Its usually listed in the manual, but take a drop or 2 of the supplied oil, or paintballgun oil. Drip it into the ASA before you attach the bottle to it. This should run run oil through the gun. Don't overdo it, or you will be spraying oil out the barrel all day.

thats it just two drops in the gun and o rings are oiled. lol thats easy then. im use to taking firearms apart and oiling them and i know on a firearm you pretty much have to oil everything and after ever major use. i was just unsure about paintball guns. and i read the manual but it never really said anything about what to oil and what not. it was just like heres the power tube, this is the asa, blah blah blah. thanks though

i take it apart and clean it through and through just like a real gun. Plus, if you just put two drops in the asa, that only oils the line and in the valve. you NEED to oil all the o rings and the bolt as well. A rule of thumb i use; If it moves, I oil it. Just a drop or so, i mean dont over do it. A clean gun is a happy gun. Take care of it and it will take care of you.
