DLX Luxe X - Hardware Adjustments

ORIENTATION 1. 2 INSTALLING THE BARREL BLOCKER
THE BARREL BLOCKING DEVICE IS A CRITICAL PIECE of paintball safety equipment—nearly as important
as paintball goggles. The Barrel Blocker serves to protect against accidental discharge of a paintball by
catching it before it can cause harm. A Barrel Blocker is included with the Luxe
®
and must be used every time
it is handled in an area where people or property are not properly protected by paintball goggles or paintball
field netting. To use the Barrel Blocker simply slip it over the end of the barrel and stretch its cord back over
the rear of the Luxe® [FIG. 1] Use the strap’s adjuster to cinch the strap tight, so that the Barrel Blocker can
provide protection against accidental discharge of a paintball.
THE BARREL BLOCKER SHOULD ONLY BE REMOVED WHEN THE LUXE
®
IS ON A “LIVE” PAINTBALL FIELD AND ALL
PERSONS INVOLVED ARE WEARING PROPER PAINTBALL PROTECTION.
ORIENTATION 1. 4 HANDLING THE LiPo BATTERY
INCLUDED WITH YOUR LUXE
®
IS A RECHARGEABLE LITHIUM-POLYMER BATTERY. The battery may be
removed for inspection, charging with the optional Luxe
®
battery charger or for a quick-change with a fully
charged battery. For battery removal instructions, see the Hardware section of this manual.
DO NOT IMMERSE THE BATTERY IN LIQUID. STORE IN A COOL, DRY ENVIRONMENT WHEN NOT IN USE. DO
NOT CONNECT THE BATTERY DIRECTLY TO AN ELECTRICAL OUTLET. DO NOT STRIKE OR THROW THE BATTERY
AGAINST A HARD SURFACE. DO NOT MODIFY, PIERCE, OR SOLDER NEW CONNECTIONS TO THE BATTERY. STORE
AND TRANSPORT THE BATTERY IN A CASE WHICH PROTECTS IT FROM DAMAGE OR CONTACT WITH SHARP OR
METAL OBJECTS WHEN NOT IN USE. BATTERY DAMAGE MAY LEAD TO FIRE OR EXPLOSION. IF THE BATTERY
LEAKS, AVOID CONTACT WITH FLUIDS. IN CASE OF EYE CONTACT DO NOT RUB, RINSE WITH CLEAN RUNNING
WATER AND SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. IF THE BATTERY SWELLS, EMITS SMOKE OR GIVES OFF AN
ODOR, DISCONNECT IT AND CONTACT A BATTERY RECYCLER FOR DISPOSAL ADVICE. DO NOT THROW USED
BATT ERIES I N THE TRA SH, TU RN TH EM OVER T O A BAT TERY RECYCLING PRO G R AM (COL LEC TION POINTS AR E
FOUND AT MANY HARDWARE STORES AND HOME CENTERS).
ORIENTATION 1. 3 SELECTING AND INSTALLING A LOADER
YOUR LUXE
®
IS A HIGH PERFORMANCE PROFESSIONAL GRADE PAINTBALL MARKER. Although its Vision
anti-chop system will allow it to operate properly with any paintball loader without fear of chopping paint, a high-
end forced-feed loader must be used to achieve high rates of fire.
The Luxe
®
is equipped with a locking feedneck which allows it to adapt to variance in hopper neck sizes and
to release hoppers quickly when desired, but hold them securely on the field [FIG. 2] Pulling the lock lever
away from the feedneck moves it to the open, or unlocked position. While it is open the locking mechanism
may be adjusted by turning its knurled knob, or using a 1/8-inch allen wrench if it is stiff. Turning clockwise
will cause the feedneck to grip tighter, while turning it counterclockwise will result in a better fit for larger
hopper necks. Place the hopper in the feedneck, and secure it by closing the lever. If the latch is difficult to
close, do not force it. Instead, open it fully, then turn the adjuster counter-clockwise and try again until you
have adjusted for a perfect fit.
OVER-TIGHTENING THE FEED NECK CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO ITS LATCHING MECHANISM. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
