Rake aboot 4,936 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hello children! The airranger leaked like a bugger when I went to fill it the other day, so after call to daystate and 6 quid lighter for a seal set ,I set about the thing tonight. Turned out it was the smaller of the 2 seals in the main valve. Replaced the bottle seal and the transfer port seals as well as the breach seal and bobs yer auntie. £6 ,,result, sitting at 150 bar over night for a soak test. The gun was running 10.5 Ft/lb so sorted that out as well up to 11.2 at the mo. no need for much more whilst non fac but I am happier with the small tweak into the 11`s Polished the cocking pin so thats all lovely and smooth operating and generally cleaned and regreased. Need to re-zero manyana and get back in about the crows! What a tool this thing is !! Word to the wise, If I made all that sound easy ,,it was.. but be aware!! if you`re not happy faffing about with 200 bar pneumatics then get a shop to do it for you! Quote Link to post

Rake aboot 4,936 Posted January 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) Thanks To be honest,,if you make sure the bottles drained,,it`s all just O rings and screws really,, bit of molykote and some gun grease. Not for everyone though,, you still have to fill i t back up to 200 bar after you have worked on it so you do have to be confident, ATB Edited January 21, 2011 by Rake aboot Quote Link to post
