Airgun High Pressure Air Hand Pump Basics : Umarex Airguns
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.ย. 2024
- A short video with Eydin Hansen on the basics of using a high pressure airgun hand pump for filling your airguns with air required for a PCP air rifle or air pistol to function. The key is to use steady strokes both up and down. Use your body's weight on the down stroke, especially when the air pressure is creating much resistance. Also give the pump a break. Pump for 5 minutes. Let it cool down for 15. Pump another 5. Keep your air gun air cylinder topped off so that future pumping won't require more than the one 5 minute session. Slow and steady wins the race!

It seems simple but many people are saying the hand pump sucks, at least on gauntlet reviews I've seen. This seems to counter that though I do note it isn't a gauntlet
I just received my pump today and my first PCP Diana Bandit Kit is on the way this week.😎
Thank you for showing how to safely use one of these
Our pleasure!
When my rifle is filled up. I proceed to vent the air from the hand pump. But, all the air escapes from the gun too. What do I do?
…detatch the airgun first, maybe?
@@VERY_TALL_MAN do the opposite of the video?
There must be something wrong with his pump, and if u were to disconnect without releasing the air it'd shoot the hose at you
How long does it take to fill with the hand pump?
You have to push the probe in a little farther than what’s shown in the video. If you don’t push it in all the way you hear air escaping .
Always make sure! Great tip.
@@UmarexAir I bought one today . My pump leaks air where the hose is attached below the gauge .
Brand new to PCP airguns. So keeping air inside the gun for a period of time won't hurt it? How should a PCP gun be stored for prolonged periods of time? Great video btw, just what I was looking for.
keeping it charged is actually usually a good thing for the rifle. it keeps moisture out of the cylinder and keeps the valves and o-rings properly seated and prevents shrinking, obviously NEVER leave the rifle loaded with pellets in the magazine or breach. gas ram/spring rifles should NEVER be left under tension
hope this helps
I googled it and it says u can leave your PCP gun loaded under tension for 1 to 2 months without any problems
We recommend to leave 1,000 psi in it for storage and be sure to have it locked away from unauthorized users and stored separately from ammo.
Best deal ever, I been a fan of Umarex before they were popular !!!!
Thanks! Thanks for watching.
I have a question if you want to add more air into your gun while you still have pressure are you able to do that by connecting your hand pump to the gun?
Yes. Good to keep it topped off. Just make sure unloaded and on safe and that it's always pointed in a safe direction.
Always good for a refresher!!👍👍
You got that right!
I called Umarex on cotton filter element replacement & they don't have it. I need a replacement filter.
I know where some desiccant packs are if that's what you're referring to. DM us via FB if you want a pack of those and mention the YT person said to reach out. You are correct, we don't have cotton elements for the handpump though.
Good contact appreciate it! Good shooting!
Appreciate it and the view.
First time pcp owner, got everything I need, could only afford a hand pump, I go to fill the gun and the air just comes. Out of the barrel, no access to a scuba tank or compressor, any help is greatly appreciated.
Don't know what you have but try cocking the gun first (unloaded), before pumping.
@@UmarexAir I did finally figure out what to do, I loaded 2 pellets into the barrel, pumped it up so it got some pressure and pulled the trigger multiple times, then it finally got enough pressure to seal the valve. Obviously be careful because it has 2 pellets in the barrel. But I FINALLY was able to get it filled and it works perfect. Hopefully this helps future owners. BTW I love umarex, I also own yalls legends grease gun. Plan on getting some more stuff soon.
My new pump does not work. It barely pumps any air. Sounds like something is restricting or blocking flow of air. I checked the one way valve. Still seems blocked.
Give our gun techs a call, (479) 646-4210 ext 7
I live in Florida very humid here if I do the hand pump in my house I guess I will avoid the humidity
It'll help, but even in dry conditions there's water in the air. Using a hand pump with a dryer pack is best.
I am asking anyone this question, If you have an Umarex Legends MP40 Semi/Full auto Submachine Gun? and if you think it is possible to build a system that would use either air handpumps, HPA tanks, and PCP for the legends MP40 to be fitted with a regulator, fitting, and air hose to go where the clips piercing plug, screw that goes into the Legends MP40's clip...To use compressed air instead of the CO2 air. ??? So as to not have to deal with cold air, freeze up's with CO2.
