USING YOUR MARKER
AIR SUPPLY
The 2010 DM Series should be operated using air/nitrogen gas only. This air needs to be
supplied to the Hyper3™ in-line regulator at a regulated pressure of no more than 850 psi. The
Hyper3™ in-line regulator comes factory preset at 145psi.
GASSING UP YOUR 2010 DM SERIES
Screw in your air system to the ON/OFF airport and turn the knob of the airport clockwise, all
the way in.
TURNING ON YOUR 2010 DM SERIES
The 2010 DM Series’s power is controlled by two buttons. The top button turns the marker
on and off, while the bottom button turns the eyes on and off. Hold the power button for 3
seconds to turn the marker on. The LED in the grip will illuminate during the boot sequence.
NOTE: If the eye is not working properly, try replacing the battery.
Blue:: - Boot sequence
Red: - Breech is clear, no ball (eyes on)
Green: - Ball in breech, ready to fire (eyes on)
Blinking Red: - Eyes are off
Blinking Green: - Eye failure (see page 26)
Blinking Blue: - Indicates a low battery, battery should be changed
as soon as possible
LPR
The LPR is pre-set from the factory at approximately 75-80 psi and should need no adjustment
out of the box. If fine tuning adjustment is desired or needed, you must be sure that you are
adjusting the LPR correctly. See page 23 for detailed instructions. If the LPR is improperly
4
adjusted, you could dramatically hinder the 2010 DM Series’s performance or
prevent the marker from functioning at all.
NOTE: Turning the adjustment screw clockwise, or in, will lower the LPR’s output pressure.
Turning the adjustment screw counterclockwise, or out, will raise the LPR’s output pressure.
HOPPER
To get the best performance out of your 2010 DM Series, it is recommended that you use a
motorized loader. Preferably, the Rotor™ Loader.
ADJUSTING VELOCITY
The velocity is adjusted through the Hyper3™ in-line regulator. The Hyper3™ in-line is preset from
the factory at approximately 145 psi. This pressure setting should have the marker shooting at
about 285fps. Your paint-to-barrel fit will also have a noticeable affect on your velocity. Make
sure that the paintball fits into the barrel loosely but does not drop through.
NOTE: For the Hyper3™, turning the adjustment screw clockwise, or in, will lower the output
pressure, decreasing the velocity. Turning the adjustment screw counterclockwise, or out, will
raise the output pressure, increasing the velocity.
CHANGING THE BATTERY
The battery is housed on the right side of the grip frame. To access the battery, remove the three
screws holding the right side grip panel down. Use a
out of the frame. When inserting a new battery notice the + and - marks on the board. The
positive lead of the 9V battery goes to the left and the negative lead to the right. Inserting the
battery backwards does not damage the board but it will not function.
• A low battery will not be able to power both the ACE eye and the trigger
switch, causing ACE eye failure.
• If the battery is low, it may not be able to power the solenoid correctly.
This will affect the 2010 DM Series’s velocity, causing it to become inconsistent
and/or low.

TURNING THE 2010 DM SERIES ON AND OFF
To turn on the 2010 DM Series, press and hold the power
button for 3 seconds (see figure 1) until the LED’s turn blue.
The blue light indicates board boot up. After the boot up
sequence, the LED’s will turn either RED (no ball) or GREEN
(ball ready to fire). To turn the 2010 DM Series off, press and
hold the power button until the LED’s turn off.
NOTE: The 2010 DM Series automatically switches off after
10 minutes of non-use.
FIRING THE 2010 DM SERIES
As soon as the marker is turned on and the LED’s turn from
blue to either red or green, the 2010 DM Series is ready to
fire. If there is no ball and the LED’s are RED, you need to
hold the trigger for 1 second to force the 2010 DM Series
to fire once. If there is a paintball inside the breech and the
LED is green, just press the trigger to fire the marker.
LED LIGHT INDICATOR
The 2010 DM Series uses two super bright LED’s mounted
on the circuit board inside the grip frame. These two lights
are used to provide information to the user about the 2010
DM Series. They will always show the same information and
it does not matter which LED you look at. One is mounted
behind the 2010 DM Series logo on the left side of the grip
panels. The other one can be seen by looking at the top left
side of the grip frame while holding the 2010 DM Series in
the position you would while playing a game.
When you turn on the marker in normal operation mode with the power button, the light colors
mean the following:
Blue: - Boot sequence
Red: - Breech is clear, no ball detected inside the 2010 DM Series (eye is on)
Green: - Ball in breech, ready to fire (eye on)
Blinking Red: - Eye is turned off
Blinking Green: - Eye failure, eye is blocked or dirty (see 2010 DM Series Eye, page 26)
Blinking Blue: - Indicates a low battery, battery should be changed as soon as possible
To turn the eyes off, press and hold the lower button until the light begins flashing red.
To turn the eyes back on, hold the lower button until the LED turns either red or green.
NOTE: With the eye off the 2010 DM Series will shoot the rate of fire value set in
Configuration Mode.
When servicing your marker:
• Make sure a barrel sock is fitted to the 2010 DM Series.
• Make sure your hopper is removed from the 2010 DM Series.
• Make sure there are no paintballs in the breech of the 2010 DM Series.
• Always remove the first stage regulator and relieve all residual gas pressure from the
2010 DM Series before disassembly.
• The 2010 DM Series can hold a small residual charge of gas, typically 2 shots, with the
first stage regulator removed. Always discharge the marker in a safe direction to
relieve this residual gas pressure.

