A drop or two of love juice (synthetic oil only) in the airline at the bottom of the minireg, gas up and fire a dozen or so shots off to circulate the oil through the system.

Keep it clean, especially the trigger pivot point.

Check the seal underneath the breach, as this is a weak point, and can be lost easily. i've seen them glued in, but be careful to keep the top of the seal clean.

Keep the bolt clean.

Each has his or her own priority for maintenance, but these should keep it singing.

Ok mate.

1. the airline is the pipe that comes from the compressed air reg to the gun. These are normally a black plastic tube around 6mm diameter, fitted into a push in fitting from the air reg, to a similar fitting under the minireg.

2. When you open the breach, where the bolt is. There is a seal on the underside of the breach that seals the gas flow, from the body of the angel to the bolt. It is about 10mm diameter and about 1mm thick.

Enjoy your new baby, these markers are great, and a good one will feel like it shoots itself. They are well made and the support is excellent.

Don't listen to him, ir3s rock, LCDs rock, speeds rock and so do 4s, smart parts markers don't do anything better than angels, and what's more important wdp aren't sucking the life out of paintball, so they deserve support.:D :D

Amen toma. The Angel IR3, Speed and 4 will outshoot any SP marker to date, and WDP aren't a bunch of MF's trying to monopolize the paintball industry. SP will never get another dime out of me. If they were the only paintball manufacturer in the world, I'd quit playing.

Angel's are simple, oil every couple cases, clean the bolt and breach, wipe the paint off the body when you're done playing, and that's basically it. If you want to read the manual, find more Angel tips, or find a good tech, go to www.angel-owners.com. Great angel resource.
