Page 9 The grip frame does not need to be removed during normal maintenance of the Field One Force. Keeping the grip frame and the electronics within the grip frame free of moisture and debris is important and can be maintained by removing both sides of the rubber grip panels.
Page 10: Force Electronics And Oled Screen
Force Mainboard comes equipped with a capacitor as a failsafe in case of temporary disconnect between the battery and the electronics in the marker due to vibration or a hard impact with the ground. It is important to keep the Force and the electronic components in the Force free from moisture, paint and debris.
Page 11 Rhino Regulator The Field One Force’s main air supply is regulated by the Rhino Regulator, which is mounted in the top of the ASA and housed within the Force Grip Frame. Once you have connected an air source to the ASA, the air travels through the Rhino Regulator (and is regulated down to about 145-155 psi) and directed to the solenoid and the Force Engine.
Page 12 4C Illuminate Eye System, Eye Covers and Ball Detents The eye system in the breech of the Field One Force is called the 4c Illuminate Eye System. This system uses two sets of break beam eyes to detect whether or not a paintball has settled in the breech and is ready to fire. The upper set of eyes communicates that a ball is moving into the firing position so there is less delay required when the lower set of eyes reads that the paintball has arrived and allows the firing sequence to take place.
Page 13: Force Nucleus Engine
Force Nucleus Engine The Force Nucleus Engine is a Spool Valve type engine that works by moving air from the volume chamber through the bolt tip to propel the paintball through the barrel at consistent velocities. With each shot cycle, the Force solenoid provides a measured amount of air to the engine, moving the ram and bolt forward and back to open and close the different chambers of the Force Nucleus Engine.
Page 14 Force GRIP SHIFT (Dual Position) Foregrip (Battery Compartment) The Force Foregrip is designed to provide 2 different mounting points so the user can choose the foregrip stance or distance that is most comfortable for their playing style. The Force Foregrip position change involves separating the foregrip (also the AA(2) battery compartment) from the reversal plate and then switching the orientation of the Force Foregrip Reversal Plate before reinstalling the foregrip.
Page 15 Force Body The Force Body is the shell that holds the Force together. There are only three o-rings in the force body that seal between both manifolds and the underside of the body. The Jumper board screws into the mainbody and connects to the main board by way of pressure contact pads.
