how to maintain your spyder imagine

[wicked2740]

How do u adjust the SPEED the paintballs come out. I know where it is on my TIPMAN. But can't find it on on the spyder image.

[TheShellshock1992]

i have a spyder imagine and when i squeeze the trigger it doesnt work i check the inside and the thing inside doesnt seem to run, peope say it the baterry because i have a 9v not a 9.6v and others say its the little black barrel inside the gun, so can any one help

[punisher98pg]

I'm having problems with the catch

[punisher98pg]

I realy need help ....

[fastguy456]

does ur trigger have 3 modes or 1

[fastguy456]

is ur trigger have 3 modes or 1

[YumpyTrain]

@174Brandon174 it's very common. That's your respirator, and it basically filters off air do you're not shooting to hot

[YumpyTrain]

Why didn't you just tune down your respirator instead of cutting the spring?

[babyj0107]

question my spyder imagine is leaking air thru the barrel, i took barrel off and it sounds like its leaking thru the bolt i changed orings and oiled it and its still doing the same thing what could it be???ANYONE???

[punisher98pg]

sorry if I'm confusing u but I realy need help because the guns so old non of my friends have it to help me :(

[punisher98pg]

I tryed shooting and it didn't work . I so I what I did is I turned the black piece the other way and it slid right in. but than when I put the spring in it cant go in all the way. When first got the gun I pulled the bold back all the way, than when I went to go shoot it the bolt didnt moved forward . idk why?

[punisher98pg]

Can someone please help me !? I played paintball twice and I loved it ! So my friened gave me his spyder imagine to start ! so when he gave it to me he told me

to clean it so I did . I used your video to guide me threw it every thing was goin well until it came time to put the bolt into the gun . I was able to get the bolt inside the gun but not all the way. I tryed every thing

I could to get it in all the way but nothing ! I

felt like something was stoping it! plz help !

[Havoc928]

@punisher98pg Turn it on and pull the trigger while pushing the bolt in. it releases the catch

[AAVince2513]

Is that trigger stock or is it aftermarket I want to change mine out but I can't get the little pin out and it's really shut tight in I've

[Havoc928]

@AAVince2513 stock

[174Brandon174]

question i have this gun, just wondering did your ever have an air leak near the silver thing at end of gun, didnt know if these are comon

[Havoc928]

@174Brandon174 Nope, i never had a problem with it

[pbcarnage]

spyders are popit valve guns the extra black piece that came out after the spring and guide was the ram

[TheKrumpe]

how do i take the ring out?! i accidentally put it in all the way before the spring!!

[AAVince2513]

What's the stupid ring after the spring when you pull out the bolt I'm only missing that thing and the spring guide and another screw were the handle sticks to barrel ect.

[patriotvalencic1]

use vasoline it lasts longer which means less maintnence

[patriotvalencic1]

instead of oil use vasoline it lasts alot longer and then it needs less maintnence

[mafiahalo93]

dont put too much oil if u use CO2 it would frezze in ur gun

[mikhailasargalliv]

easy to maintain, cheap,100% reliable, and has a nice accuracy, this gun hangs out with the new stuff, it gets muddy and wet and it stills work. I personally own one is my only gun tho. I've been with it since they got out to market.

[Multicoloredskater]

what's that thing on top of your gun where the hopper goes? i need one because none of my hoppers fit. what's it called and where do you think I can get one?

[Havoc928]

@Multicoloredskater It is a clamping feed neck and you can get one at any local shop...hell, you can even probaly find one at walmart.

[kvnkvnusc]

Hey guys im selling a spyder imagine with a bunch of other paintball equipment if you want more info message me! thanks! Its a great starter gun!

[shutthehellup6666]

this realy helped

[niccruiser]

ecxact same thing for the mr1

[OneBlackGuy1]

my gun cleans itself

[StAnCeClAuSe]

Paper clip, Nice touch. Never thought about that when I lost my clip

[ryando67]

hey my gun will only shoot 1 or 2 then stop why is this? and can i lube it by putting lube where my tank goes in?

[CesarSTYLE562]

do you really need the spring guide? cuz mine was missing when i bought if off my freind. would it affect the fps cuz mine shoots pretty low

[CesarSTYLE562]

true that about the hopper. an electric hopper will highly reduce your chances of chopping the paintballs when firing on full auto

[joedvs1]

what will happen if i don't clean it?

[Havoc928]

O-rings will bust more often from not being lubed and accuracy will suffer from dirt and grime in the gun.

[SuperCoolLemon]

if your having gun problems just take it to a local paintball shop. I did several times and i usually only had to pay for the parts it needed. Plus now i know how to do it myself.

[ICchil]

thx this vid really helped we dont have the same marker but its still the same

[ajwalters12]

nice u have the same model as me but mines blue....i dont really like the new models

[mattmopar440]

nice job dude i have a black one with red led it rocks!!, do you know where i can get spare parts for it?

[arabman]

and it keeps sputtering out

[duderock400]

from where does it leak

[arabman]

hey i just bought my spyder imagine from a friend and as soon as i put in the co2 tank i shoot one ball then i have to cock it again and it leaks co2 what should i do???????????? anybody plzzz help!!!!!!

[bobcatmc13]

You have to change the o-ring were the tank screws in hope tha helps

[pearljammin19]

tha leak is probably in one of the hoses...i had the same problem....u can fix it with tefflon tape

[awesomeyitanex]

@arabman mine has the same problem im goin to change the o'rings all of em and chek if it works...

[adolphin23]

@arabman i had the same problem with my piranha r6 u need to replace your o rings (all of them) and the spring u can find the spring at like wal-mart or a paintball shop or sumthing my gun works grt now

[lucascollaresbarreto]

ok, i have the electric hopper (halo frontman) and i still chop the paint.!! dont u think i need a better barrel?

