5 years running and this is still the best and most comprehensive guide i've come across, absolutely brilliant in every way. Downloaded all 3 parts to my computer should RUclips ever go down :)
Hi, Thank you for your kind comments - I hope that this series of videos will be of help when the time comes to service your gun. You may enjoy one of my other RUclips channels in which I review pistols, pellets etc. Here is a link to a budget pellet I tested in the HW100 with surprisingly good results; ruclips.net/video/669_SOr5UX0/видео.htmlsi=oRVtXrx-ZUK70D7P All the best.
Hi, I am all for cutting out the middle man to achieve best value. I did not send my gun to Hull for servicing because of the cost and the demand that I sent it via a Registered Firearms Dealer. Using an RFD is clearly not necessary for a non-FAC gun. See the SERVICING tab on the www.hw100tuning.co.uk website for details of the steps needed for sending guns for servicing via the Post Office. All the best, Martin
Hi Shaun, If you use the slider bar to scroll through the video to the 30:10 second mark you will see me start to re-assemble the belleville washer set. I put a diagram of washer order on the screen using bracket symbols to indicate the curves in the washers. The washer order is - ( ( ) ) ( ( ) ) ( ( ) ) ( ( ) ) Hope that this helps. Please watch the other Part 2 and Part 3 videos to see the assembly and testing. All the best, Martin
Great great blogs you explain so well we'll explaining every thing you doing if you want a gamo boxer to service you can have mine and I will pay I been playing with the power some ti. Es hitting 700 fps 15 pounds but I think it's mad a mess of the hammer spring and some seals.
I had to heat my block to remove the brass fitting (it had never moved in the 19 years of me owning it). I had to use a blowlamp as i was scared of shearing the brass with the force i was having to apply. After gentle heating it came out with MUCH less effort.
Hi, I am so glad that you found these videos helpful. My HW100 is still giving me great pleasure. It has been lovely to be able to get out and start shooting again after so long. All the best, Martin
When i replaced the o rings on the main inlet valve,and screwed,the air tank back on my gauge is not in the same place i.e. it is half a turn out ,do i take it back off, and tighten,an extra half turn, but i don't want to strip the threads.
Hi Jeff, You are right to be cautious and not over-tighten. The cylinder doesn't need to be gorilla tight. The small o-ring 2665 on the end of the Main Inlet Valve ensures the seal. I don't have the Weihrauch cylinder on my HW100. But I am struggling to understand how your gauge has ended up half a turn out. I think I would remove the cylinder and the MIV. Then screw in the cylinder, only till firm, and see if the gauge is in the correct orientation. Referring to diagram: www.hw100tuning.com/exploded_diagram_new.htm If the gauge looks correct then the cylinder could be bottoming out on the MIV. Check that the o-ring 2674b is correctly seated. Check that the threaded sleeve 2673 is screwed tightly into the block (it may have moved when you unscrewed the MIV). Check that the MIV is assembled correctly. Refit the MIV and tighten firmly. Refit the cylinder. Hope the above helps. All the best, Martin
Hi Martin thank you again just looked at my rifle and the ball bearing is in the test port and there is no grub screw holding the ball bearing in there is only a grub screw on the other hole next to the port that makes sense
Hi Matt, I am sorry if my video has added to the confusion. The pressure test port is right next to thread hole for the stock mounting screw. The pressure test port is towards the barrel end of the block. In the video you will see me remove the the pressure test port grub screw at 16:48 but I then stupidly put the replacement pressure test port plug into the stock mounting hole. I put some text on the screen to highlight this mistake and of course I rectified it. Please watch this section of the video again carefully to make sure that I have not accidentally mislead you. By the way, if you are going to be connecting a pressure gauge several times while tuning the gun setup it is a good idea to get the hw100tuning.co.uk replacement pressure test port plug which replaces the ball bearing and grub screw. All the best, Martin
Morning Martin thank you very much for clearing that up just did a nutshell so where the ball bearing is in that port should really be a grub screw holding it in
@@blarza007 Hi Matt, Yes - see the HW100 exploded diagram at www.hwtuning.co.uk/exploded_diagram_new.htm. The test port threaded hole should have the small O-ring (2677), ball bearing (2675) and grub screw (2676) tightened down to seal the port. Hope that this helps. All the best, Martin
Hi, many thanks, amazing 3 videos you done here. It will definitely help me thank you. I have a leak which air comes from the pin hole at the top of the gas canister on HW 100. I've changed the little O ring and cleaned inside but it's still coming from that little pin sized hole when I fill it up with gas. Any thoughts much appreciated 🙏