Anti Bolt Stick - When ABS is activated, the dwell is increased after
15 seconds of non-use for the next shot fired. This helps to prevent
bolt-stick, but may result in higher velocity for the first shot.
• The 2010 DM Series is not water resistant. Excess moisture can cause damage to
electronic parts.
• Keep the board and all electrical components clean of dirt, paint and moisture.
• To clean the board, use canned air. If a more aggressive cleaning method is needed,
lightly scrub the components with a soft, dry brush. Heavy scrubbing will damage
the board.
BOARD SETTINGS AND CONFIGURATION MODE
There are five settings you can alter on the 2010 DM Series
board with the DIP switches inside the grip frame (see figure 1):
ABS Anti Bolt Stick.
Trigger Sensitivity This setting adjusts the delay
between two trigger pulls.
Dwell This is the time the solenoid is
activated for.
Rate Of Fire Rate Of Fire when the eye is
deactivated.
Firing Mode This is the firing mode the 2010
DM Series uses.
There are two DIP switches mounted on the board of the
2010 DM Series (See figure 1). The first one is used for
the ABS setting and the second one is used to access the
configuration mode which changes the other four settings.
8
ABS ON
(DEFAULT)
ABS OFF
Configuration Mode - The following settings can only be
modified in configuration mode. To activate the configuration
mode, turn your marker off and set DIP switch 2 to the ON
position. Next, turn your marker on. The LED’s cycle through
all colors for one second to indicate that you have entered
the configuration mode.
To cycle through different settings, pull and release the trigger. Configuration mode has
4 settings that can be changed.
Green - Trigger Sensitivity Values 1 - 20 (factory default 3)
Trigger sensitivity is the amount of time that the trigger has to be
released before the next trigger pull is allowed. In some situations
with too low of a value, the 2010 DM Series can register more trigger
pulls than what was actually pulled. This can cause the 2010 DM
Series to shoot full auto, even in semi-automatic mode. To fix this,
adjust trigger sensitivity setting higher.
Red - Dwell Values 1 - 30 (factory default 18)
Dwell is the amount of time that the solenoid will be activated.
Follow these steps for the best way to set your dwell:
• Remove loader and any paintballs from the 2010 DM Series marker.
• With the dwell set at 10, start increasing the value until the marker
begins to fire.
• When you reach the setting where the marker begins to fire, get
some paint and a loader and go to a chronograph.
• Increase the dwell until you see no increase in the velocity.
This is the optimal dwell setting to be used.

TO CHANGE A VALUE OF A SETTING
1. While in the configuration mode, choose the color you wish to change by pulling the trigger.
2. When the LED indicates the color you wish to change, pull and hold the trigger until the LED
starts to flash.
3. The LED will flash as many times as the previous setting was and it will then turn off. Now pull
the trigger as many times as you wish the new setting to be.
4. When done, the LED will cycle through all the colors again to indicate setting was saved and
turn back to green. You can now change another setting or quit the configuration mode.
5. To exit configuration mode, set DIP 2 to the OFF position.
BATTERY
Standard 9V batteries will last for about 40,000 shots. Please be
aware that there are substantial differences in performance between
different brands of batteries. Use of high quality alkaline or lithium
ion batteries is recommended for maximum battery life. If you plan
not to use your marker for a long period of time (a month), it is
recommended that you remove the battery from the marker.
An intermittent blinking blue light indicates a low battery. A low
battery can cause the marker to malfunction.
• A low battery will not be able to power both the ACE eye and the trigger switch,
causing ACE eye failure.
• If the battery is low, it may not be able to power the solenoid correctly. This will
affect the 2010 DM Series’s velocity, causing it to become inconsistent and/or low.

