Cocker Hollowpoint 3way and Blade frame hose configuration

[rob_evanson]

I've got a mechanical blade frame and a hollowpoint 3 way, now I know your apparently supposed to swap the hoses around for the blade frame, but I've also heard that sometimes you have to do it for 3ways too. Can someone tell me the correct way to hose up the front of a cocker with this config and a Nexus Ram.

A hollow point uses the regular order of hosing. Which means that if you fit a Blade, you'll have to do it in reverse when compared to a slide trigger. Just spend some time looking at it, and try to see which way the gas goes in your gun and what it does once there and it'll all make sense.

3-way hose goes to;

barb nearest semiblock ==> rear of ram
centre barb ==> LPR
front barb ==> Front of ram

Thanx. I did have it the right way. It was pissing air everywhere when gassed up and there was loads of pressure pushing the back block backwards.

The Shocktech Bomb is the only three way that works in reverse from a normal one (i.e., in a slider config., hose runs from back of three way to back of ram, and front to front, and hinge config., runs back to front and front to back). If your cocker was previously timed for a slider, or a different three way, that's probably why it was leaking like that.