Hi Craig, Apologies for the slow response. Sorry to hear that you are having problems with your HW100. Do you mean that air is escaping from the pin hole that is located on the underside of the regulator section of the action when it is removed from the stock? You mention that you have changed the small o-ring and I think that you mean the o-ring on the brass inlet valve. The next easy thing to do is to change the o-ring inside the brass inlet valve. See my Part 3 video. But before doing any work on your HW100 be sure that you remove the cylinder first then cock and fire the gun several times to ensure that it is completely depressurised. All the best, Martin
@@MartinHealy Hi Martin thank you for that, much appreciated. Yes the problem was the O ring on the Brass regulator that houses the gas gauge attached by the 5mm Allan key. Everyday is a learning day!. Thank you for that and all the rest of your advice. Many thanks, Craig
Hi Ravindra, I only make these videos when I am carrying out repairs or service on my guns. I believe in the motto 'if it ain't broke don't fix it'. However, when the time comes I will continue to make videos. The next video is likely to be the strip down and seal replacement on my Webley Raider 10. In the meantime check out my pistol and pellet reviews on another of my channels - here is a budget pellet range testing session that delivered surprisingly good results - ruclips.net/video/669_SOr5UX0/видео.htmlsi=yTNXGpPg0qptmkBB All the best, Martin
hello please I have a problem with my hw100 pcp rifle I have a non-filter barrel a manter silencer I can't take it off it's fixed I don't know with what
Hi Matouk, I am not sure that I understand the issue you have but I think that you are not able to remove the silencer. If your HW100 has a standard Weihrauch barrel then it will have a 1/2" threaded muzzle end. So if you firmly grip the barrel the silencer should unscrew counter-clockwise (turn left when viewed from the muzzle). Please ensure that the gun has no pellets in it and that it is de-cocked before doing any maintenance on your HW100. Perhaps someone has added some Loctite thread locker? If red high strength (permanent) thread locker has been used then it can be extremely hard to separate parts. The usual method used is to apply heat from a gas torch to the joint area but of course you can't do that in this case. So if the silencer does not unscrew then I would try clamping the barrel in a vice protected by soft jaws then fixing a strap wrench to the silencer to add leverage and again try to unscrew the silencer. If the above methods fail then you may have to accept that the silencer is permanently attached and live with it. When you are cleaning the barrel slip a drinking straw into the silencer and this will allow you to feed the pull cord through the silencer and down the barrel to the breech. Without the drinking straw inserted the pull cord will just snag on the silencer baffles. All the best, Martin
you have helped me so much thank you so much. great filming. keep it going. ill watch the other 2 videos then ill ask my questions thanks phil yorkshire
Hi Phil, You're welcome. Hope that the videos help you out. I enjoyed the the rebuild process overall but it was a little frustrating at times. Still I showed it warts and all to help everyone learn a little. All the best, Martin
Hi there great video could you please tell me when I took my rifle apart a small ball bearing fell out any ideas where it's come from what part of the rifle the breach thank you Matt
Hi Matt, The ball bearing probably came from inside the regulator pressure test port (see this video at 16:49). Another possibility is that it came from inside the brass inlet valve (see this video at 13:05). Please also see the Part2 and Part3 videos in this series to see the rebuild and testing including the inlet valve. All the best, Martin
Hi Masoud, I am not sure but I think that you are asking what material hardness to choose for the O-rings. Some suppliers offer upgraded material for some of the O-rings that are more durable and therefore have a longer life. I would always recommend choosing the upgraded materials. In these videos I showed that I used a full service kit of O-rings from HW100Tuning. I recommend this supplier simply because they offer a kit of O-rings that is individually bagged and labelled and that makes it easier. They will post overseas and their prices are very competitive. hw100tuning.co.uk/shop/ols/products/full-service-seal-kit I would recommend having a good look at all the items in their shop. For example you may need a pressure gauge to enable you to set the regulator pressure. All the best, Martin
Hello,been watching your video about rgulator service,but came across a problem,have hw 100 5.5 FAC version 2013 i think with 16 washers in regulator 10 washers are 11.9mm,6 washers are 12.35 mm,they mixed up and i really need stack order,can u possibely help with it,what kind,how many of them u have inside,im pretty clueless as no diagram anywhere,thx in forward...
@@MartinHealy Thank you on truly detailed answer and effort,i presume the rifle came with those washers,and the difference in size is minor maybe not noticable for most people its 0.4mm in diameter,i will put them in order of for as you suggested as i came across same stack order online on most Weihrauch owners,since the airgun was bought as FAC version originally i need to have around 110 bar of pressure,so if the stack order suits the desired pressure it will probably be alright,if not will buy those beleville washers 12 pcs,thank you once more for an extensive answer.
