VANQUISH QUICKSTART MANUAL Barrel Installation
• Make sure marker is degassed, loader removed, no paintballs in the feed port or breech and the marker is in OFF. • Slide the longer barrel tip into the desired barrel back, turning the barrel tip clockwise until it stops (do not over tighten). • The barrel backs are sized (.682, .685, .688, .691) to match the paintball diameter to get the most efficient usage of your Vanquish marker. • While pointing marker in a safe direction, thread the barrel into the front opening of the marker body. • Turn the barrel clockwise (when looking at the front opening) until it stops (do not over tighten). • Install a barrel blocking device. This can be a barrel bag or other such device that prevents the accidental discharge of a paintball.
Tank Installation
The Empire Vanquish is designed to work with compressed air/nitrogen only. Do not use CO2, as it will damage your marker. The Empire Vanquish utilizes a fully functional regulator at the bottom of the grip frame that doubles as an On/Off ASA (Air Source Adapter) or receiver for a standard threaded preset output compressed air system. If you are using an adjustable output regulator system, the output pressure should be 500-650 psi. PRESSURIZING THE EMPIRE VANQUISH • Flip the regulator’s On/Off ASA lever forward so it’s pointing toward the front of the marker. • Install a compressed air tank, by screwing it in clockwise; making sure it’s fully threaded into the ASA. • Flip the On/Off ASA lever back so it’s flush with the regulator and pointing toward the rear of the marker. The marker will become pressurized. DE-PRESSURIZING THE EMPIRE VANQUISH • Flip the On/Off lever forward and allow the gas to vent from the regulator. • Air may remain within the marker once the regulator is vented. While the barrel blocking device is still installed, turn your Vanquish on, turn the eyes off and pull the trigger a few times to deplete all remaining air. • Read the pressure rating and make sure the pressure reads “LOW”. • Remove your air cylinder by slowly and carefully unscrewing it counterclockwise.
Installing a Loader and Paintballs
The Empire Vanquish uses .68 caliber, water-soluble paintballs, readily available at paintball pro-shops, commercial playing fields, and many sporting goods stores. The paintballs feed from the loader through the neck and into the breech of the marker. The Empire Vanquish comes equipped to accept standard-gravity feed loaders as well as most agitating and force-feed loaders. Open the clamp lever and place the loader neck directly into the marker feed neck. Align the loader in line with the marker so the nose points in the same direction as the barrel. Close the lever, noting that it might be necessary to adjust the feed neck’s clamping screw to get a snug fit on your loader.
Battery Replacement
Confirm that the marker is OFF before changing or installing the battery. The Empire Vanquish requires a single 9-volt battery as the electronic power source. The use of brand-name alkaline batteries is highly recommended. The 9-volt battery is located within the grip and is accessed through the removal of the grip panel by using the 3/32” hex wrench to remove the grip screws.
Vanquish Power On/Off
1. Turn Marker ON - Press and hold the CENTER of the Directional Pad (the black button/joy stick located under the screen) until the screen illuminates to turn the board/marker ON. The Boot Up Splash Screen will display for 3 seconds. You are now in LIVE and the marker is ready to fire. 2. Turn Marker OFF - Press and hold CENTER on Directional Pad (D-pad) to enter the MAIN Menu, release D-pad and then press CENTER on D-Pad when the display reads OFF to turn board off. 3. Automatic Off feature - The Empire Vanquish also has an automatic off feature. If you accidentally leave your marker powered up, it will shut itself off after approximately 10 minutes of inactivity.
Pressure and Velocity Adjustment
Turn on the Vanquish and enter the LIVE mode on the display. Press and hold the D-pad to the Left or Right for 1 second at a time to change displayed information. Repeat this process until the display cycles to pressure reading. This visual indicator will help determine the correct pressure/velocity you desire. The velocity can be adjusted by adjusting the pressure. Locate the Pressure Adjustment Screw and using the 3/32” Hex wrench, turn the screw clockwise (inward) to increase the pressure (and velocity). Turn the screw counter-clockwise to decrease the pressure. DO NOT EXCEEED 210 PSI.
Firing the Empire Vanquish
• Place the empty loader onto the marker. Be sure that it is securely mounted in place • Install and apply the compressed gas, pressurizing the marker • Put the paintballs into the loader • Remove the barrel plug, sock or barrel-blocking device • Aim the Vanquish in a safe direction. • Turn the Vanquish ON: Press and hold the CENTER of the D-Pad to turn board/marker ON • Aim the Vanquish at the target • Pull the trigger with a smooth squeezing motion
Caution: When the game you are playing is over, remember to place the barrel blocking device onto your barrel and turn the marker off.
ACTIVATION DU CHARGEUR Installation du canon
• Assurez-vous que le marqueur est dépressurisé, chargeur retiré, et qu’aucune bille de peinture ne se trouve dans le port d’alimentation ou la chambre, et que le marqueur est en “mode de sécurité”. • Faites glisser l'extrémité de canon la plus longue dans l'embase de canon désrirée en la tournant dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre jusqu'à ce qu'elle se bloque (ne serrez pas trop fort). • Les dimensions des embases de canon (.682, .685, .688, .691) s'adaptent précisément aux diamètres de paintball afin d'optimiser l'usage de votre marqueur Vanquish. • Tout en pointant le marqueur dans une direction sûre, placez l’extrémité filetée du canon dans l’orifice frontal de la carcasse du marqueur. • Faites pivoter le canon dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre jusqu’à ce qu’il s’arrête (ne…
