How to tune the Panthera

[shamu]

I cannot find a YouTube that explains Panthera tuning in detail. Help please. The power wheel is obvious but the micro adjustment is not. I can't even figure out how to get a hex wrench in the tiny hole behind the pressure gauge to adjust the regulator.

Nothing out yet…

I know the Impact manual suggests starting at the middle of Macro/Micro adjusters. These are denoted by circles around the numbers. From there, set the regulator pressure using a ball-end hex to fit in there.

The micro adjuster is all that matters.
The further up it goes in terms of the scale, the higher the hammer spring tension.
The power wheel/macro adjuster is just a coarse adjuster for the same thing, for bigger jumps. Each turn just causes the micro to shift a set amount. So in other words the macro on 23 and the micro on 4 is the exact same thing as the macro on 3 and the micro on 4.

The reg pressure screw is not behind the reg gauge, rather lying at an angle just in front of the trigger. Takes a 2.5mm Hex.

Tuning the Panthera is effectively identical to the Crown. Try watching the AEAC guide to tuning that and you'll have as much of an idea as you can get without actually doing it.

Awesome stuff, thanks guys

You'll need a 2.5mm hex with the ball end on it and you be able to get in from the side and turn the screw.

It takes more to tune the Panthera than the M3. Just know that after making an adjustment it will take a few shots for the adjustment to register. To many people are expecting quick changes and moving to much to quickly.

Forget heavy hammers. A lot of people are finding bend valverods in their Panthera. You can get new ones under waranty, but how long will they hold. Cause of this is the hammer hitting the valve with the side.
