Read the users manual before playing. Each AEG will have different operating characteristics.
After playing, remove the magazine and switch to single shot mode to release the spring within the mechbox. Finally disconnect the battery ( Fig 1 ). Clean and lubricate your AEG before storage, as needed.
Clean the inner barrel ( Fig 2 )and spray some silicone onto the hop up after heavy use.

Gas operate pistol basic maintenance
Read the user manual before playing, each pistol will have different operating characteristics.
After playing, clean any dirt off the mechanisms, release the remaining gas in the magazine ( Fig 4 ), In the valve ( Fig 5 ), try to spray some silicone on the inflow valve and outflow valve ( Fig 6 ) .
Stock pistols should only use HFC 134a Gas!
Modified Pistols with improved internals can use Top Gas or Green Gas.
When filling gas magazines, the proper way to do it is with the gas inverted. See user manual for your gas pistol for illustrations.
A 2 - 3 second charge with any type of gas is sufficient ( Too gas much will damage the magazine and/or the seals and thus cause leakage.)
After repeated use the magazine may be very cold. This will cause a decrease in power due to the gas not expanding correctly, please wait 5 - 10 minutes to allow the magazine to warm up.

Pressing trigger with no response? ( MARUI )
First, inspect the motor, has it overheated ( if motor overheated, please allow the unit to cool sufficiently )? If not ( Fig 8 ), try a different battery, preferably a known fully charged battery. If you can detect resistence within the motor like it's trying to turn or can hear faint humming noises, disconnect the battery immediately to prevent further damage to the AEG.
If motor diagnostic turned up negative like the motor was dead. Please check the battery connections( Fig 9 ) and motor connections ( Fig 10 ). Also check the fuse and see if it has burned out. ( Fig 11 ).
If everything checks out from above and it is still "dead". Then there could be other problems inside the AEG.

What should you do when AEG's are jammed with a BB. ( MARUI )
Use the unjamming tools that came with you gun. Insert it into the barrel (Fig 12 )and push gently til the jammed BB comes loose. Afterwards reverse the tool and attach a clean strip of cloth, spray lubricant/cleaners on the cloth and then insert into barrel to clear dust or dirt from the barrel( Fig 13 ). Spray some silicone thru it and wipe residuals one more time.
Don't use any poor quality BB's, especially in tight bore barrels!
If the AEG still will not feed or fire. There could be a problem inside the unit or maybe in the gearbox. If you are new to Airsoft or not experienced in repairing Airsoft items, please send the item to one of our designated repair facilities.

FIG 13:
Proper use of AEG's
Excessively long firing in full auto will cause premature wear inside the gearbox. ( Do not empty a hicap in one long burst! )
Firing in bursts is better for your gearbox, squeeze trigger straight back, do not push trigger sideways for it will damage the gear box.
After playing, please put AEG in safe mode ( Fig 16 ).