The 2010 DM Series comes equipped with an On/Off
Airport attached to the bottom of the frame. To turn on
the gas supply, twist the ON/OFF knob clockwise, all
the way in. To turn off the gas supply, twist the ON/OFF
knob counterclockwise, all the way out. As you turn the
knob out, the residual gas between the Hyper3™ and the
ON/OFF airport is vented. To remove the airport from
the UL frame see page 13.
CAM LEVER FEED NECK
The Cam lever feed neck is adjustable to fit any
standard loader. To adjust the cam locking system turn
the thumb adjustment knob clockwise to tighten, or
counterclockwise to loosen. Press the cam lever down
against the feed collar to secure the loader in the feed
neck. To loosen the locking system and remove the
loader, lift the cam lever away from the feed collar.
Take care not to over tighten the cam locking system.
The cam lever should not be difficult to lower into the
locked position.
NOTE: Even with the air supply removed the marker may have
gas inside. Be sure to vent this gas. Make sure there are no paintballs in the breech and dry fire the marker in a safe direction.
REMOVING ULTRALITE FRAME FROM THE 2010 DM SERIES
If there is ever need to remove the Ultralite frame from the 2010 DM Series make sure to follow
these steps.
• Remove three grip panel screws with a
• Disconnect the solenoid wire and the eye wire from their sockets by gently pulling them out.
• Using a
• Finally, turn out the back frame screw and slide the frame back and down until it comes off
the 2010 DM Series.
To connect the frame follow above steps in reverse order.
INTEGRATED LOCKING DOVETAIL FEATURE
The Ultralite frame comes equipped with an integrated locking dovetail. There is a horizontal
locking screw located on the bottom right side of the Ultralite frame. It can be accessed with a
1
⁄8” Allen wrench through a hole in the grip panel. To unlock a part attached to the dovetail of the
frame, turn the locking screw counterclockwise one full turn and slide part off the rail. To attach a
part to the rail, slide the part on and turn the locking screw clockwise until part is firmly locked in
place.
NOTE: Be sure that the frame and trigger assembly are kept clean. If there is excess dirt or
paint build up around the trigger, the trigger will no longer move freely. In addition, paint and
dirt can cause the microswitch to not function properly or fail. Be sure you do not pinch the
wires between the frame and the body when reattaching the frame and body.

TRIGGER ADJUSTMENT
TRIGGER ADJUSTMENT
ADJUSTING YOUR TRIGGER
The trigger’s forward and over travel, spring tension, and
reach are fully adjustable so that you can fine-tune the
trigger to your exact liking. You do not need to remove
the frame or grip from the gun in order to adjust the
trigger pull.
There are two adjustment screws located on the right
side of the Ultralite frame and one adjustment screw
behind the trigger. The two screws on the side of the
frame adjust the travel of the trigger.
The one located behind the trigger is used to change the
tension of the trigger spring.

• The screw toward the front of the trigger (1) controls the forward travel. Screwing it in will
shorten the trigger’s length of pull.
NOTE: If this screw is adjusted too far, the switch will be held down at all times and the marker
will not fire.
• The screw toward the rear of the trigger (2) controls the over travel. By turning this screw you
can adjust how far the trigger will travel after it reaches the firing point.
NOTE: If this screw is adjusted too far, the trigger will not be allowed to travel far enough to
depress the switch and fire the marker.
TO ADJUST SPRING TENSION (SEE FIGURE 1)

ULTRALITE REACH TRIGGER
The 2010 DM Series has a new external reach
adjustment for the Ultralite trigger.
This adjustment changes the angle that the
trigger sits without the need to take off the
gripframe or Sticky3 Grip.
TO ADJUST TRIGGER REACH
(SEE FIGURES 1 AND 2)
To adjust, simply loosen the two 6-32 screws
(4) using a 1/16” Allen wrench. You do not
have to remove the screws from the trigger.
Now the front of the trigger (shown in
green) should rotate freely while the back of
the trigger (shown in blue) remains relatively
stationary. When the desired reach angle has
been achieved, tighten the two 6-32 screws
snugly. Be careful not to over tighten and
strip the Allen wrench or screws.

