QUICK START

01 02 03

Unpack the EnvyTM and its barrel. Screw the barrel into the front of the

marker, hand tight. Take care not to strip the barrel threads or over-

tighten.

Put the supplied barrel

blocker over the end of the

barrel, securing its cord as far

back on the EnvyTM body as

possible, and cinching it tight.

Fill the loader with paintballs. If it is a powered loader, 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 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 EnvyTM 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 EnvyTM to re at greater than 300 feet per second). 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 EnvyTM’s ring mode. See the Electronic Adjustment section

for more information.

Fit a paintball loader into the feedbeck

of the EnvyTM. Use a 7/64-inch allen

wrench to lock the loader in place.

Powered force-feed loaders are

recommended, as the EnvyTM has

little recoil, and can easily outpace an

unpowered or agitating loader.

Gently gas up the EnvyTM by

slowly turning on the air system

or screwing the CO2 or screw-

in style HPA system into the

bottom-line ASA.

A gentle rise in pressure

is important, as a sudden

blast may reduce the service

life of the Envy®’s internal

components.

Turn on the EnvyTM by

pressing the power button

momentarily.

Although the power button

serves as the EnvyTM’s safety

switch to prevent accidental

ring, it should never be relied

upon in place of a barrel blocker

and proper eye protection.

The EnvyTM has been designed with

simplicity in mind so that you can

concentrate on your game instead of your

marker. It has only one major moving part

in its valve system, with a minimal number

of seals. This DOES NOT mean that you

should neglect your EnvyTM. If you take care

of it off the eld, your EnvyTM will take care

of you on the eld. For best performance,

clean and grease your EnvyTM frequently.

Many players disassemble and clean their

EnvyTM after every day of use. While this

may seem a bit extreme, being vigilant in the

upkeep of your EnvyTM will extend its useful

life considerably, and catch any problems

when there is time to correct them before

the next game. Playing in the rain will not

damage your EnvyTM. In fact, the EnvyTM.

has been tested and proven to function

underwater. However, long-term exposure

to moisture can cause rust damage to some

of the EnvyTM’s screws, so if your EnvyTM

should become waterlogged, remove the

barrel, stock 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.

Lubricate the EnvyTM ONLY with GR33SETM

pneumatic grease. Use fresh, high quality

paintballs for best performance.

BARREL BLOCKER IN USE

USE HIGH PERFORMANCE LOADER

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 EnvyTM 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 EnvyTM 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 EnvyTM is on a “live” paintball eld and all persons

involved are wearing proper paintball protection.

The EnvyTM is a high performance tournament grade paintball marker. Its low-force bolt will often prevent

paintballs from being chopped if the hopper is not able to load paintballs as fast as the EnvyTM is

being red. If you want to realize the EnvyTM’s maximum repower potential, especially if it is upgraded

with a circuit board that utilizes an anti-chop eye for higher rates of re, 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 EnvyTM.

The EnvyTM is equipped with a clamping feedneck that allows it to adapt to the small size differences

in hopper neck sizes, yet lock or release quickly. Using a 7/64-inch allen wrench, loosen the clamping

feedneck before installing a hopper. If the hopper is a tight t, a at bladed screwdriver may be used to

further spread the gap in the feedneck clamp, provided the clamp screw has been loosened enough.

The EnvyTM may also be congured so that the hopper is located to the right, left, or directly above the

center of the marker. See the Advanced Maintenance Section of this manual for instructions to change

or reposition the feedneck.

NEVER PUT OIL IN A COMPRESSED AIR REGULATOR OR

TANK - ONLY APPLY MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDED

LUBRICANTS.

GASES

The EnvyTM is a low-pressure paintgun. It operates at approximately 160 psi, which means it is capable of

functioning well with either high-pressure compressed air or CO2 as a power source. Proper set up of your

gas system will help you obtain the best possible performance from your EnvyTM.

Whether using compressed air or CO2 it is important that the EnvyTM is not exposed to sudden “pops”

of pressure. Always turn-on or screw-in a compressed air system or CO2 slowly, so that the valve opens

slowly, and the gas pressure inside the marker is raised smoothly. Be gentle to the internals of your EnvyTM

and they will reward you with a long service life.

High Pressure Air systems (HPA) are the preferred power source used in paintball 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 at pressures of 3,000 or 4,500 psi.

Although pure nitrogen is almost never used in paintball, many players call compressed air “nitro” as air

is made up of more than 70% nitrogen, allowing the two gasses to be used interchangeably in paintball

equipment.

The EnvyTM is congured for use with screw-in style HPA systems. Although HPA systems pre-set to

deliver approximatly 400 psi (low output) will work with the EnvyTM, 800 psi (high output) systems are

preferred, to reduce the risk of gas starvation under rapid re.

Never use oil or any petroleum based cleaner or lubricant in a compressed air regulator or tank. Exposure 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 EnvyTM with an adjustable output compressed air system, it should be set to deliver

about 800 psi. The EnvyTM’s vertical regulator can accommodate a wide range of input pressures, so

exact adjustment of the air system is not critical.

FIG. 3 HPA TANK BEING FILLED

GASES

NOTICE

Due to shipping restrictions, CO2 and HPA tanks are sold empty. They must be lled before they can be

used. Most paintball shops and elds are equipped to ll HPA tanks. Paintball shops, elds, many hardware

stores and sporting goods stores will have the equipment and trained personnel to ll paintball CO2 tanks.

The EnvyTM is factory congured for use with

CO2. Its dwell setting must be changed to obtain

optimum performance with HPA. See the Firing

Modes / Dwell section of this manual to learn how.

