Using a 5/64-inch Allen wrench,
remove the two screws from
the left side of the rubber grip,
and lift the panel open. Attach
a fresh 9-volt alkaline battery
to the battery clip. Position the
battery in the grip frame, tucking
the battery wires into the space
above the battery. Close the grip
and reinstall the screws.

Screw the included barrel
into the Shocker NXT. Put
the supplied barrel blocker
over the end of the barrel,
securing its cord as far
back on the Shocker NXT
body as possible, and
cinching it tight.
Gently gas up the Shocker NXT
by slowly turning on the air
system or ASA’s on/off valve,
or slowly screwing the CO2 or
compressed air system into
the ASA.
A gentle rise in pressure is
important, as a sudden blast
may reduce the service life of
the Shocker NXT’s internals.
Have your compressed air
(HPA) or CO2 tank lled by
a person who is properly
trained to do so. If using an
HPA system with an on/off
valve, such as the Max-Flo
or Max-Flo Micro, make sure
it is in the OFF position. If
using a screw-in style preset
HPA tank, or CO2 tank, an
ASA with a built in on/off
valve is recommended.
Turn on the Shocker NXT by
holding the power button down
for approximately 1 second. The
Shocker NXT will chirp and the
power button will glow continuously to show that it is on and
in Vision mode. If you need to
disable Vision mode to re gas
without paint, push the button
once again, and the power
button will blink in a double-tap
sequence. Press and hold the
power button for approximately
2 seconds to turn the Shocker
NXT off, this acts as an electronic safety.

Fill the loader with paint and turn it on. While wearing ASTM compliant paintball goggles in an area where all bystanders are protected, remove the barrel blocker and re over a
chronograph to measure the velocity. Using a 3/32-inch Allen wrench, loosen the velocity lock screw near the bottom of the vertical regulator and adjust it with a 5/8-inch open-end
wrench or adjustable wrench. Turn clockwise to increase velocity/pressure, and counter-clockwise to decrease. Take three or four shots after every adjustment to allow the gas
pressure inside the Shocker NXT to stabilize. Adjust until the Shocker NXT is ring consistently within the limits for the eld where you are playing (for safety reasons, never adjust
the Shocker NXT to re at greater than 300 feet per second.) As you adjust, check the Shocker NXT’s pressure gauge to be certain you stay within the Shocker NXT’s operating
limits of 180 to 220 psi. Lock the velocity setting by tightening the velocity lock screw. Depending on what modes of re are allowed at the eld where you are playing (semi-automatic, rebound, etc.) you may need to adjust the Shocker NXT’s Rebound setting.

MAINTENANCE
The Shocker NXT has been designed with
simplicity in mind so that you can concentrate on your game instead of your
marker. It has a minimal number of moving
parts and seals so that you can maintain
the marker with little effort. This DOES
NOT mean that you should neglect your
Shocker NXT. If you take care of it off the
eld, your Shocker NXT will take care of
you on the eld. For best performance,
clean and grease your Shocker NXT frequently. Many players clean their Shockers after every use. While this may seem
a bit extreme, being vigilant in the upkeep
of your Shocker NXT will extend its useful life considerably. Playing in the rain will
not damage your Shocker NXT, but you
should NEVER immerse it in water. If your
Shocker NXT should become waterlogged,
remove the barrel and rubber grips and
allow it to dry out, then follow the disassembly instructions for full cleaning. Clean
out mud and paint with a damp cloth and
alcohol. Grease the Shocker NXT ONLY
with SL33K pneumatic grease. Use high
quality paintballs.

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 Shocker NXT 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 eld netting. To use the Barrel Blocker simply slip it over the end of the
barrel and stretch its cord back over the back of the Shocker NXT’s gripper (the extension on the
back of the body) or the rearmost part over which it can be securely looped. 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 Shocker NXT is on a “live” paintball eld and all
persons involved are wearing proper paintball protection.
HOPPER
The Shocker NXT is a high performance tournament grade paintball marker. The break-beam Vision
system means that you won’t need to worry about chopping paint because your trigger nger is faster
than your hopper. However, if you want to realize the Shocker NXT’s maximum repower potential,
you will need to use a high performance loader. High performance loaders, especially those which
provide force-feeding, will yield the best results with the Shocker NXT.
Depending on the dimensions of your hopper you may choose to remove one or more of the friction
o-rings from inside the Shocker NXT’s feed tube, and or to sand down the hopper’s feed neck. The t
should be snug, but not excessively tight. Always twist hoppers clockwise when installing or removing, to avoid unscrewing the feedtube from the Shocker NXT body.