ASSEMBLY AND MAINTENANCE

FUSE™ BOLT OPERATION
To achieve top performance from
your 2010 DM Series, it is important to
understand the basic operation of the
2010 DM Series’s patented FUSE™ bolt
system.
This design consists of three sleeves
threaded together to capture the only
moving part of the system, the bolt.
The FUSE™ Bolt has five components:
1 Cylinder
2 Bolt Sail
3 Bolt
4 Top Hat
5 Rear Cap
Air is supplied to the bolt at two points. A high-pressure supply of air is routed to the back of the
bolt into the supply chamber. This air source is responsible for propelling the ball. Low-pressure
air is supplied from the LPR to the solenoid. From the solenoid, the air is routed through two
small holes to the section of the bolt referred to as the cylinder.
When the 2010 DM Series is aired up, air is transferred by the solenoid to the front of the cylinder.
This air pushes against the bolt sail and the bolt is held in the back position.
2
3
4
5
Forward Position
BaCK Position
16
When the bolt is held back, the 014 O-ring in
the top hat seals around the bolt and contains
the air in the supply chamber. When the
marker is fired, the microswitch is pressed,
telling the solenoid to switch the flow of air
from the front of the cylinder to the rear of
the cylinder. Air that enters the rear of the
cylinder will push on the bolt sail, moving
the bolt forward. The air in the front of the
cylinder is vented.
As the bolt moves forward, the tapered stem
passes through the top hat. Once the bolt
stem can no longer seal against the 014
O-ring, the air contained in the supply chamber
is released. The air passes through the venturi
ports in the bolt and out the front of the bolt to propel the ball. When the bolt is in the forward
position, the inside bolt stem O-ring prevents the flow of air from continuously flowing through the
marker when the bolt is forward. This helps the marker shoot much more efficiently.
NOTE: LOW OR ERRATIC VELOCITY MAY BE DUE TO A LOW BATTERY NOT SUPPLYING
AMPLE ELECTRICAL CURRENT TO THE SOLENOID. IN THIS CASE, CHANGE THE BATTERY.
When servicing your marker:
• Make sure your hopper is removed from the 2010 DM Series.
• Make sure there are no paintballs in the breach of the 2010 DM Series.
• Always remove the air supply and relieve all gas pressure in the 2010 DM Series before
disassembly.
• When using the marker in temperatures below 50° Fahrenheit it may be necessary to
lube the FUSE™ bolt more frequently.

ASSEMBLY AND MAINTENANCE
BOLT MAINTENANCE
Regular 2010 DM Series Fuse™ bolt maintenance is vital to the performance of the 2010 DM
Series. If the Fuse™ bolt is not kept well-greased and the O-rings in good shape, the performance
of the 2010 DM Series will be greatly hindered.
1
To remove the bolt, you will need a
marker. It only takes one and one half revolutions to unscrew the bolt so that it can be pulled
out. After the bolt has been cleaned and greased and is ready to be inserted into the body, be
sure all bolt sleeve components are screwed together snugly. Slowly push the bolt into the body.
Take care not to cut or nick the O-rings as they pass the threads.
GREASE THE 2010 DM SERIES FUSE™ BOLT EVERY 10-15 THOUSAND SHOTS AND CHECK
CONDITION OF O-RINGS. BE SURE THE FUSE BOLT CAN MOVE BACK AND FORTH WITHOUT
EXCESSIVE FORCE.
BEFORE INSTALLING THE BOLT INTO THE MARKER, BE SURE ALL BOLT SLEEVE
COMPONENTS ARE SCREWED TOGETHER SNUGLY.
If you do not grease the bolt, you will run the risk of damaging O-rings. This will create excessive
friction and drag on the bolt, ultimately resulting in breaking the bolt. When greasing the 2010
DM Series Fuse™ bolt, pay special attention to all O-rings that are on the bolt and that ride on

