Is it RT or Standard? If its standard follow these instructions:

First completely degas the gun. Disconnect any air line (macro/SS/micro etc) from the valve. Once you do that you can unscrew the field strip bolt from the rear of the grip frame. Once thats removed squeeze the trigger and you can slide the valve assy back about 1/4". Then twist the whole assembly 1/4" turn clockwise. Then it should slide completely out.

Once out.. the bolt and spring can be removed and should be cleaned. The powertube which is where the bolt slid over should be cleaned as well. The brass tip on the powertube (PT) can be unscrewed with a nickel and will expose the PT spacer and PT O-ring. This o-ring should be inspected every 10,000rds and cleaned then re-lubed.

The next part of valve would be the on/off it's the round piece with a pin in it. You can remove this assembly by pulling it straight out. The on/off assembly is made up of the on/off bottom-silver cylindrical piece, on/off top round brass piece. There are also two very small teflon o-rings (ivory white). And two on/off o-rings a little bigger and not as white. These should be inspected if the gun leaks down the barrel or out of the trigger frame.The on/off bottom has two o-rings in it. A teflon on top and a on/off on the bottom. When you put the pieces back in it, staring with the first piece into the gun, it should be one on/off o-ring,next a teflon, next the on/off top, then the the on/off bottom, then the on/off pin with the teardrop end sticking out. All these parts should be cleaned and lightly lubed every 10,000 shots or sooner.

At the very back of the gun behind the on/off assembly is the regulator. You can unscrew the rgeulator from the back of the Valve and this will reveal the Regulator valve pin and the reg seat. This should should be inspected ONLY if you are have velocity problems. Constant removal and installation can cause premature failure. On the back half of the reg where you adjust velocity, you can unscrew the adjuster nut and you will find the reg spring pack (black and should be greased) and in front of that you will find the reg piston. The two little holes should be facing forward and the hex key should be facing the rear. Do not unscrew the hex screw. You can tap the reg in the palm of your hand, hole facing down, to remove this piece. The orings on the reg piston should be inspected if you get velocity drop off or leaking out the back of the reg.


Hope this helps.
