Even the best quality paintballs will vary in size from one batch to the next and as weather conditions
change. While your Envy
TM
will work well even with a poor paint to barrel t, optimal performance will
be achieved with a proper t.
The ideal t between the paintball and the barrel is when the ball is inserted in the bore (the end that
screws into the Envy
TM
) and does not slip or roll through to the muzzle (the business end) on its own.
The ball should sit in place, even when the barrel is pointed straight down. If the paintball can roll out
on its own, the t is too loose. The ball should be able to be expelled from the barrel by blowing it out,
like a blowgun, using a minimal amount of breath. If the ball is difcult to blow through, the t is too
tight, which can lead to ball breakage.
The velocity, or speed at which a paintball is red from the Envy
TM
, must be measured and adjusted to
below the paintball eld’s velocity limit immediately before each day of play (for player safety). If CO
2
is used, velocity should be checked and adjusted multiple times during the day. In an area where it is
safe to re paintballs, while wearing ASTM compliant eye and face protection for paintball, re three or
four shots over a chronograph to measure the velocity at which the paint is being red.
If velocity adjustment is necessary, Use a 5/32-inch allen wrench on the adjuster in the bottom of the
vertical regulator, turn clockwise to increase the velocity/pressure, and counter-clockwise to decrease.
Take three or four shots after every adjustment to allow the gas pressure inside the Envy
TM
to stabilize.
Adjust until the marker is ring consistently within the limits for the eld where you are playing. For
safety reasons, never adjust the Envy
TM
to re at greater than 300 feet per second (91.44 meters per
second).
