Axe trigger clicking problem
I got a brand new axe and as soon as I pulled the trigger, I never heard a click. I have tried everything to get it shooting and it wont work. I took the trigger all the way out, it still didn't work. I tried shooting it with a paintball in the breach with air, still didn't work. Also, when I turn the eyes off and pull the trigger, the solenoid doesn't make the clicking sound it does on my friend's axe. What do you guys think the problem is?

The set screws on the trigger are either too far in(always engaging micro switch) or too far out(not engaging the micro switch). Play around with the set screws and that should fix it.

Weird question, do you have an upper board?
If so, does the micro switch click when you press it down with your fingers?

I had the same problem. I took apart the entire frame and realized that the internal screw on the trigger, the one that actually hits the micro switch was not screwed in far enough. It is working now but I have noticed that after a while it seems like the screw is getting looser and looser and I have to tighten it. Does anyone know what I should do?

I've seen a lot of people using loctite to keep the set screws in place. |
