front of the bolt. The eyes use a beam across the
breech. On one side there is a transmitter, and on the opposite side a receiver. In order for the
marker to fire with the eyes turned on, the signal between the two eyes must be broken. After
every shot, before the next ball drops in the breech, the eye transmitter and receiver must see
each other. If there is a malfunction the LED's on the board will start blinking green. This means
that the receiver and the emitter do not see each other. If this is the case, there are normally
two reasons, either there is dirt, paint or grease blocking the beam, or the battery is so low
there is not enough power to create a strong enough beam.
NOTE: If the battery is low, the marker may act as if the eyes are dirty or not fire at all. In this
case, replace the battery.
SELF CLEANING EYE FEATURE
The DM6 is equipped with a self cleaning eye feature. There are two clear acrylic pieces mounted inside the breach of the gun
covering the eyes (see figure 3). When the bolt tip O-ring passes these acrylic pieces, it sweeps off any dirt, grease or paint
that could be blocking the eyes. Normally it is enough to just fire the DM6 to clean anything blocking the eyes. If this does not
clean up the blockage, use a swab to clean up the breach. For a more through clean up, remove the eye plates. To remove the
eye covers, you will need a 1/16” Allen wrench. Simply insert the allen wrench into the hole in the eye cover to access the
retaining screw (see figure 2). As you back the screw out, the plate will be pushed up. Next, pull out the actual eye
receiver/emitter from the self cleaning eye piece (avoid pulling the wires) and finally pull out the self cleaning eye piece with a
pair of needle nose pliers (see figure 3). Avoid scratching the surface of the eye piece that sits inside the breach.
Take care not to lose the ball detent spring while removing the eye plate.
NOTE: Regular eye cleaning is recommended even if no paint is broken. Clean the eyes every two months or 10,000 shots to
eliminate any built up dirt. Excess grease from the front bolt o-ring can build up in front of the eyes. Remember to check for
this after greasing the bolt and cycling the marker a few times.
CHANGING BALL DETENTS
The ball detent system is also located under the eye covers. The ball detent system needs little or no maintenance. There
is a spring behind each detent, which holds the detent forward. This spring pressure should be easily overcome with very
little force, such as a paintball moving past. If you are experiencing double feeding or chopping, check the condition of
your ball detents with your finger to make sure they are not stuck in the up or down position and that they move in and
out of the breech freely. If excessive broken paint or dirt has jammed your ball detents, remove the eye plates (being
careful not to lose the detent springs) and pull the detents out for a thorough cleaning (see figure 4). Reinstall the detents,
springs and eye covers after you have sufficiently cleaned the detents and breech.
NOTE: TAKE CARE WHEN REPLACING THE EYE COVERS. OVER-TIGHTENING THE RETAINING SCREW
COULD RESULT IN STRIPPING THE THREADS.

• The Hyper2™ can hold a small residual
charge of gas, typically 2 shots. Always
discharge the marker in a safe direction to
relieve this residual gas pressure.
• Always remove the regulator from the
DM6 before servicing.
• Improper stacking of shims will cause
failure of the regulator and possible
damage to the DM6.
• Excessive dirt and debris can affect
the Hyper2’s™ performance and increase
the need for servicing.
