New Geo owner. Help?

Been reading the sticky's and such. I dont have air at the moment. I notice that my noid does not click at all with eyes off and on (I block eyes with finger). Is this normal? just getting a little worried. Also "training mode" should this be on or off? any thanks is appreciated.

Training mode will cause the sound module on the board to chirp each time you pull the trigger, but will not activate the solenoid. The training mode is just to help you practise how fast you can pull the trigger, and get some feed back from the marker, without it cycling. When it comes to actually firing the marker (or clicking the solenoid) training mode will need to be turned off.

The solenoid is fairly quiet, and that may be the only reason you aren't hearing it. Alternatively, you dwell could be too low (assuming that the settings have been altered from stock of course), or you may need a fresh battery.

If the trigger has been altered, then it is possible that the trigger is not actually activating a shot - if you switch the board to show the shot counter, does the count increase each time you pull the trigger?

Alright thank you for your time. I will grab some air and get back to you.

Any help with the trigger anyone? feels a little loose. moves side to side.

There is a screw that clamps the trigger to the pivot pin. This may be loose and could need tightening. It's the middle of the five screws through the face of the trigger.

Also, if you take the frame off the body, the two screws that hold the entire trigger assembly to the frame could be loose. I know that it will make the trigger feel really sloppy if those two screws aren't tightened down.

Very true.

The solenoid is VERY quiet, that's why you don't hear it. When I first got mine, I had the same question.

Thank you all for your time , I am really grateful. Fixed the trigger issue just now. It was the middle screw on the trigger. Here's a pic of my GEO and damn proud of owning it!

Nice.... have fun with it...

also, if you are using the Optical instead of the microswitch for your trigger, it may not register if you have the grip cover off, as bright light may cause it to not register a trigger pull (or turn on actually, but this is normal as per manual).

*just in case*

I am using Optical , I think it feels much better than switch. I used angels a lot and they were all optical. Thanks for the heads up bro!