[dont1hate1skate]

no a new will do why would you buy a barrel if you chop balls?!?

[lucascollaresbarreto]

i asked Havoc928 before and he said it was either a new barre or electric hopper. i have the halo hopper and still chops on automatic. so i guessed it was the barrel than? what should i do?

[Havoc928]

i did not say anything about the barrel, that is most likely not the problem.

[iHackYourTech]

I just won a Spyder Imagine on ebay. Gonna favorite this video and look back on it when I need to maintain mine.

[lucascollaresbarreto]

hey! i have one imagine CP with stock barrel, everything that i shoot auto, it chops a few balls. What should i change on my imagine? barrel, bolt or both?

[Havoc928]

you are most likely using a gravity hopper....right? if so it will be chopping balls because it can not feed the 13 BPS the imagine shoots on full auto. try an electric hopper and see how that works.

[lucascollaresbarreto]

no, i have a Halo frontman lcd version hopper, he is adjusted to high sensitivity.

[CommaCommen]

Thanks mann, very helpful. =D

[armoredskis425]

i am going to get a longer barrel for my imagine. i want an 18 inch or 20 inch. Does anybody now any good barrels that are that size to buy online?

[Havoc928]

For the most part there is no point in going that big. usually a 12 or 14 inch is best.

[armoredskis425]

how often should you do this

[laxguitar50]

every 20 cases of paint

[lilmobsta210]

well do u think i can bring it to a paintball place and they can take it out?

[Havoc928]

absolutley.

[lilmobsta210]

and one last question. Will they have to disassemble the whole gun or do they have like a special gadget to get the shim out of the gun?

[Havoc928]

Honestly, i am not sure as i have never ran into this problem.

[lilmobsta210]

hey i have a question. i accidentally put in the small circle rubber thing in before the hammer and im not sure how to get it out. Plz message me back. Thanks

[Havoc928]

just get something small like tweezers to try and get it out...that is all i can think of.

[tpshockey1]

thx im like just starting so i like don't know anything helped alot

[tpshockey1]

what caliber paintball does you marker use

[Havoc928]

.68

[ghostshadow14]

Simply beast man, this helped me a lot thx =)

[travisrhiner199]

Thanks bro I just bought my Imagine, when I took out the internals I saw that thier not grimy their just scratched up. Is there any way to get new internals? If so can you send me a link.

[Havoc928]

just head on down to your local store and see if they should have new internals that you could buy. but the scratches arn't a big deal at all.

[SteelKahunas]

Thank you

[mikejames93]

nice!!!

[jeebzPB]

spyders are so freaking easy to take apart lol

try doing that on an ion.............OMFG

[Havoc928]

yes teh spyder is very easy...and my DM5 is so freakign complicated.

[hendrix13494]

but i bet your dm5 doesn't suck ass

[paintballguy169]

i dont trust myself to go inside of the gun. can anything go wrong?

[Havoc928]

well i can not think of anything that can go wrong since everything in has to go in one way so there really isn't room to mess up.

[RE4LSK8ER]

yeah i was looking around on action village.

i found it.

thanks anyways.

[RE4LSK8ER]

which feed neck fits it?

redz makes a couple pf them.

[Havoc928]

just head on down to your local shop and ask them if they carry a clamping feed neck for the spyder and you are good to go.

[Aggiesgigem]

What does that little knob on the back do? I found my imagine and that part's gone :O

[Havoc928]

with my model, and i am pretty sure it is the same for all spyders, it is used to adjust the velocity.

[Havoc928]

yep no problem

[ASKAJAIMES]

THANKS, VERY USE

FULL

[blizzunt]

Hello, i have a spyder imagine also and its leaking air out of the barrel. Do you know what's the problem?

[1cheeselova]

your valve is broken or your valve pin isn;t covering your valve

[turbotech14]

can you run nitrogen on it even tho it stock

[snakeater210]

yeah just keep the pressure kinda low

[kentto60]

thank you

[itouchipods]

dude, there is a little round disk in the "back" of the gun, dont lose that.

and that little black ring is the striker buffer.

[paintballrokz]

wat happens if u lose that round disk atthe  back

[itouchipods]

bad things.

i'm not possitive what happens, but i no u really dont want to.

[paintballrokz]

alright can i buy another one of these or not

[itouchipods]

im not completely sure, but i would immagine u could.if u taake it to a paint ball shop they might have one, or they could probably order one for u.

why, u lose yours?

[paintballrokz]

thx man cuz my gun didnt even come wit one and then wen i was watching all these vids i realized that i didnt hav one in my gun but thx anyway man

[itouchipods]

did u find 1 for sale?

[paintballrokz]

im goin to a pro shop tommorow so ill try to find one if i dont ill just buy a new gun

[mainalt]

Thx, I just bought the 05 spyder imagine (first gun) and this was really helpful.

[Havoc928]

i got my clamping feed neck from the local store its a redz clamping feedneck

[taco10888]

your gun looks like a taco....lol

[Havoc928]

yes this si the 04 model...probaly goes for about 50$ since i bough tit for 100

[taco10888]

where did u get your thing that connects to your hopper on top??

[xsyounggun]

is this the 2004 model? .. is this a good hun ..how much does like a uesed one go for

[BadIdeas101]

how often do u need to take it apart and clean it? my bud said to just put some oil in the co2 valve and fire it a few times

[MassAznInvazn]

Mot a bad vid, but I wouldn't rub in the oil with my hands. If you just leave it on the o-rings, it flows in. And also, you don't just oil to clean. You need to wipe off the dirt with a towel or something. Over-oiling can gum up your system.