NOTICE

Although the EnvyTM can be powered by

compressed air, typical home, garage or industrial

air compressors cannot provide the high pressures

required to ll a paintball HPA tank. Paintball HPA

systems can be relled by paintball elds and

stores which use higher pressure compressors

similar to those used in the SCUBA and reghting

industries.

NOTICE

GOGpaintball.com

CO2 is usually not recommended for electronic paintball markers. This is not the case, however with

the EnvyTM. As long as it is set up properly, the EnvyTM can function extremely well with CO2 as a power

source. In fact, because of its extremely low operating pressure, the EnvyTM has been shown to operate

on CO2 continuously under heavy re conditions where older design blowback mechanical markers fail.

The use of CO2 will not damage the seals in the EnvyTM, freeze or cause damage to its circuit board.

The important thing to remember if using CO2 is that best performance can be achieved when only

gasseous CO2 is fed to the EnvyTM, and liquid CO2 remains in the tank.

Although the relief valve integrated into the EnvyTM’s vertical regulator provides the marker with

protection from pressure spikes, those pressure uctuations can cause poor performance, and

temporary blockage of the EnvyTM’s solenoid valve.

The bottom-line ASA tting on the EnvyTM places the CO2 tank at an angle. When the marker is held

in typical ring positions, gravity will keep the liquid CO2 away from the tank valve, preventing it from

feeding into the marker.

Alternative CO2 arrangements include placing the CO2 tank vertically in a pack, and using a paintball

CO2 remote hose to feed CO2 to the EnvyTM. This arrangement not only prevents liquid CO2 from entering

the marker, but also makes the marker assembly lighter weight.

Anti-siphon CO2 tanks contain a J-shaped tube that draws gaseous CO2 from the top of the tank

when it is in a horizontal position. Anti-siphon tubes must be professionally installed, to ensure that

critical safety checks are performed during valve installation. If using an anti-siphon tank, the EnvyTM’s

stock bottom-line ASA tting should be replaced with an ASA that will place the tank completely hori-

zontal. Anti-siphon CO2 tanks should not be used with remote hoses.

The bottom-line ASA tting on the EnvyTM can be removed by unscrewing the two industry-standard

10-32 mount screws holding it to the grip frame. If replacing the ASA, be sure the model chosen

takes into account the type of gas system being used (horizontal for anti-siphon CO2 tanks, angled for

standard tanks).

OVER TIME BATTERIES MAY LEAK. ALWAYS REMOVE THE

BATTERY FROM THE ENVYTM WHEN STORING FOR FOR MORE

THAN A MONTH.

BATTERY

The EnvyTM is powered by a standard 9-volt alkaline battery. Lower cost “heavy duty” batteries will not

consistently deliver the amperage needed to operate the EnvyTM. Erratic performance, especially drops in

velocity or skipped shots during rapid re can result from a battery that is not delivering full power.

The EnvyTM is also compatible with 9-volt rechargeable batteries. Because specications of batteries

vary widely from brand to brand, use of any rechargeable battery will require testing to determine if it

can power the EnvyTM reliably. Some NiCD “9v” rechargable batteries actually operate at 7.2 volts. These

types of batteries will not work well with the EnvyTM.

Any time the EnvyTM exhibits erratic performance, drops velocity or skips shots while rapid ring, does not

shoot or does not turn on, the rst step in troubleshooting should always be to replace the battery with a

brand-new, name-brand alkaline battery.

To replace the EnvyTM battery, use a 5/64-inch allen wrench to remove the two screws from the left side

of the rubber grip, then open the grip. Remove the old battery, taking care not to bend, kink or strain its

wires. Unsnap the battery from its connector by pulling on the connector, not the wires. Snap in a fresh

battery, then place that in the grip frame, tucking the wires into place, before closing and re-securing the

grip.

Even the best quality paintballs will vary in size from one batch to the next and as weather conditions

change. While your EnvyTM 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 EnvyTM) 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 difcult 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 EnvyTM, must be measured and adjusted to

below the paintball eld’s velocity limit immediately before each day of play (for player safety). If CO2

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 EnvyTM 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 EnvyTM to re at greater than 300 feet per second (91.44 meters per

second).

The length of the EnvyTM trigger pull is fully adjustable. A setscrew in the lower half of the trigger limits

how far back the trigger can be pulled. Turning the screw clockwise with a 0.05-inch allen wrench will

shorten the trigger pull. Turning counter-clockwise will increase it. When setting the rear trigger limit,

it is important that the trigger pull is not set so short that the trigger does not activate the microswitch

on the EnvyTM’s circuit board, or the marker will not be able to re. Similarly, the rear limit screw must

butt up against its stop when the trigger is pulled. If the rear trigger limit is under-adjusted the trigger

will stop not on the screw, but up against the microswitch inside the marker. This situation can cause

damage to the microswitch and or circuit board.

The forward limit of the trigger’s movement is adjusted by a 1/8-inch allen wrench. The forward

trigger adjustment screw is located at the bottom of the trigger guard where it meets the grip

frame. It may be helpful to remove the marker’s rubber grips to provide easier access when making

adjustments. Turning this screw clockwise decreases how far forward the trigger can move, while

turning counterclockwise increases it. If the trigger is not adjusted to swing far enough forward, the

microswitch inside the EnvyTM will not be able to reset, resulting in the marker not ring.

Always check the trigger after making adjustments. Be sure that the trigger switch clicks when the

trigger is pulled, and again when it is released. Also make sure that when the trigger is pulled it is

being stopped by the rear trigger limit screw, not by pressing up against the microswitch inside the

marker.