Hi, Yes the new O-rings (except the polyurethane seal) need to be lubed with Molykote 111. If you would like to watch Part 2 and Part 3 of this series of videos I fit the new seals, reassemble and test the gun. Click on the links embedded at the very end of this Part 1 video. If you purchase a seal kit from HW100 Tuning they include a little bag of Molykote 111 - see the description above for a link. All the best, Martin
Hi Pratik, There are several likely places that the HW100 can leak. The first (simplest) place to check is the Main Inlet Valve (A) 2665. Unscrew the air cylinder to get to this small O-ring. If you are replacing this seal go for the upgraded polyurethane seal which is much more durable (www.hw100tuning.co.uk/product/polyurethane_seals. If you have an original HW100 cylinder the internal seal may need replacing. I don't have the HW100 cylinder so I haven't had to do this myself and I gather that some special tools are/may be needed (www.hw100tuning.co.uk/Air_Cylinder_Ends_Removal_Kit/p2174806_18670926.aspx). If these easier options don't fix the problem then a strip down will be needed. The firing valve seal 2655D (polyurethane) is another possible cause. I would recommend the major seal kit (www.hw100tuning.co.uk/product/seal_kit) if you are opening the regulator side of the gun. Above all please, please be safe. Never work on the gun with the cylinder attached and pressurised. Depressurise the cylinder before opening. All the best, Martin
Hi, The short answer is no there should not be moisture inside the regulator. The air in dive tanks is very dry. I suspect that your gun has probably been filled via a hand pump. If the hand pump is operated in a high humidity environment this could account for the moisture you have found. I personally only ever fill from dive tanks that are filled at dive centres and are therefore certified as breathing air. I hope this info helps. Regards, Martin
@@MartinHealy thanks for replying so fast Martin.i wouldn't describe the tiny amount of residue that I found as water but just so I'm not confused,should the washers in the reg be completely dry.im assuming yes!I fill my rifle up with a divers bottle and that is done at my local rifle club.is there anyway moisture could be getting into my bottle?sorry to make this long winded but I'm suffering accuracy issues that don't lie with the barrel(100% Not the barrel).I've worked from the barrel seal down to the reg now and found a small bit of residue,could this cause me any accuracy issues?
Hi, I would advise to carefully clean the Belleville washers and the regulator block then apply a thin film of light oil by wiping each washer on a cloth to which oil has been applied. I used GT85 because it also contains PTFE. I recommend using a worn out T-shirt as the cleaning cloth if you do not have any lint-free cleaning cloths. After a T-shirt has been through the wash dozens of times it has shed most of the loose short fibres. Take great care to assemble the stack of Belleville washer s in the sequence shown in my videos. There are many factors that could cause inconsistent accuracy. Since you have the regulator block partially stripped I would suggest that you purchase a major service kit and a regulator pressure gauge from www.hw100tuning.co.uk and change all the O-rings - including the Main Inlet Valve (internal and external) since this is another cause of inconsistent regulator pressure - which will of course translate into poor accuracy. After completing the regulator service, repeated dry firing with the gauge attached will highlight it if the regulator pressure is varying significantly from shot to shot. Use www.hw100tuning.co.uk/page/guides and click on Regulator Tuning to access the Weihrauch Owners Club info on all aspects of repairing and tuning your gun. If the regulator block service does not fix your accuracy issues then move on to cleaning and degreasing the hammer assembly. Persevere. All the best, Martin
@@MartinHealy thanks again Martin.i will persevere like you say.im sort of enjoying the process as I am learning because of it.hopefully proves fruitful for me.thanks again.
