For questions concerning your Intimidator manual please call (925) 625-7929.
THEORY OF OPERATION
The Intimidator marker is a solenoid controlled open-bolt design, very similar to the
popular open-bolt blowback design found in the Spyder. The primary difference is that
instead of a blowback re-cocking on a spring-loaded striker, the bolt is locked into a dual
pressurized machined slider. The back of the chamber is pressurized to move the bolt
forward, and the front is pressurized to move the bolt backward. This allows for very
low cycling pressure, as well as much less cocking recoil. An electronic 4-way valve
controls this slider.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The marker includes dual regulators. Both regulators are mounted on the front of the
Intimidator, with standard 3/8-in. hex key velocity adjustments. The high-pressure
regulator is mounted at the top of the regulator base and maintains the firing rate of the
Intimidator. The low-pressure regulator, which is mounted directly below high-pressure
regulator, maintains the cycling rate. All functions are electronically controlled via a
circuit board and 4-way air valve. Settings are changed via a 2-button, internally lit
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) screen. Rates of fire are variable from 8.1 to 14 balls per
Intimidator-3
second (bps), firing modes are from semi auto, full auto, 3 shot burst, 6 shot burst,
turbo, and reactive. Located within the marker body is a pair of infrared anti chop eyes.
The anti chop eye consists of a set of sensors mounted in the bottom of the breach to
restrict firing until the ball has completely loaded in the breach. The trigger is fully
adjustable, with adjustments for spring tension, pull restriction and firing pull. The gun
will perform on CO2 or HPA/Nitro (factory recommended). The regulator base houses a
standard ASA-threaded hole, for an external regulator or a gas-through grip. The marker
includes a built in drop forward to help balance the marker. The Intimidator comes
stock with a 10, 12, or 14 inch two piece Bob Long barrel.

OPERATION
GAS CONFIGURATIONS
CO2
When operating the Intimidator on CO2 it is strongly recommended to use a form of
the following:
• High Flow Expansion Chamber
• CO2 specific Regulator
• Bottom Line w/tilt
• Anti-Siphon Tank
• Remote with Harness Mounted Tank
Preset HPA/Nitrogen
When utilizing a preset HPA/Nitrogen system it is best to use an external regulator.
This reduces the possibility of over pressurizing the o-rings. Factory recommends
500 psi as output pressure. As most preset systems are around 800 to 850 psi
output pressure, using an external regulator provides the opportunity to reduce output
pressure to the factory recommended 500 psi. The internal high-pressure regulator
continues to remain the dominant high-pressure regulator over the external regulator.
Therefore, velocity adjustments will continue to be made at the internal high-pressure
regulator.
Adjustable HPA/Nitrogen
This is the factory recommended means of airflow for the Intimidator marker.
By setting the output pressure to 500 psi satisfies the air requirement for
the marker and does not allow over pressurizing of the o-rings.
Intimidator-8
AMMUNITION ASPECTS
Hopper
The Intimidator requires a high flow of paintballs to make full use of its features. To
satisfy this the use of the motorized loaders are recommended.
Paint
Using top grade paint ensures the utmost in performance and accuracy.
REGULATORS
Low Pressure Regulator
The low-pressure regulator (lpr) is mounted at the lower attachment point of the
regulator base. Small velocity adjustments are made at the lpr. Velocity adjustment
is achieved with a standard 3/8in hex key. Operating pressure for the lpr is between
50 and 100 psi. Operationally speaking, the lower the better, as when the pressure
gets too high, the chances of internal air leaks increases, the recoil gets stronger.
When the pressure is too high a noticeable ping sound can be heard during
operation. When the pressure is tool low the marker will be restricted in firing. There
is an option for gauge attachment left side of the regulator base. It is not 100%
necessary; therefore the Intimidator does not come from the factory with one
attached. Although, during regulator setup, when the internal pressure is changed it
is very useful. Any standard 1/8in npt gauge is sufficient.
