enough. When screwing your air tank into the TM7's regula-
tor ASA, it is important to not stop as soon as the marker
pressurizes, but to continue turning until the air tank stops. It
is also acceptable to install the air tank when it is empty, then
have it filled by a professional while it is installed. This will
ensure that you get the maximum air flow from your air tank.

toss them up or throw them at the ground, just drop them

the paintballs are bad and should not be used in the TM7.
In the case of higher-end tournament-grade paintballs, it
may be possible to tune the TM7 to successfully fire brittle
paintballs. Since all conditions are different, it is best to ask
for help with this from your local pro shop.
