   Been seen alota people with new timmys on the tippmann forum lately.. so yeh starting this thread to maybe help some out.

Anyways here are some common questions you may ask.

Q.What type of intimidators are out there?
A.Currently there are the Classic, GZ, Z, 2k2, Ironman, Texas Storm, Lasoya, Species, Alias, Empire, Ripper, and the Naughty Dogs, Russian Legion, Dark, and the Atomix. (as far as i know)
Q.What boards do they come stock with?
A.From what i know Classic, GZ, Z, and 2k2 comes with S.O.B (semi-auto only board), and the Texas Storm, Lasoya, Species, should come with WAS, and the Alias, Empire, and Naughty Dogs, Russian Legion, and the Atomix, should come with Frenzy board.
Q.What other boards are out there?
A.WAS, Frenzy, Entropy, SOB, and yeah.
Q.How do I update my current board?
A.Go to the W.A.S main site, and buy Equalink, and update it from the site.
Q.How do you adjust the trigger?
A.The TOP screw adjusts the tension, the middle screw adjusts the microswitch, the last is the trigger stop.
Q.How do i adjust the velocity?
A.Screw your LPR(below the barrel), and the Regulator(Boblong Torpedo) screws out all the way, and then screw in tank. Turn the LPR in till ur Gauge reads 85 - 95(IMPORTENT!!!KEEP BELOW 100!), then start adjusting the Regulator screw on the chrono till u reach 280 fps. Remember to adjust a little then shoot a couple, and then do it over and over.
Q.What is an ram adjuster?
A.Its an ram cap which allows u to adjust your bolt front and back. It is best to adjust ur bolt to where u can see only a very small bit of the bolt from down the feed neck.
Q.How do i clean the reg and the lpr?
A.LPR:Screw off the lpr, lube the O-rings in the lpr with DOW-55(IMPORTENT! dont use nethin else. GREASE ONLY NO OIL). Then screw the lpr back in. REGULATOR: Screw off the bottom half and the top half of the regulator. Top half has the brass pin, and the Bottom half has the regulator piston. Take off the brass pin and lube the oring and lightly oil. Take off the piston from the bottom half of the regulator and use DOW-55 and grease it up. Screw the 2 pieces together and back onto the timmy.
Q.How do i clean the ram?
A.Take of the ram cap, pull out the bolt pin, then pull out the bolt. Tilt the gun upside down and the ram should slide right out. Clean it up with a rag then use DOW-55 to lightly grease the o-rings on the ram. Stick it back in and put on the bolt and ram cap.
Q.How to get to poppet and cupseal?
A.Take off your Trigger Frame, then pull out the hose connected to the timmy barb on the regulator base ( where lpr and regulator is connected to ), then screw off the screw on the regulator base. Then carefully pull out the regulator base and in the ram sleeve should be the poppet and the cupseal (black magic cupseal is a recommended upgrade!). Make sure to lube the poppet every 10,000 shots or so.
Q.What eye setting do i set it on when im about to play a game?
A.Your eye settings should be set on FORCED.
Q.My gun wont dry fire, what is wrong?
A.Go to settings and change your Eye settings to Bypass.
Q.There is a leak coming from my intimidator, where is it coming from?
A.There are many possible places that the leak can be coming from. First make sure u check your orings on ur N2 Tank. If that isnt the problem, screw off your ram cap and check your ram. Make sure there aren't ne slices on the orings on the ram. Also you might want to rebuild ( to disassemble, clean and reassemble) your regulator. If those aren't the things causing the leak, remove your frame and check your hose and ur barbs( timmy high flow barbs are recommended ), if thats not the problem, it is most likely to be your cupseal ( black magic cupseal recommended ).
Q.How do i clean the eye?
A.Take off the Eye Cover on both side of the intimidator. Pop the eyes out from the both sides and wipe with a tissue or somethin soft so u dont scratch the eye. Put the eye and the detents back in and screw on the eye cover.
Q.What are some recommended upgrades?
A.First, you better get your self a drop or a uni-mount considering asa does not come installed on intimidators. Also, barrel is a must, even though the stock Long Shot is a nice barrel, id recommend getting a new barrel (i got cp 2 piece. great barrel). Secondly, a new trigger ( preferably the critical trigger, techna trigger, or cp trigger. ) The stock triggers are sloppy and it sux IMO. Thirdly, Ram Adjuster would be a great investment. Also a new bolt might be nice too ( supafly ).
SOME IMPORTENT REMINDERS!
Make sure to keep your intimidator running under 100 psi. Run your intimidator over 100 psi you may have some leaks, major kick back on ur gun, and possibly blow your solonoid and mess up your gun.
Make sure your eyes are set on FORCED before you go play a game.
Make sure to use DOW-55 ONLY and to lube your gun before a day of paintball, and after the day of paintball.
When you put on your bolt, make sure the pull pin is aligned with the ram.
Before airing up your intimdator, make sure your LPR and the Regulator screws are all the way out. Airing up your intimidator with your regulator screw or LPR screw screwd pretty deep in can and most likly WILL blow your solenoid, and cause mad leaks.
Debounce 1 for WAS 2.7
To unlock debounce one on 2.7 WAS board for the indimidator

hold down the trigger 
turn on your timmy 
release the trigger 
click the trigger untill your timer, active, settings light on the right side of your timmy turns green 
now hold down the trigger on green untill it stays green 
release the trigger 
let the lights flicker a bit (confirming that you have changed the settings) 
how click the trigger 255 times (COUNT OUT LOUD) 
then stop after 255 and let the lights go off again (this time it should flicker much faster) 
after it has flicker, click the trigger to make sure that you are out of the debounce setting (green) meaning you can click and the light changes colors 
turn on your timmy regularly 
go to your debounce settings and it should be at 255 or +/- 5 
from there change the settings forward so if its 255 go to 256 and on untill it goes to debounce 0, then go up one more time to 1 
now you save it 
and you have a fully illegal timmy