High Pressure Regulator
The high-pressure regulator (hpr) is mounted at the upper attachment point of the
regulator base. Large velocity adjustments are made at the hpr. Velocity adjustment
is achieved the same as the lpr. The only difference between the lpr and hpr is the
operating pressure range. Pressure will vary between 200 to 300 psi. The primary
use for the hpr is to control ball speed. When adjusting the velocity after adjusting
the regulator pressure, 3 to 4 shots should be fired to allow the regulator to flatten
out. As before, a gauge is not included, or necessary, but recommended.
Intimidator-9
Low Pressure Conversion
To convert the high pressure regulator to low pressure follow the steps below:
1. De-gas marker.
2. Decrease velocity adjustment to relieve spring
pressure.
3. Unscrew the high-pressure regulator housing.
4. Remove piston.
5. Remove orange spring.
6. Remove spring washer.
7. Remove velocity adjuster completely.
8. Turn piston around so that large end is facing
towards pin valve.
9. Install piston, pushing it all the way until it stops.
10. Remove pin valve assembly.
11. Screw regulator housing onto marker.
Note: At this time the low-pressure conversion
is complete. Listed below are key points to
remember.
q Save the removed parts encase you wish to put
the regulator back to original state.
q An external regulator is required when converting
to low pressure.
q Remember to completely remove the velocity
adjuster. Failure to do this will not allow enough
volume for proper recovery.
q Remember to remove pin valve assembly.
Failure to do this will not allow air into required
chambers.
q Ensure large end of piston is facing towards pin
valve.
Intimidator-10
ELECTRONICS
Battery Information
The intimidator uses a standard 9v battery. To change the battery remove the 4
allen screws on the right side grip. The battery fits into the bottom (drop-forward) of
the grip frame. Disconnect the old battery and re-connect the new.
Anti Chop Eye
The Anti-Chop Eye is a pair of photo sensors in the bottom of the breach determining
when the paint ball is seated and ready fire. The EYE mode within the mode menu
can be set to determine how long the marker waits after seeing the ball before it will
fire. Factory recommended setting is 1ms. Refer to Figure 1 for available settings.
Light Emitting Diode (LED)/Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
When the gun is on, the LED will light with certain codes representing the status of
the marker. The codes are as follows:
q Solid Orange: The marker is in the bootup process.
q Flashing Green: Standard operation
q Solid Green: Marker operational
q Flashing Red: Allows normal operation, indicates battery is low.
q Solid Red: Marker not operational/marker in menu mode.
Mode Selection
The LCD is a two-button membrane, backlit, and menu driven system. To bring up
menu options for the gun, hold down both buttons until backlight illuminates (approx.
1 second). Upon release you will placed in the first menu (MODE = Firing Rate). A
definition of firing rates follows:
q Semi Auto: one pull, one shot
q Full Auto: Fires continually until trigger is released (up to 30 shots).
q 3 Shot: Fires 3 shots at the same rate as Full Auto.
q 6 Shot: Fires 6 shots at the same rate as Full Auto
q Turbo: Fires alternating 1 shot/2 shots per trigger pull.
q Reactive: Fires two shots per trigger pull.
Intimidator-11

Intimidator-19
q Sleeve Installation: Use caution when installing
the sleeve. Be careful not to cut the o-rings on
the sharp openings.
q Air Barb: Ensure fiber washer is on air barb base
prior to installation. This will ensure proper seal.
q Cup Seal: Ensure cup seal snaps into sleeve
seal. Failure to do this will allow the cup seal to
jump from seat, causing an extreme air leak.
q Poppet installation: Ensure poppet o-ring is well
greased. Allow poppet to slide into sleeve, once
seated tap on poppet end to mate poppet with
cup seal.
q Sleeve retaining allen: Use small amount of lock
tight on allen when installing. Failure to do this
may result in sleeve sliding back, causing
extreme damage to the marker and possible
injury to the operator.
q Eye Sensor Harness: Ensure harness is seated
in grove provided before attaching Eye Covers.
Failure to do this could pinch the wires and
render the eyes inoperable.
q Eye Covers: Do not over tighten the covers.
Over tightening will result in the cracking of the
covers.
Note: The feeder neck is installed with black
max at the factory. To remove the neck, loosen
the allen at the base of the neck, apply heat and
unscrew. Do not attempt to remove the neck
without first removing the retaining allen. Failure
to do this will result in the damage of the neck.
