Q:

How to Tweak the Regulator (Easy way).

Wanted to show a couple of things i did to the Edgun (Fixes/tunes) for a long time & so here it is, this is basically a quicker way of tuning the regulator up/down, the other way is a lot more time consuming.

This is the regulator, you remove the top screw (cap)by turning it clockwise then there’s another screw that you need to turn clockwise about 30 (1 o’clock) degrees to get around 5-10bar lower & anticlockwise for more pressure

As you can see i used a 1″ PVC pipe and put some electric tape on the tip to protect the tank from scratching. 25″ length is more than enough to reach the regulator.

The cap covering the regulator is also warped with electric tape but not too tight, that way once its in place & you turn it anti clockwise than you just pull the PVC pipe out, in my case i completely removed it, so i can tweak it quicker (Not sure if its a bad thing or not but so far so good).

What you do is, you drain all the air in the tank and then only open the top cap like the picture below, than you use that PVC pipe with the screw tip & slide it all the way inside & turn really slow with your fingers until you feel that it rested on the Regulator scree & there is a bit of pressure when you start turning now, also its a good idea to remember where you had the regulator before making any changes so you know how far you turned it.

I will eventually show the things i fabricated for the edgun, im just too lazy to do it now.

UPDATE

Here is a couple of things that broke, or werent working too good & so i made some modification, ill just let the pictures do the talking.








P.S: We have many Edgun users here & i think it would be great if someone makes a sticky with all the bits & pieces for the Edgun including O-Rings sizes, things to do, tweaks, tunes & a how to. That way we all contribute to that thread & make it a helpful page for all EDgun users.

Updated the first post πŸ˜€

Ed, thank you.

Naser, the parcel with some spare part is in Estonia at last πŸ™‚ I do hope Andrey will send it to you (or has sent already). Sorry for such a delay, but the situation with the parcels in Russia is really crazy. I have ordered a brake for my lathe from India (thanks to one of my clients) and it came to Russia from India within a week, but only after 1 month and a half!!! I got a requirement from Russian DHL office about providing them a bloody pipe of papers to allow the brake get out of the custom!!! I still don’t have it, it arrives in Russia on 18th of December πŸ™

Jumetrog,

Register with imageshack than upload your photos & you will have a link for each photo to show on the forums.

I too had to fabricate some parts after they broke, I know Ed is having problems shipping these guns but I’m not sure if that includes parts but so far it seems that way.

Please show what you did once you upload these photos, I’ve done a couple of mods to my .25 Matador too, I’ll upload the pictures later tonight.

Tony, can I buy one of these please and some of the parts you have in stock ?

I’m in the same process of adjusting my .25 Matador. Here some issues that I’ve made.

-Turn the Reg. down, (in the hard way) now is -5/8 of a turn with average of 915 fps with kings
-The hammer broke while I was dry firing the gun, I ask Ed for a new one, I said that he will send me one. But in the mid time I made a new one in a workshop and it works very well.
-one day, my matador fell down and the air pressure gauge damaged, so I fixed it with a friend of mine.
After all those troubles now my matador is shooting real nice, I’ll post some groups when I get my camera to the field.
That is a very good Idea to all of us who have matadors to contribute to this post.
Do you know how can I upload some pictures?[/img]

That’s why we need to gather all that info in one thread. Any way to order one or two of these regulators ?
