Hi everyone!

I have a teammate with a few issues that he asked me to post about:
1) Dye DM8, as soon as he turns on his ASA with a bottle attached, it just vents air straight out the barrel. It won't fire, nothig just vents it straight out the front (but nowhere else).
I have looked his LPR and it's not all the way out or in, I have tried moving it both in, out and many variations to see if there was any change at all. There was not. His reg is not screwed all the way in/out either. When you pull the trigger with it venting you can hear the noid clicking, but nothing else happens.I do not get it. The bolt is also OK, all o-rings fine and lubed etc etc.
Any help there?
2) DP Threshold - always fun.
Everytime it fires it leaks air out of the grips, but this used to be only when it fired. It would fire and at the same time as the air going out the barrel to fire the ball, it would come out the side of the grips. This has now changed to as soon as the ASA is turned on, it just vents out of the grips like mad and won't stop until you turn off the ASA.

Please, can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!!

Try this with the dm.

Lpr wind all the way in till stops. Then back out 5 full turn. That will be set correctly.

Turn adjust screw all way in on the inline reg.

On page 19 of the manual

http://dyematrix.com/manuals/DyeManuals/DM8_Manual.pdf

Change o-ring 6 + 7 in the top hat.

Then air up marker and turn inline reg adjust out half a turn try firing. If it doesn't fire adjust reg again. Keep going till it fires. Should be ok then. If you still having problems could be reg needs looking at and over pressurising.
