Repairing Air Supply Cylinder Leaks
The most common leak occurs from a bad air supply valve o-ring.
To replace a valve o-ring you must first remove the bad o-ring and
inserted)
then install a new one. This o-ring is located on the tip of your air
supply valve. The best valve o-rings are made of urethane.
The urethane o-rings are not affected by high air supply
pressures. These may be purchased from Tippmann
local paintball dealer.
NOTE: If new valve o-ring does not resolve air supply leak, do not
attempt to repair air supply cylinder. Contact Tippmann Sports,
LLC or your local paintball dealer.
