CLEANING AND GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Clean your Rotor Loader immediately (same day) after each use or whenever it is dirty or covered with paint.
WARNING:
Keep gearbox free of water.
WARNING:
Clean only with plain water. Chemical cleaners (Windex®, 409®, Simple Green®, etc.) contain alcohol and detergents which can
weaken the Rotor Loader.
WARNING:
Never store the DYE® Rotor Loader in areas that may have chemical fumes. Gasoline, kerosene, alcohol and other chemicals
and fumes will weaken the Rotor Loader.
WARNING:
Never store the DYE® Rotor Loader in areas of extreme heat or cold. Temperature extremes will damage the Rotor Loader.
Store the Rotor Loader in a cool, well-ventilated place.
ROTOR LOADER NOT TURNING ON
If your Rotor Loader does not turn on when the on/off button is pressed check the following steps:
1. Make sure the Rotor Loader is empty of all paintballs.
2. Check that the gearbox is inserted correctly into the bottom shell, follow instructions on page 4.
You should hear an audible click when pushing the on/off button.
3. Check that the batteries are fresh and installed the correct way. For battery installation follow instructions on page 2.
4. Make sure the wire from the battery pack to the gearbox is fully inserted into the connector.
5. Check that the Jam Release Trigger is all the way forward. If you turn the loader on but there is no spring tension pulling the Jam Release
trigger back re-insert the gearbox into the bottom shell.
ROTOR LOADER IS LOUD
If the Rotor Loader sounds very loud while running, please do a thorough cleaning of all parts. Dust and dirt will cause excessive sound.
ROTOR LOADER IS JAMMING
If you are getting paintballs jammed in the Rotor Loader please check the following steps.
1. Make sure the two red retaining tabs are turned to locked position. For instructions see page 5.
2. Check that all Rotor Loader parts are clean of any dirt and debris.
3. Install new batteries into the Rotor Loader. If you notice a significant increase in the rotating speed of the carousel, this could be the cause.
4. Make sure you are using fresh, good quality paintballs. Use of soft / wet paintballs or reballs can cause jamming.
5. With no paintballs in the Rotor Loader, pull back the Jam Release Trigger. It should have a spring tension pushing it forward.
If not, please re-insert the gearbox into the bottom shell.