LPR (LOW PRESSURE REGULATOR)
ADJUSTMENTS AND MAINTENANCE
LPR ASSEMBLY, CLEANING, TESTING AND CHANGING SEALS
The Low-Pressure Regulator (LPR) is located at the back of the 2010 DM
Series under the bolt (see page 23). The function of the LPR is to
lower the air pressure supplied to the marker by the in-line
before it reaches the solenoid. This pressure is
used to move the bolt forward and back. The
factory setting is 75 PSI. You can
fine tune your 2010 DM Series to
its minimum cycle pressure. This
will reduce the amount of force of
the bolt hitting the ball (reducing
ball breaks) and help with
efficiency. Too low of pressure will
cause the bolt to not fully cycle, move
sluggishly or not at all. If you experience dramatic
shoot down during rapid fire, the LPR may be adjusted
too low. Too high of pressure will cause excess kick, potentially
increase ball breakage, and cause fatigue on the bolt components.
It is important to keep the seat and piston face clean of all dirt and debris. Clean the seat and
piston face and grease the retainer O-ring every six months or 60,000 shots.
20
The LPR has five components and six seals
1 Piston O-ring (012 BN70) 6 Body internal O-ring (007 UR90)
2 Piston 7 Seat (mounted in the seat retainer)
3 Shim stack 8 Seat retainer O-ring (010 BN70)
4 LPR Body 9 Seat retainer (functions as an adjustment screw also)
5 Body O-rings (2 pcs, 012 BN70)
The only user-serviceable part in the LPR is the seat retainer (see page 22). This seal needs to be
changed in the unlikely case the LPR is allowing gas through the regulator, increasing pressure
sent to the solenoid.

When servicing your marker:
• Make sure your hopper is removed from the 2010 DM Series.
• Make sure there are no paintballs in the breach of the 2010 DM Series.
• Always remove the air supply and relieve all gas pressure in the 2010 DM Series before
disassembly.
• It is recommended for the user to remove the LPR from the body and disassemble it.

CHANGING THE SEAT RETAINER
1 Unscrew the LPR cap from the
back of the 2010 DM Series with a
Allen wrench.
2 Unscrew and remove the brass
LPR seat assembly using a
wrench.
3 Use a dental pick or sharp object
to remove the old seat from the

one. Use a flat object to press it into
place.
4 Lube the #010 O-ring and screw
the seat retainer assembly back into
the LPR assembly.
5 Screw the LPR back cover back
into the 2010 DM Series.
If the user needs to replace the whole LPR assembly, follow these instructions:
1 Take the frame off of the marker (see page 13 for removal instructions).
2 Unscrew the LPR set screw from the underside of the body using a

The LPR pressure can be set
quite accurately even without
an LPR test tool. While the
2010 DM Series is degassed,
screw the brass seat retainer
clockwise with a
wrench until slight resistance
is felt.
Applying excessive torque to
the seat retainer will damage
the LPR seat.
The LPR is now set to
approximately 10 psi. Now
turning out the retainer 180
degrees counterclockwise
will increase the pressure
approximately 5 psi.
For example, turning the
retainer 3 to 5 complete turns
out will set the pressure to
approximately 65-75 psi. Use
a chronograph to fine-tune the
pressure to where the 2010 DM
Series is consistent.

USAGE
Carefully connect the ¼” macroline from the airport fitting into the Hyper3™ elbow fitting.
The macroline should be cut straight with a sharp knife to prevent leaks.
ADJUSTMENTS
The Hyper3™ regulator is adjusted in the same manner as the LPR (outlined on page 23). With the
seat retainer screwed completely in the Hyper3™ will be set to 0 psi. Each turn counterclockwise
will increase the pressure by approximately 25 psi. The stock setting is 145 psi, which should result
in the 2010 DM Series shooting velocities of about 285fps.
MAINTENANCE
The Hyper3™ regulator requires little maintenance from regular use. The seat should be replaced
every 6 months or 60,000 shots. Shooting the 2010 DM Series a few times between each small
adjustment to the regulator, will lengthen the life of the seat. Also, O-rings and the seat may wear
rapidly if excessive dirt or sand is allowed into the regulator, so the Hyper3™ should be kept clean.