I just bought the origen and just after a few pumps the fill probe leaks where it is attached to the pump and then even after I release the pressure at the pump the fill probe is stuck in the gun ,I don't know what to do other than just trying to return the gun if you can give me some idea what the problem is thank you
I got the same problem
The fill probe should be attached to the fill hose, not the pump. Recommend calling a gun tech at 479-646-4210 ext. 7 Mon-Fri 8 to 5 Central time. If there is a link should still be under warranty and the gun tech can advise best next step to get it working properly.
Go out for 10min plinking and you need an ambulance
Even with a compressor, PCP guns are a dealbreaker, simply not convenient
Its like having a car that needs refueling every 3miles 😂😂😂😂
Right! That's why we just released the Komplete NCR (nitrogen cartridge rifle).
This is pretty cool
Thanks for watching.
is there a video showing the pump in use ?
th-cam.com/video/A8jzOA4b4M8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tRuuGU6oay4v9zV0
hello you will have a video of how to fill the rubber of a bicycle with that pump thanks
Probably not but thanks for watching.
nice do you have to pump it up every shot?
You don't have to pump every shot. PCP airguns have an air cylinder. You fill it and shoot. Typically if you're using a hand pump, you will want to shoot after every one to two magazines or 10-20 shots. This is because the more pressure you build in the air cylinder the harder it is to compress more air into it. Now, this all depends on what you're shooting too. If it's the AirSaber, then you'll probably want to pump it back up after six arrows.
@@UmarexAirhow many pumps after 6 arrows to get it back up to the max pressure?
Can I use this pump with my Diana stormrider
Do you ever lubricate those o-rings? and if so, with what?
Silicone oil or pellegun will work.
Silicone lube from autozone or something
hello, how many shots can we get with a full air tank?
hey can i use wd40 for lubrication on a pcp hand pump
Use 100% silicone oil.
@@UmarexAir thanks alot my pump started to frustrate me
whats the cost of that pump?thax
You can find hand pumps for $140 and up. The Umarex Hand Pump is around the $150 mark.
You can find them for 70
Pretty expensive for a hand pump.
Does this hand pump work for compressed air tanks
Probably be too hard to get it filled up all the way... if it worked.
If you can, you should sign up for a triathlon!
Does this work on the mcx virtus
Where do you find this package with the pump?
Maybe one day I'll get to use it
Most times a person that gets a hand pump has started saving for an electric compressor within 6 months.
I can’t figure out how to put the damn thing together I wish they had a full video
Similar: th-cam.com/video/ziLhDdzDpIs/w-d-xo.html
where do get this moisture filter seperately
Pyramyd, AirgunDepot, AirTanksForSale, etc.
How many pumps does it need to fill up an air tank like an AEA HP plus?
Sorry, not able to answer anything on the AEA line. Don't have one here.
I am a small stature gut at around 180lbs. Is it possible for me to get to 4000Lbs with a hand pump?
It is possible but you will feel it.
friend I need this same piece only the tip where I can buy it online the fill I tried for this same weapon, regards
Gotta call the Umarex service team: 479-646-4210 ext.7
If I go hunting what would be a decent backpack/ carrier for the rifle and the pump do you have any recommendations?
Maybe see if @RealAirGunHunting on TH-cam has a suggestion.
Get a 0.5cc paintball tank as outdoor filling station. You can get it filled at home. Spend more time hunting rather than elbow grease.
Can the cartridge be pumped using a regular air pump/compressor or does it have to be a pcp pump?
It needs to be a PCP pump.
@@UmarexAir what's the difference?
@@igetinya2 Airgun compressors are a lot higher pressure, 4500 psi.
I can’t get my new origin to pump up. It just leaks all the air back out like a valve is stuck or something. Please give me some advice!
Give our gun techs a call, (479) 646-4210 ext 7
Make sure the pump is screwed in correctly and that the connection is in all the way, (you should hear and feel a small click). If still leaks hit up umarex
How much ur PCP airgun hand pump
We're actually out right now. You can find one from our truster partners like PyramydAir, Airgunns of Arizona, AirgunDepot, Utah Airguns.
Anybody knows how many pumps require aproximate to fill up a rifle
150 strokes
This guy looks like Mike Judge's long lost brother
We'll tell him you say so!
What is the best cooling oil used to cool the pump?
You'll want to use a 100% silicone oil.
