AdjuStinG the VeLocitY
When using your Etha, you may wish to change the 
velocity at which your Etha is firing. This is done by 
inserting a 1/8" hex key into the adjuster screw at the 
bottom of  your SL3 inline regulator and adjusting it 
accordingly 
(See fiGure 11A). 
By turning the adjuster screw clockwise you decrease 
the output pressure of  the inline regulator and 
consequently decrease the velocity; by turning 
the adjuster screw counter-clockwise you increase 
the output pressure of  the inline regulator and 
consequently increase the velocity. On the bottom 
of  the inline regulator there are engraved arrows to 
illustrate which direction to turn the hex key to make 
the relevant adjustment
1,2
.
Setting the output pressure too high on any inline 
regulator used with the Etha will cause the solenoid 
valve under the Etha body to vent gas from its built-in 
pressure relief valve. If  this occurs, reduce the output 
pressure of  the inline regulator.
1
After each adjustment fire two clearing shots to gain an accurate 
velocity reading. Never exceed 300fps. 
2
High, mid and low pressure output preset air systems can be 
used with the Etha, providing the Etha is fitted with the SL3 inline 
regulator originally supplied with the marker.
CHECK THE VELOCITY OF THE MARKER AT 
REGULAR INTERVALS DURING USE. MANY 
EXTERNAL FACTORS CAN EFFECT THE VELOCITY 
THE MARKER FIRES AT SUCH AS; AMBIENT 
AIR TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE, SIZE OF 
PAINTBALLS BEING USED AND BARREL BORE SIZE.
