STEP 5: Inspect New E-GRIP Kit Lower Receiver.
1) Visually inspect new electric kit lower receiver. Check that the
trigger assembly is intact and the safety is in the “safe” (red not
showing - to the right) position.
STEP 6: Attach Lower to Upper Receiver
1) Align lower receiver front push pin hole (#1) with
upper receiver hole (#1) then gently rock rear of grip
to align upper & lower push pin hole (#2).
2) With holes aligned, insert two lower receiver push
pins to attach.
STEP 7: Attach Tank Adapter to Lower Receiver
1) Remove (#3) receiver bolt from new lower
receiver. Slide tank adapter into lower receiver, align
holes then insert receiver bolt (#3) and tighten into
receiver bolt nut.
STEP 8: Install Tank Into Pistol Grip TankAdapter
Note: Eye protection designed for paintball use must
be worn at all times when handling this marker by the
user and any person within range.
Standard Tank Installation Into Pistol GripAdapter.
1) First, make sure that the marker is on SAFE mode.
Press safety “In” on left receiver half to lock trigger &
put marker in SAFE mode. (When safety button on left
side of marker shows red, the marker is in FIRE mode
and marker can fire.)
2) Next, cock the marker by sliding the bolt cocking
handle all the way back until you hear/feel the bolt lock
intoplace,then release thecockinghandle to itsforward
position.
3) To install the tank, insert the tank valve end into the
tank adapter at the back end of the pistol grip. Twist
the tank clockwise into the marker, until it stops. Adjust
the butt plate if necessary. Your marker is ready to fire
once you switch to FIRE mode from SAFE mode.
You are now ready to tune the A-5 E-GRIP rate of fire
and set the mode of fire.

STEP 4: Install Battery Into E-GRIP Kit Receiver
Follow Battery Installation Instructions on back page.
STEP 1: PREPARE MARKER FOR SAFE
DISASSEMBLY before beginning disassembly.
Todo so, you must: (1-unloadmarker; (2-remove air source; (3-discharge
stored air; (4-uncock marker before further disassembly.
1) Unload your marker: firstremove the hopper. Then, pointyourmarker
in a safe direction and fire several times to be sure there are no balls left
in the feeder or lodged in the chamber.
2) Remove tank: To remove a charged air cylinder, turn the cylinder
approximately 3/4 of a turn counterclockwise or out. This allows the
tank pin valve to close so that no air will enter the marker. Point the
marker in a safe direction and fire the remaining air in the marker by
pulling the trigger until the marker stops firing. (This may take 4-5 shots)
If your marker keeps firing after you have turned the tank 3/4 of a
turn, the tank pin valve has not closed yet and you may have to turn the
tank counterclockwise a little further.
If you turn the tank 3/4 of a turn and it begins to leak before you
pull the trigger you have turned it too far and may have damaged the
tank o-ring.
3) After air tank is removed, point & fire the marker in a safe
direction until stored air is completely discharged.
4) Put the marker in the uncocked position: hold the bolt cocking
handle back - then pull the trigger and release handle forward to
un-cock the marker.

front page (unload your marker / remove air source / discharge
stored air / uncock marker) before further disassembly.
(EXAMPLE: If you fail to remove the air source before removing
lower receiver, the marker will fire uncontrollably - possibly
resulting in personal injury and damage to the marker).
(2 Remove lower receiver as outlined in “STEP 2” on the front
page(itis not necessary toremovetankadapter to replace battery).
(3 Remove trigger assembly from lower receiver. To do so, push
safety (A) out left side of lower receiver and carefully lift trigger
assemblyout, keeping itintact. (It isnot necessary todisassemble
trigger assembly to replace battery. NOTE: Do not replace sear
spring with spring from old trigger assembly, tensions are
specifically designed for E-GRIPTM Kit and it will not operate
properly if you do so). It is not necessary to disassemble lower
receiver any further to replace battery.
4) Notice how battery wiresfrom inside lower receiverare inslot (B)
beside top of armature pin (C) and the position of the armature pin.
Remove battery from inside lower receiver. Do not jerk it out by
the wires, carefully take it out. If you turn the receiver upside down
the armature pin may come out, this is ok, just be sure to replace it.
