Well if your gun is new then you should send back to Martin to have it adjusted. If you don’t care about the warrant then you have two choices.
1. Buy new regulator from Martin and have him set it at 125bar (160.00)
2. Remove it from the rifle and adjust it — then Put back in and see what pressure you have.
———. on the bottom of the action you will see a place where you can put a pressure gauge to measure it.
———- or if you have a regulator test fixture — this Is Best but not everyone has one......

Simply a matter of the amount of compression on the bellvile washer stack. This can actually happen with your meaning too in sone cases if tinkering.
"I" would highly recommend a pressure gauge.
Found some nice pictures right here on AGN ( search can be great here):

I would go for turning the brass knurlded nut piece first, that may or may not be the correct way to go about it.
It really is that simple.
Please keep us posted! And if you could more pictures never hurt anyones understanding of how these things work.

The regulator is like an FX regulator. Ernest's video shows how. They adjust the same way. Also a little goes a lot. Pretty easy to adjust. Keep in mind the knurled brass piece will move easy, so if you don't want that to move...... Be careful because that will change your pressure as well as the piston stroke. See the o'ring under it? That is the space between brass and housing.