HYPER3™ REGULATOR DIS-ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
The rubber sleeve on the outside of the Hyper3™ does not need to be removed to disassemble
the seat assembly, but may make the process easier. Begin by inserting a
into the topcap and a
the Hyper3™. If the topcap begins to unscrew, try tightening the regulator back together and
unscrewing again. Sometimes it is necessary to use a vice to hold the Hyper3™ body to remove
the bottom cap. The brass seat retainer and swivel can now be removed from the regulator. If the
swivel is stuck, the elbow fitting may need to be removed.
To change the seat, remove the seat retainer from the regulator body. Use a dental pick or sharp
object to remove the old seat from the retainer and replace it with a new one. Use a flat object to
press it into place.
Any further disassembly should be performed by a trained tech. If you have any questions please
call the DYE tech line.
REASSEMBLY
Grease the #010 O-ring on the seat retainer and the two #013 O-rings on the Hyper3™ body.
Insert the seat retainer being careful to not screw it in too tightly. Slide the swivel gently back
onto the body and screw on the bottom cap. If the elbow fitting was removed, use thread sealant
and snugly screw it back into the swivel making sure that the swivel can rotate freely.

Always discharge the marker in a safe direction to relieve this residual gas pressure.
• Improper stacking of shims will cause failure of the regulator and possible damage
to the 2010 DM Series.
• Excessive dirt and debris can affect the Hyper3™’s performance and increase the
need for service.

ANTI CHOP EYES/ BALL DETENTS
MAINTENANCE AND CHANGING
ANTI CHOP EYES/ BALL DETENTS
MAINTENANCE AND CHANGING
ANTI CHOP EYES
The Anti Chop Eye (ACE) system will prevent the 2010 DM Series from chopping paint by not
allowing the marker to fire until a ball is fully seated in front of the bolt. The eyes use a light beam
across the breech. On one side there is a transmitter, and on the opposite side a receiver. In order
for the marker to fire with the eyes turned on, the signal between the two eyes must be broken.
After every shot, before the next ball drops in the breech, the eye transmitter and receiver must see
each other. If there is a malfunction, the LED’s on the board will start blinking green. This means
that the receiver and the emitter do not see each other. If this is the case, there are normally two
reasons. Either there is dirt, paint or grease blocking the beam, or the battery is so low there is not
enough power to create a strong enough light beam.
NOTE: IF THE BATTERY IS LOW, THE MARKER MAY ACT AS IF THE EYES ARE DIRTY OR NOT
FIRE AT ALL. IN THIS CASE, REPLACE THE BATTERY.
SELF CLEANING EYE FEATURE
The 2010 DM Series is equipped with a self cleaning eye feature. There is a clear polycarbonate
sleeve mounted inside the breech of the gun covering the eyes. When the bolt tip O-ring passes
through the eye pipe, it sweeps off any dirt, grease or paint that could be blocking the eyes.
Normally it is enough to just fire the 2010 DM Series to clean anything blocking the eyes. If this does
not clear the blockage use a swab to clean the inside of the breech.
For a more thorough cleaning, pull the eye pipe with the ball detents out the front of the breech.
With the eye pipe out use a swab to clean the breech. This should be enough to clean the eye
system. If the system needs further cleaning, pull out the eye carrier and eye wires through the feed
neck. To prevent damaging the eye wires, it is best to remove the frame and disconnect the eye
wires from the board. Use a soft rag and q-tips to clean off any built up paint or grease.
When re-assembling the eye guard system, work backwards from disassembly. The eye pipe is
keyed into the breech and can only go in one way.
26
CHANGING BALL DETENTS
The ball detent system is clipped to the outside of the eye pipe. The ball detent system needs
little or no maintenance. The detents should easily flex out of the way with little force, such as a
paintball moving past. If you are
experiencing double feeding or
chopping, check the condition of
your ball detents with your finger
to make sure they are not broken,
stuck in the up or down position,
and that they move in and out
of the breech freely. If excessive
broken paint or dirt has jammed
your ball detents, remove the
eye pipe/detent system from the
front of the 2010 DM Series and
unclip the detents for a thorough
cleaning. Reinstall the detents,
and eye pipe after you have
sufficiently cleaned the detents
and breech.
Be careful not to over-flex the
detents when handling them.
Excessive flexing could break or
damage the detents.
NOTE: TAKE CARE WHEN REPLACING THE EYE PIPE. BE CAREFUL THAT THE DETENT
CLIP IS FULLY SEATED ONTO THE EYE PIPE

TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
AIR LEAKS
AIR LEAKING FROM THE BACK OF AIRPORT
• Check the O-ring on the Air system. If needed
change the O-ring and try again. The O-ring
normally used is #015 but some manufacturers
might use a different size. Consult the manual of
the air system you are using.
AIR LEAKING FROM THE SIDE OF AIRPORT
• Check that the hose connector is tight. Remove
the hose from the connector by pushing towards
the connector and pull out hose.
Use a crescent wrench to tighten the fitting.
If needed remove and apply thread sealant to the
thread and re-tighten. If unsure consult expert
advice.
• Check that the end of the hose is cut straight and
is not worn out. If needed cut a small piece off the
hose with a razor blade and re-insert hose into the
fitting. Make sure hose goes all the way to the end.
AIR LEAKING FROM THE FRONT OF AIRPORT
• Replace the #006 O-ring located inside the airport.
This can be disassembled using a
wrench and a
7
⁄16” socket.
AIR LEAKING FROM THE HYPER3™
REGULATOR
• First locate the position of the leak.
3
⁄16” Allen
• For dis-assembly instructions consult the technical
section under Hyper3™ regulator.
• If the leak is coming from the bottom of the
regulator you will need to dis-assemble the
regulator and change the #010 O-ring and the
seat on the brass seat retainer mounted inside the
Hyper3™ regulator.
• If the leak is coming from the swivel piece where
the hose connector mounts you will need to
change the two #013 O-rings under the swivel
piece or tighten the hose connector.
• If the leak comes from the small hole in the middle
of the regulator there are two possible O-rings
causing the problem, the #015 O-ring on
the piston and the #007 urethane O-ring inside
the body of the regulator. These O-rings should be
replaced by a trained Tech.
• If the leak is from the top of the regulator, change
the #011 O-ring on the outside of the cap.
AIR LEAKING FROM THE ASA
• Change the #011 O-ring on the top cap of the
Hyper3™ and apply a small amount of lube to the
O-ring.
AIR LEAKING BETWEEN BODY AND FRAME
• Leak between the body and the frame can be
caused by a couple of things.
• First pull out the Bolt kit and change the #015 sail
O-ring and the rear #020 O-ring on the outside of
the cylinder, and the #020 O-ring on the outside
of the top hat.
28
• Check to see if the LPR is leaking. You may need
to replace the #010 O-ring on the brass reg
adjuster, or replace the lower #012 O-ring on the
LPR body. (See page #21).
• The LPR may be supplying the solenoid with too
much pressure. Make sure the LPR and the
Hyper3™ are set correctly.
• Gas up the 2010 DM Series without the frame
attached and try to locate the exact point of
leakage. If leak is coming from one of the blocked
holes remove the screw, apply some thread sealant
and re-attach screw to the body. If the solenoid is
leaking, remove the solenoid by unscrewing the
two screws mounting it down. Apply some lube to
the gasket underneath the solenoid and
re-assemble making sure that the solenoid is well
tightened into the body and that the eye wire is
not pinched underneath the solenoid.
AIR LEAKING FROM BACK OF THE 2010 DM
SERIES
• Check that the bolt kit is tightened all the way into
the 2010 DM Series. If the bolt kit is loose, it will
start to leak.
• If above does not solve the leak, remove the bolt
kit and change the #020 O-ring on the rear cap.
Also change the two #011 O-rings located in the
stem of the bolt. Lube well and re-insert the bolt
kit into the 2010 DM Series. Check bolt kit break
down picture on page 19 for O-ring locations.
• Last, check that the gas passage blocking screws
located on the sides of the 2010 DM Series under
W W W . D Y E P A I N T B A L L . C O MW W W . D Y E P A I N T B A L L . C O M
the bolt are not leaking. If the leak is coming from
these hole, remove screws and apply thread
sealant to them.
Make sure to tighten the screw well and wait for
sealant to dry before re-gassing marker.
AIR LEAKING FROM FRONT OF THE 2010
DM SERIES
• Remove the Bolt kit from the marker and change
the #017 O-ring located inside of the cylinder and
the #014 O-ring located inside the top hat. Lube
well and re-assemble.
• If above doesn’t help try changing the front #020
O-ring located outside of the cylinder. Lube well
before re-inserting bolt kit.
PROBLEMS WITH ELECTRONICS
2010 DM SERIES WON’T TURN ON
• Make sure battery is new and well charged.
