Where's the Lvl-10 manual/FAQ? (Adjusting)
It doesn't appear to be on the website. (My LX came w/ my gun)I expect this is all in the manual, but going through "official" troubleshooting thread and install video, here's what I've gathered so far (and wassn't all that clear):
Carriers: You want the loosest carrier that doesn't leak. More lines/dots means it's BIGGER, therefore LOOSER. (This apparently contradicts many of the posts) Carrier o-rings have a break-in period, so a borderline setting may need to move down a carrier afterwards.
Springs: Stronger/longer springs are gentler on the ball, as expected, but may prevent operation at lower velocity(pressure) settings. (If using a spring w/ a "loose" end, put that end against the bolt itself to not damage the interior of the chamber.
Shims: Okay, obviously they prevent the tip from being screwed in as far, or make the carrier/o-rings inside tighter at least but what are they functionally adjusting? How much resistance before the bolt vents? (Adding shims makes it more "sensitive"?)
And can I assume the larger backing o-ring is part of the LX and not part of the stock bolt?
