ANS GX-3/GX-4 USER MANUAL GX-4 New Features The GX-4 marker comes with the same quality engineering and style that you’ve come to expect from ANS, plus a load of new features that improve performance, looks, and value.
ANS GX-3/GX-4 USER MANUAL Maintenance
INSTALLATION STEPS:
GX-3 and GX-4 Maintenance Information
1. Identify the four ports on the inline regulator:
GENERAL NOTES •
IMPORTANT: If CO2 is used, it must be an Anti-siphon tank on both the GX-3 and GX-4 Cocker.
Always cock back the marker before installing a propellant tank.
GX Cockers are nitrogen-ready; Nitrogen is the recommended propellant.
The X-2 Inline Regulator needs to be installed on the new marker. (GX-3 only)
GX-4 Marker
New Front-End Pneumatic Kit Front-end pneumatics have been re-engineered for faster Rate of Fire (ROF). •
The Jack Hammer has extra porting that improves gas recharge.
The 3-Way has additional exhaust porting for faster block return.
GX-3 Marker
New Adjustable Drop Forward Assembly The Adjustable Drop Forward with integrated ASA has:
Installation
X-2 Inline Regulator Installation
Quick disconnect on Drop Forward for easy disassembly
2 are labeled for input pressure.
1 is labeled for output pressure.
1 is the burst disc.
2. Installing the inline regulator into the marker body. Screw the regulator into the vertical ASA of the marker body until it stops. Do not torque. 3. Aligning the inline regulator. Unscrew the regulator until one of the pressure input ports faces the rear of the marker and the pressure output port is to one side of the marker. This will allow the micro gauge to be installed without interfering with the trigger guard. The exact position of the pressure output port can vary according to your preference, i.e. the gauge is facing the front and the line set up comes out the side. IMPORTANT: The regulator can be loosened almost 1-1/2 turns and still retain a perfect seal. It may move loosely and will appear to leak but as the system is pressurized the regulator will get ridged. In fact, 90% of the time most regulators are kept slightly loose or “backed off” to allow the input to be in the preferred spot. 4. Plugging the input pressure port. Two pressure input ports are provided so that the location of the gauge can be adjusted to your liking. One pressure input port will be connected to the propellant line and the other will be plugged. •
Locate the 1/8" pipe plug and coat the threads lightly with red 262 Loctite.
Screw the pipe plug into ONE of the input pressure ports on the regulator. To maintain a good seal have the plug go flush with the regulator body.
Lightly coat the threads of the gauge with red 262 Loctite.
Install the micro-gauge into the Output Pressure orifice and tighten snug using a Crescent wrench.
It is recommended that the micro-gauge be used, but it is not essential. If the microgauge is NOT installed, the pressure output port must be plugged as follows: •
Locate a 1/8" pipe plug (supplied) and coat lightly with red 262 Loctite.
Screw the pipe plug into the output pressure port and tighten snug.
6. Installing the propellant feed line. •
Whether you will be using a macro line fitting or nickel-plated connectors, the threads should be coated lightly with red 262 Loctite.
Screw the propellant feed line into the last available open input pressure orifice.
X-2 Inline regulator installation is now complete. Proceed to the Adjustments section for calibration instructions.
Adjustments X-2 Inline Regulator Adjustment On the GX-3, this part is not calibrated from the factory and requires adjustment when installed. Unlike conventional cockers that adjust velocity through the back of the marker, GX series markers require adjustments through the Quick Twist knob on the bottom of the regulator, NOT through the Internal Velocity Gauge (IVG). The IVG should not be adjusted on this marker.
Faster ROF and a new level of style
On the GX-4, the X-2 Inline Regulator comes pre-installed and calibrated so that no adjustment is necessary. For all GX-3 markers, this section explains how to install the X-2 Inline Regulator. GX-3 users will then need to calibrate the part for normal use by following the instructions under the Adjustments section of this manual. The Inline Regulator installs vertically in front of the trigger guard and controls the velocity at which paintballs exit the marker.
Greater gas efficiency with improved N-2 Hammer Kit
YOU’LL NEED:
ADJUSTMENT STEPS:
Red 262 Loctite
1/8" pipe plug (supplied in X-2 Rebuild Kit)
1. Locate the Quick Twist adjuster knob at the bottom of the inline regulator.
Micro pressure gauge (included)
Braided stainless steel propellant feed lines
Convenient on/off twist knob for easy gas tank activation
New Swing Trigger System The improved action Double-Finger Swing Trigger Kit provides:
Packaged Barrel The GX-4 comes complete with a new 14" 2-piece barrel:
5. Installing the micro pressure gauge. The micro-gauge indicates the pressure coming out of the regulator and is useful to determine optimal performance of the marker.
Ported and vented for improved performance
Large Crescent wrench
Matched to the marker for uniform style
3/16 Allen wrench
