Basic teardown and reassembly of a Spyder paintball gun/marker


By Kingmman factory representative

Today were going to show you how to remove all of the Internals of a Spyder paintball marker, and also reassemble. The easiest way to do it is to remove the disconnect pin from the marker. Then as you remove the larger pin make sure you hold the back end in place cause there is a spring in there and the spring tension will shoot the internals out the back. Slide everything out the back of the marker, now your spyder has been disassembled. If you notice on the bolt after some use you will see some wear and tear on the top portion you do not need to worry, it will not affect the performance of the marker. The reason it has wear on there is as the bolt sits inside the marker air is coming from in the valve up into the bolt, the bolt will pivot up as it is sliding forward causing the scratches on the bolt and also on the inside of the marker, it will not affect the performance, it will not affect the flight of the paintball so you do not need to worry about it. Now were going to show you how to reassemble the parts. You connect the striker to the venturi bolt , slide everything back into the marker. On basically all of our spyder markers you will notice that it will stop, what it is the striker is getting caught on the sear in order to get the internals in all you have to do is apply a little bit of pressure and just pull the trigger and it will slide in the goes for the electronic markers and the non electric. If you notice this black rubber bumper is called the striker bumper, always have the in the back behind the striker a common mistake by people is to put it in front of the striker which actually lowers your velocity and causes re-cocking problems. Just put the spring and the spring guide in through the back and the striker plug holds everything in. Place the disconnect pin back into the marker. Now your Spdyer marker is reassembled.

Regulator Adjusment

By Kingman factory Representative


Right now I would like to show you how to adjust the regulator on you Spyder paintball marker. If you look at the gauge right next to it is the adjustment screw take the Allen wrench that is provided with the marker, put it in, turn the screw out to raise the pressure. On most of the markers, they require 800 psi to work properly. As you turn the screw out the regulator will go up. If you need to lower pressure in the marker, turn the screw in. You need to shoot the marker after every adjustment to get the correct pressure on the gauge.

Velocity Adjustment

Today I will like to show you how to adjust the velocity on a Spyder paintball marker. If you notice we have two different velocity adjustment screws on our Spyder markers. The first one seen here on our Spyder shutter is the thumb adjuster. Turn the velocity screw clockwise to raise the velocity, turn the velocity screw counter clockwise and it will lower the velocity. Once you have the velocity set at about 280 fps by the chronograph, use the Allen wrench that is provided and tighten down the screw which will lock the velocity screw to prevent moving while you are playing. The other type of velocity adjustment screw is on the Spyder Spree. You have to use the large Allen wrench that is provided with the marker insert it into the screw, once again you turn the velocity screw clockwise to raise the velocity and you turn the screw counter clockwise to lower the velocity. Once again you should have it set at around 280 fps. That is how you adjust the velocity on our Spyder paintball markers.

Disconnect Hose Removal & Re-Installation

Right now I would like to show how to disconnect a hose on a Spyder paintball marker. If you look, you have the large female end that is connected to the male adapter . What you need to do is you need to loosen the end in order to disconnect the hose. Do not loosen the inner nuts from the female nut the separation of these two will damage the hose and cause an air leak . You will need to replace the hose in order to stop the leak. Once you remove the larger female nut from the larger male to male adapter there is a small white plastic oring in here that works as a washer to help prevent air leaks, check that and make sure there are no scratches or foreign objects in there. Now that you removed the disconnect hose from the male adapter, once you are ready to put it back on just attach it back to the male adapter and tighten the hose. That is how you remove and re-install the disconnect hose on a Spyder paintball marker