Never put oil in a compressed air regulator or tank—only
apply manufacturer specied lubricants.
GASES
The Shocker NXT is a low-pressure paintgun. It operates in the range of 180 to 220 psi, which means it
can function well with either compressed air or CO2 as a power source. Proper set up of your gas sys-
tem will help you obtain the best possible performance from your Shocker NXT.
High Pressure Air systems (HPA) are the most common power source used with the Shocker NXT, as
they are unaffected by temperature uctuations and do not have the potential for liquid problems. HPA
systems consist of a tank and a regulator, and are typically rated to store air or nitrogen (while nitrogen
is almost never used in paintball, many players call compressed air “nitro” as air is made of more than
70% nitrogen) at pressures of 3,000 or 4,500 psi.
There are two main types of HPA systems, those on which the output pressure is adjustable, and those
for which their regulator is pre-set to a xed output pressure. HPA systems designed to screw into an
ASA are usually pre-set to deliver either 400 psi (low pressure output) or 800 psi (high pressure output.)
Never use oil or any petroleum based cleaner or lubricant in a compressed air regulator or tank. Ex-
posure to pressurized air increases oil’s ammability and can cause a serious safety hazard. Only use
manufacturer recommended lubricants with compressed air systems, and follow the manufacturer’s
maintenance and operation instructions explicitly. If you are using your Shocker NXT with an adjust-
able output compressed air system, it should be adjusted to deliver about 650 psi to the Shocker NXT’s
vertical regulator. The Shocker’s regulator can accommodate a wide range of input pressures, so exact
adjustment of the air system is not critical, and either low output, or high output pre-set HPA systems
may be used as well.
While CO2 can also be used, it is less popular, since its pressure uctuates with temperature and use.
The important thing to remember when using CO2 is that liquid CO2 must not be delivered to the Shocker NXT. If liquid CO2 were to make it past the Shocker’s regulator, it could expand into gas form inside
the paintgun, raising the pressure levels high enough to cause damage to internal seals or the solenoid
valve. Because liquid CO2 is heavier than CO2 gas, it is easily blocked through the use of gravity.

Two easy ways to properly use CO2 with the Shocker NXT are an anti-siphon tank or a remote line.
Anti-siphon tanks have a J shaped tube professionally installed inside. When the tank is screwed
into a bottom line ASA, like the one that is standard on the Shocker NXT, with their anti-siphon side
up, the tube delivers gas only. The anti-siphon tube works like a diver’s snorkel, repositioning the gas
intake from the valve to the top side of the tank.
A remote hose allows a standard (non-siphoned) CO2 tank to be carried in a player’s pack. Not only
does this make the total weight of the Shocker NXT less, but it also allows the tank to be placed vertically, so that its valve is at the top, while gravity holds the liquid CO2 at the bottom. It is important to
note, that lying down on the eld, or crawling while using a remote can cause liquid CO2 to be fed to
the paintgun as the tank is turned on its side.
Whether using compressed air or CO2 it is important that the Shocker NXT is not exposed to sudden
“pops” of pressure. If using a standard ASA with a screw in HPA system or CO2 tank, screw the tank
in slowly, so that the valve opens slowly, and the pressure rises gently. If using an ASA with a built in
on/off valve, screw in the tank fully, then open the valve slowly. If using an HPA system or CO2 tank
with its own on/off valve, open that valve slowly. Be gentle to the internals of your Shocker NXT and
they will reward you with a long service life.

The Shocker NXT offers multiple options for mounting compressed air systems or CO2 tanks. Located
on the bottom of the grip frame are a pair of industry standard 10-32 screw holes which can be used
to mount a bottom-line ASA, an S-Rail, or drop forward. Additionally, a 1/2-inch dovetail rail is ma-
chined into the bottom of the frame to allow direct mounting of dovetail accessories.
To use the dovetail rail, rst use a 5/64-inch Allen wrench to remove two screws from the Shocker
NXT’s rubber grips, and open one side of the grip. Remove and unplug the 9-volt battery from inside
the grip frame. Look into the forward screw hole on the bottom of the grip. A 10-32 set screw is
included preinstalled in your Shocker NXT. If it has been removed, you may re-install it by screwing
it into the hole from the bottom of the grip frame, head rst. When the set screw is in too far to keep
screwing it in by hand, use a 3/32-inch Allen wrench to screw it in further from the inside of the grip
frame. Screw the set screw in, until its bottom is ush with the dovetail rail. Slide a Max-Flo Micro, or
other accessory onto the rail, and then use your Allen wrench to lock the set screw, securing the accessory. Close up the grips and return their screws into place with the Allen wrench.
When mounting a different gas accessory or drop forward that uses dual mounting screws instead of
the rail, the set screw will need to be removed by a similar process.
