Velocity Adjustment continued from page 5.
ADJUSTMENT TO INCREASE VELOCITY — Insert 3mm
allen wrench into set screw in port and turn counter clockwise
(set screw moves out).
NOTE: One full turn of this set screw will change the
velocity approximately 12 F.P.S.
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the set screw totally
or you will lose velocity. IMPORTANT: If set screw
is turned out past flush, the gun will not cock.

MAINTENANCE

1-M. Field Barrel Cleaning

The cleaning port in the left side of the receiver has been
designed to clean the barrel from the breech end in the
field quickly and efficiently with our specially designed
cleaning cable.
If this gun is kept clean and good paintballs are used
there is little chance of a ball breaking. However, if a
ball should break in the field, follow these simple instruc-
tions to get back into the game.
• Remove cleaning cable from its storage position in the
bottom of the pump handle.
• Turn weapon right side down to prevent a ball from
dropping into the chamber and pump action all the way
rearward. Insert small end of cleaning cable into the
port and feed it into the barrel until it extends out of
the muzzle.
• Grasp small end of cable and pull it through the barrel
& it will pull the paint and shell fragments out of the bar-
rel. You can now tilt the receiver back up to let a ball fall
into the chamber and pump it closed.
• Replace cable into its slot under pump handle.

2-M. Field Stripping / Reassembly

WARNING: Do not field strip / disassemble, assemble
or perform any type of maintenance to the SL-68 II
while it is loaded or pressurized with CO
Field Stripping: Loosen field strip bolt at the front of
the receiver with the 3/16 allen wrench that has been
enclosed with your SL-68 II. The barrel will now pull
straight out of the receiver along with the pump handle
and rod which is attached to the bolt. The hammer spring
and hammer can be removed by tilting the receiver for-
ward and allowing them to fall out. The valve system
will remain in the receiver.
This is the only disassembly required to perform periodic
cleaning or barrel change.
Reassembly
: Reassembly is in reverse order of field
stripping.
Be sure to insert hammer facing the correct
way, which is with the "hook" of the sear towards the front
of the receiver.
Due to the Anti-Kink design of the bolt it is possible to
assemble bolt and hammer with spring compressed and
sear holding hammer to bolt. Then inserting all into front
of the receiver as an assembly. USE CAUTION if using
this method as the sear could accidently disengage from
the bolt and would be shot off the bolt by the hammer
spring.
WARNING: Do not over tighten clamp bolt when
reassembling. It takes very little clamp pressure to
hold barrel firmly in place. Over tightening could
prevent gun from cocking properly.