Intimidator-20
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
DO NOT use lightweight oil on marker. Oil will destroy internals
of Air Valve, O-rings, and Cup Seal.
General
Provide all O-rings within the marker a heavy coat of grease. The Poppet and Ram
O-rings need to be greased between 2000-3000 rds. fired. Keep foreign obstructions
out of marker internals.
Regulator
Regulator O-rings should be greased every 5000 rds. fired. Failure to do this will
reduce recover time of Regulators. Additionally, the piston will wear a grove in
Regulator housing. Ensure the Pin Valve lines up with the cup on the Piston. This
will eliminate the inadvertent bending of the pin.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Refer to Assembly/Disassembly to perform repairs indicated below.
Problem Cause Repair
When gas is applied to the
gun a load POP is heard
and air is escaping in our
around the Trigger Frame.
Airline or lines have
become stretched or
disconnected from Ram
Sleeve (usually due to over-
pressurizing of the
Regulators).
Re-connect airline.
Replace stretched/leaking
airline.
The Low pressure
Regulator is over-
pressurized and causing
the Air Valve to leak.
Turn down Low Pressure
Regulator.
Foreign Material has lodged
inside Air Valve. It is not recommended to
disassemble the Air Valve.
Remove and return Air
Valve to factory.
Gun leaks from inside the
Trigger Frame and hoses
are fine.
Heavy use of lightweight oil
ion marker causing internal
destruction of Air Valve.
It is not recommended to
disassemble the Air Valve.
Remove and return Air
Valve to factory.
Gun consistently leaks
down the barrel, decreasing
slightly when bolt is pushed
forward.
Heavy use of lightweight oil
causes deterioration of
Poppet O-ring and/or Cup
Seal.
Remove Poppet and
replace O-ring. Remove
and replace Cup Seal.
If bolt moves freely, one or
more of the airlines are
crimped.
Remove grip and re-
position airline/lines
Gun is pressurized and will
not fire.
If bolt does not move,
Trigger Solenoid is sticking
or inoperable. The solenoid
flap wedging against the
Trigger Spring housing
causes this.
Remove Grip and re-
position Trigger Solenoid.
LCD shows nothing or
displays unreadable
characters.
Ribbon has become
disconnected or damaged. Re-connect ribbon to
docking port on circuit
board. If ribbon is
damaged remove and
return to factory.
Intimidator-22
Marker fires with first shot
extremely slow. Poppet O-ring is dry. Grease Poppet O-ring.
High Pressure Regulator is
set to low. Increase pressure in High
Pressure Regulator.
Marker cycles but does not
fire.
Dwell is set to low. Set Dwell, green and black
wire Air Valve requires a
#16 Dwell setting, double
black wire Air Valve
requires #6 Dwell setting.
Regulator Pin Valve has
debris lodged between
valve and seal.
Remove debris from
Regulator Pin Valve.
Regulator/Regulators
pressure will not adjust.
Pin portion is bent causing
unreliable seal. Remove and replace Pin
Valve.
Unexplained ball breakage
and Sensor Eyes are fine. Ball Sizer was not installed
at barrel attachment. Install ball sizer and re-
attach barrel. If your
marker does not have ball
sizers, upgrade the type of
paint your shooting
Gun leaks down barrel. Setscrew used to retain
sleeve has become loose
causing sleeve to move
rearward.
Remove sleeve and replace
front 015 o-ring (placing
teflon tape in groove before
seating o-ring). Re-install
sleeve. Use caution to
ensure you do not cut o-
rings. Use lock-tite on
retaining screw.
Inconsistent velocity. High-pressure regulator
piston dry.
Large ram o-ring (rear) is
worn.
Paint does not fit barrel.
Lube piston
Replace o-ring
Use appropriate size of
paintball
Intimidator-23
When gun is turned to ON,
bolt moves forward and
fires.
Low Battery
Retaining screw for circuit
board is shorting out board.
Remove and replace
battery
Remove retaining screw
and install rubber o-ring
(poppet o-ring works fine).
Re-install circuit board
ensuring screw does not
touch board.
