What to lube on Termite? 2 Attachment(s) I acquired what I believe to be a Carter Termite. I took it apart to clean it up as it needed it. Not having worked on one before, I thought I'd post here to find out exactly what should be lubed before I put it back together...assuming the o-rings...anything else that should get some lube? Is triflow good enough? Only other thing I have on hand is Dow 55....but do have a shop a few miles down the road...not sure what they are selling though... ...thanks in advance... ...also added a pic of the marker itself...the grips on there are temp as I'm in the process of making wood grips... |
i'd put one drop of oil on the cup seal and power tube and that's it. leave the hammer and bolt dry. that's me...others may have other suggestions. |
Thanks for the input. Can I adjust velocity through the barrel, by changing springs, both, niether...seems pretty much like a typical Nelson type valve...it was shooting around 275 pretty consitently, though...which is where I normally set fps at... |
I put a slight sheen of light oil on everything shown, do make it heavy or it may inhibit the valve from functioning properly and you could lose velocity. |
I also like a light coat of oil on the hammer/bolt/powertube. Not much. I use one of those tiny nail polish bottles and a cap that has bristles on it, like a little brush, which I apply a little oil to each of the parts with. The only reason I did this in the first place though was all the friction I could feel when pumping, so if you don't have a scraping-feel like pump stroke you might want to try leaving everything dry (other than cupseal and o-rings). |
Umm your grip panel is upside down and on the wrong side.... but yeah what they said. |