• Make sure there is no dirt or debris blocking the
button from being pressed.
• Make sure the buttons are able to activate the
switches on the board.
2010 DM SERIES WILL TURN ON / OFF BY
ITSELF OR THE EYES WILL TURN ON / OFF
BY THEMSELVES
• Both of these problems are caused because the
button(s) are pressed all the time.
• Remove board from the frame by removing the
grip panel on the left hand side, disconnecting the
cables and pulling the board out.
29
Page 17
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
Carefully remove the two buttons and clean them
well.
• Re-assemble and test. If problems persist, contact
authorized service center for board replacement.
MARKER SHOOTING SLOW WHEN EYE IS ON
AND BLINKING GREEN
• The eyes are not working correctly. Clean the eyes.
You’ll know that they are clean if the LED turns red
when there is nothing inside the breech of the
2010 DM Series.
• Make sure the eye wires are not broken or pinched.
• The battery may be low. In this case, the battery
should be changed as soon as possible.
• If nothing above helps contact a store or DYE
Precision for eye replacement.
SOLENOID WILL NOT ACTIVATE / TRIGGER
NOT WORKING
• Check that the trigger adjustment is not set so that
the microswitch cannot activate. You should hear a
small click when pulling the trigger.
• If the 2010 DM Series fires once when turned on
but not after that, your trigger is set so that the
microswitch is always activated. Re-adjust the
trigger.
• Change the battery if not positive about it’s
charge.
• Check that the solenoid cable is attached to the
board and to the correct connector (solenoid
should be attached to the two prong connector).
TRIGGER BOUNCE / 2010 DM SERIES
SHOOTING MORE THAN ONE BALL PER
PULL IN SEMI- AUTOMATIC MODE
• Raise the trigger sensitivity level in the
configuration mode.
• Check that the trigger is not adjusted too short.
• Make sure there is a trigger spring inside the frame.
ERRATIC VELOCITY / 2010 DM
SERIES WON’T FIRE
2010 DM SERIES FIRES BUT BALLS ARE
DROPPING OFF OR NOT EVEN COMING OUT
OF THE BARREL
• Make sure the battery is good.
• Raise the dwell to factory level (18).
• Make sure bolt is well lubed and moves well. If
there is too much friction in the bolt it will cause
the 2010 DM Series to shoot down. Replace
O-rings causing this excess friction.
• Make sure air system is screwed in all the way.
FIRST SHOT IS TOO HIGH
• Change the seat inside the Hyper3™ Regulator.
For dis-assembly instructions consult page 25 in
the technical section.
• Check that the #014 O-ring on the inside of the
top hat is in place and in good condition.
• Try turning off the ABS feature by turning DIP #1
to the OFF position.
30
VELOCITY IS NOT CONSISTENT
• Make sure the paintballs you are using fit the barrel
good and are consistent in size. The stock barrel
with the 2010 DM Series is .688 size. You should be
able to blow the paintball through the barrel but
they should not roll through the barrel on their own.
• Remove the bolt kit and re-lube it. Change any
O-rings causing a lot of friction. Make sure #014
O-ring in bolt tip is in place and in good condition.
• Raise the dwell.
• Change the battery.
• Check that the Hyper3™ regulator is working
correctly and that the pressure is consistent.
A separate regulator testing tool is available for
this. If needed, dis-assemble and change worn out
O-rings and the regulator seat in the Hyper3™
regulator.
• Check that the LPR pressure is not set too low.
See page 23 for instructions on how to set your
LPR pressure.
• Replace the seat in LPR (see instructions on
page 22).
OTHER CATEGORIES
DOUBLE FEEDING
• If more than one ball is feeding at a time into the
breech of your 2010 DM Series, check to see if the
ball detents are stuck behind the eye pipe.
To make sure your ball detents and eye pipe are
properly assembled see pages 26 and 27.
W W W . D Y E P A I N T B A L L . C O MW W W . D Y E P A I N T B A L L . C O M
• Make sure the ball detents are not excessively worn.
BREAKING PAINT
• Make sure you use high quality paintballs and that
they are stored according to the manufacturers
instructions.
• Check that #14 O-ring on bolt tip is in place and in
good condition.
• Make sure your loader is working good and that
the rate of fire is not set higher than the maximum
feed rate of the loader.
• Check that the barrel you are using is not too tight
for the paintballs you are using.
• Make sure the ball detent system is working
properly. See pages 26 and 27.
