This guide can be applied to ASA /regu-
lators on several markers including Mini
GS, Axe Pro, D’fender Vanquish 2013, and
Vanquish 2015.
* Note the Vanquish ASA/regulator does not have a
gauge installed on the side since pressure is shown
on the OLED screen
For ASA/Regulator service you will need the fol-
lowing tools:
3/32in hex wrench, needle-nose pliers, o-ring pick, 1/2in socket or nut driver, 3mm nut driver, Dow 33 type
grease
Place the 3/32in hex wrench in hole of HP Regulator Cap and
unscrew the cap. The Main Regulator Spring and Regulator Disk
will be sitting lose in the front cap. Be sure not to lose these parts
(see figures 2 & 3).
Shift the Regulator Lever forward to the off position. Insert the
1/2in hex socket into tank side of regulator and unscrew brass
Regulator Nut (see figures 4 & 5).
Inspect the o-ring on the Regulator Nut and replace if damaged
(shown in figure 6 labeled A)
Use a pair of pliers to remove the On/Off Pin from the Pin Retainer
in the tank side of the regulator. Be sure to grab the pin by the
smaller part of the pin near the tip. Inspect o-ring on the inside
of the Pin Retainer and replace if necessary (see figure 7, o-ring
labeled A).
Use a 3/32 hex wrench to unscrew the shoulder screw on the
bottom of the regulator (see figure 8). The lever is under spring
pressure to you may have to push the lever down slightly to re-
move the screw (see figure 9). Once screw is removed lever will
fall out and the Pin Wedge and Wedge Return Spring will fall from
the bottom of the regulator (see figure 10). Be careful not to lose
these small parts
Insert a 3/32 hex wrench in bottom of regulator in the void left by
the Pin Wedge and spring. Use hex wrench to unseat the Pin Re-
tainer by pushing it towards the tank side of the regulator (see fig-
ure 11). You should feel a pop when it is unseated. Once unseated,
remove the hex wrench and turn regulator tank side down to allow
Pin Retainer to fall into your hand. Inspect outer o-rings of the
pin/seal retainer for damage and replace if needed (see figure 12).
Insert 3mm nut driver into the tank side of regulator onto silver
Regulator Pin. In the opposite side of the regulator, place the o-
ring pick on in the small hole the Piston (brass material) as shown
in figure 13. Hold the Piston stationary and unscrew the Regulator
Pin. Once fully unscrewed turn regulator tank side down and allow
the Piston Washer and Regulator Pin to come out with the 3mm
nut driver as shown in figure 14.
If the Regulator Pin and Piston Washer don’t fall out easily use
pliers to grab the Regulator Pin by the head and lift it from the
regulator body. Then use an o-ring pick to loosen the Piston Washer carefully while not damaging the washer
or regulator. Note the Piston Washer is semi-transparent and may be hard to see. If the Piston Washer is
