Paintball Gun Maintenance: Tools Needed

Video Transcript

"Hi, this is Robert Stewart, with hill13.com. So now we've got a weapon that's completely safe to do maintenance on. There's no air, there's no paint, the bolt is forward; safety is now on so the weapon can't fire, but how do we work on it. What do we what do we use. So, we're going to talk a couple of seconds about some basics that you need to have. Now, if you buy your weapon, you're probably going to get it with a manual. You're going to get it with an Allen Wrench, or maybe a little bit of machine oil. I would still recommend going and buying yourself a set of Allen Wrenches; multi-sized Allen Wrenches, because this just this works every time. The other thing I would recommend is a multi-tool, and you can pick any brand; there are a whole bunch. But these also come in real handy. Now, here you see one of our field kits, and you should have one of each of these. If you have, here's another good point, if you have a spare part that you're constantly losing, keep one. Keep caps; again, caps for your tank head, so that you can cover those, and protect them. You need the Allen Wrenches of the sizes for your weapon, you need some oil, and it's always good to probably keep a couple of burst disk valves on hand, and if you have it, keep your manuals. Your manuals can help you; also, you should have a selection of o-rings for the size o-rings for your paintball gun. Once you've got all that, you're ready to start working on your paintball gun."
