Air Problem

[callum118]

Hello, bought a promaster yesterday and bought also a second hand air tank (0.8l) I put in to air tank to an ASA and it makes the noise when it goes in. Theres a problem when firing, it doesnt actually fire when I pull the trigger (the swich is on), but when i push the top bit forward (which goes back and forth when normally fireing) then it fires (quiet noise), but when i push the top thing half way it fires proply. Why doesnt it fire without me not pushing it?

By the way the air tank is like nothing in. (half of 1, and it goes upto 6)

Sorry dont know the parts as I've just started! Thanks!!!

Sounds like theres not enough air left in the bottle..

Get it filled up then try again mate.

3000PSI bottle.

You most likely dont have enough pressure left in the bottle, fill it up again (it only goes to 3000, as its a standard gauge it'll show up to 6000 ). If that doesnt work, change the battery

are you using paint or dry firing just if your not using paint its because your eyes are on

 

[callum118]

No im dry firing, whats eyes?

Do you have an ICD PROMASTER?

Does this happen with every promaster

cheers

callum, ffs find someone who knows how to setup a marker and get them to physically show you, before you kill yourself.

your not helping me, so you shouldnt be commenting on my thread

 

[Tom Allen]

my advice is probably the soundest advice given to you so far in this thread. You don't seem to have a clue what you're doing, and that usually ends in tears.

Yes mate I dont have a clue - have you noticed i've posted this on the Newbie bit of the forum, so people with a bit of experience and knowledge of paintballing can offer to help..?

I think Tom is helping ,the pressure in these bottles will and has caused some devastating injuries.I work with high pressure gasses and iam still cautious every time i use the stuff.