@@UmarexAir thank you brother
@@UmarexAir @UmarexAir I fill the pump cylinder completely with oil. Does it have any effect?
Can this cause a PCP air rifle to have Corrision ?
It comes with a moisture filter. That should keep it from corrosion.
Why didn't you show how long it takes? I think I know the answer.
Why? Cuz you like watching men do that motion? Why the hell would he have to show how long it takes. It's unneeded. Go take your fetish elsewhere. Maybe seek some therapy
That's what she said. 😆 In all seriousness, the Umarex Origin can be fully filled in about 5 minutes. PCP guns will vary due to air capacity of their tanks.
200 bars is all I need for now.
very informative review.... i am looking someone to donate old pcp pump, my friend made me a local hand made pcp and don't have a pump... just borrowing from a friend... thank for your generosity.. more power to your channel...
Will is fill the gamo coyote
Seek a hand pump that goes to 4,500 psi to cover just about any PCP airgun. We don't currently have a stand alone unit to offer.
i like your show. What I don't understand, ok I GET THE GUN for $375. now to use a lot I need to spend $500 to $1000, for a compresser . Doesn't anyone have more reasonable compresser.
Ours is about the cheapest one on the market right now, the hand pump works, it's not fun but it does work and its great for off the grid when you don't have electricity around.
Im looking at compressors from spritech and gx. Cost about a much as the gun and some connect to your car battery as well as the wall.
170 on ebay or Amazon
Got an Origin with pump for my oldest son and a Gamo Arrow for my second son. We have a lot of fun with back yard plinking and taking out the occasional starling or house sparrow.
I sometimes have trouble with the pump, where it's very difficult to raise, and very difficult to push down further than maybe an inch above bottom out. I'm a 6 ft 200 lb guy, and should be able to handle the pump no problem if it's working correctly. It's not been my experience that the pump and gun manometer matches. Usually the pump shows higher pressure. I assumed that's normal. Any suggestions?
This is old and I'm sorry for not responding. Beyond making sure there's ample lubrication we would have suggested a call to us. 479-646-4210 ext. 7
pumping is a major con compressors cost a fortune
"Hand pump basic how to."
Get a SCBA tank instead. You will be 1000% glad you did.
Gotta start somewhere. Where you filling that SCBA? We're looking forward to the Umarex ReadyAir for gun filling. To each his own.
@@UmarexAir Any local dive shop lol. I drive 30min in Central TX no ocean for 4hrs. Dive shops are everywhere
Paintball shops and amigas will also fill them
@@bjhall3394
My local scuba shop (35 minutes from my house) went from $10 up to $20 for a top off.
Hey, I have no idea of his overhead.
That's his business if he wants to charge that, I'm not paying it! F that!
Adios Dude!
I have my own stuff now and I couldn't be happier!
All the best to him.
Cool I want a 25cal pcp but have to wait till tax season only have a gas ram right now 22cal and it's a lot of fun but really want a pcp
That pump wasn't even properly lubed, look how hard it move.
The hand punp that comes with origin is big time junk the failure rate is huge in our face book page people are upset and beginners are discouraged the rifle is good though
Thanks for the comment. The issue was identified and we're sorry to those that experienced it. Next production runs coming in have this addressed. Please do encourage everyone with the issue to contact us before the warranty is up. Thanks for your patience.
What is the issue? My issue is that the pump is hard to pull and push down after 8 pumps. Tried calling Umarex but no one answered. I emailed but no response yet.
My pump literally broke day one. I'm trying to figure out how to fix it 😂
Pump has a one year warranty. Give us a call: 479-646-4210 ext. 7. Monday through Friday. 8 to 5 Central Time.
I figured it out a piece of rubber from the handle fell inside the ball value at the top. Pretty easy to fix but a stupid pain in the ass
To bad it is not ambidextrous, I am blind in my right eye!
Sorry to hear this. =(
I have been using an air compressor. So after my daughter & I are doing playing around on cars.
So no need to buy those overpriced pump & ac pump.
Are you only shooting 5 feet? A lot of difference between 90psi and 4000psi.
WARNING save your money I’m on my third warranty product replacement in six months. They will not refund my money and expect me to keep paying shipping on returning their faulty junk products. I will never buy another item from them again.
So are you having a problem with the hand pump, because our service logs do not show any communication from you on this item?
5 min wasted
Thanks for your patronage.
Good video
I’ll sub you
Many thanks. Appreciate that.