Hi Martin . . . another question. When you remove the air cylinder, does this remove pressure from all areas within the block?? ie - if you remove the cylinder, can you then remove the screw and ball from the pressure test port without 90 bar bursting out?? I assume this is the case but if so, is the pressure equalised to atmospheric throughout? I haven't tested my HW100 recently but have vague memories of removing the cylinder, cocking and dry firing and there was still pressure inside it but surely this must be wrong? - I will have to try it again some time
Hi, I haven't specifically tested for this case but I would expect the block to depressurise when the cylinder is removed because the regulator piston will (should!) be driven forward by the Belleville washers and the Main Inlet Valve will open. But never trust to luck. Always treat a gun as though it is loaded so, even after removing the cylinder, point it in a safe direction and dry fire before doing any work on it or cleaning. By the way if you are going to be opening the pressure test port I show a little tip in the video about using a powerful magnet to draw the ball out. If you are planning to do some serious experimenting with different regulator pressures then would also recommend replacing the original ball valve with the brass plug from hw100tuning.co.uk. All the best, Martin
Hi, No, I would say that the HW100 is an old but tried and tested design that is still in production. The HW100 has a beautiful simplicity in the design and fantastic production quality. The regulator does have a lot of parts and can be a little daunting but if you adopt a disciplined methodical approach to servicing the HW100 it can be achieved by a reasonably practical person. If you do ever need to service the HW100 yourself then I would advise that you purchase a full kit of seals and lube from a trusted supplier such as www.hw100tuning.co.uk since having a kit of individually labelled service parts greatly simplifies the work. All the best, Martin
hello I followed all the videos you put online you helped a lot of people to repair their own pcp for that thank you very much here is my problem I bought a PCP recently a HW 100tk canon 41 cm there is 16 joules my problem when I bought it in France I asked for a 35 joules 60 cm gun they sent me the 100tk 16 joules instead. because I live in Algeria I can't make a return otherwise it will cost me very very expensive in money. Given that I shoot at disciplines very far I wanted to raise it to 25 joules so please if you can help me raise it to 25 joules tell me which part I'm going to change because here at home in Algeria there is no power limit you can have a PCP of 150 joules so once again if he please if you can tell me which part changed i will buy them and thanks for listening to me again thanks for all you do
hello thank you for answering me it's fast it's nice of you and thank you for the advice you gave me but the problem I can't sell the law here in Algeria and clear to sell it was necessary wait 3 years since I bought this rifle it's been a year you have to wait another 2 years to sell it for anti-burglary it is not it it is free that means that I can adjust the spring of the hammer as I do you want is there no other parts to change only the setting it's a good PCP small handy better than the 60cm in the barrel but the disadvantage for the 41 cm it has a limited distance so if I can adjust how you told me is it possible I adjust it to how much please are there other pieces to buy again thank you very much and I apologize I I took some time from you thank you  
Hello Mr.Martin, when I shoot my 100, there comes a puff of air from under the barrel, the place where it goes in.Does this mean it the whole regulator unit needs service?
Hi Eyad, I am not sure where the air is escaping from when you fire the gun. The first thing I would do is to remove the stock from the gun. Then try to make absolutely sure that you understand where the air comes out. You could use strips of cotton wool to test where the air exits. Let me know what you find. If the air only leaks when the gun is fired then it is possible that the barrel is loose. Remove the cylinder to gain access to the grub screw 2679 and check that it is absolutely tight. If your checks confirm that the leak is air escaping from where the barrel enters the block and the 2679 is tight then it could be the Barrel Breech Seal 2680. The HW100 Tuning website has good diagrams and lots of info and guides. They will ship seal kits overseas.www.hw100tuning.co.uk/page/exploded_diagram If you do not shoot the HW100 for a few weeks does the cylinder pressure drop (it should remain constant)? All the best, Martin
Hello Mr.Martin , After following your advice , I carried out a meticulous check on my 100.The problem is really funny after discovering it.After I removed the shroud , the problem disappeared.The causing air came out from the shroud holes at the back.Removing and reinstalling it ,things got clear for me. The 100 operated very fine.This happened due to me being inexperienced with its mechanics lol. Again thank you a lot for your quick help.
Hi Martin Hw100 in 22 change main inlet valve seal spring and ball bearing power still over 9ftlbs would new seals alter the power any help would be grateful cheers Alf..
Hi Alf, I sent a reply to your comment on Part 2 of this series so I am pasting it here again in case you didn't see it: There are a number of factors that could be causing the low muzzle energy. Assuming that you haven't recently changed the pellets you are using then other possibilities are that the regulator pressure is low (below the 95-100BAR I would expect), or possibly low hammer spring pressure or a combination of factors. I would recommend that you start the diagnosis by obtaining a pressure gauge to measure the regulator pressure. If the regulator pressure is significantly low then a regulator service will be required. If however, the regulator pressure is consistent from shot to shot and the pressure is in the 95-100BAR range then it is likely that the hammer spring needs adjusting and or the hammer assembly needs degreasing/cleaning and adjusting. You will see me use the regulator pressure gauge in Part 3 of this video series. I am also assuming that you serviced the brass inlet valve as you see me do In Part 3 from the 22 minute point. Did you change the seal inside the brass inlet valve? Hope that this helps. All the best, Martin
@@alfredhanley1691 Hi Alf, If you do want to buy a regulator pressure gauge - I got mine from and the full Oring kit from HW100 Tuning here is a link: hw100tuning.co.uk/shop All the best, Martin
Hello Martin, I need your advice! I've changed some O-Rings of my Hw100 and everything worked perfect, cause of your Video, thank you for that. But last week my Hw100 keeps leaking. I fixed it quickly, O-Ring 2658 broke. So I got a new one in, but it is still leaking, every O-Ring is fine. It leaks from 200 bar and stops at 130bar, which is strange cause my regulator is set to 90 bar. Did you have those issues? Sorry for my english and greetings from Germany 😁
Hi Seepel, I am happy to try to help but you will appreciate that without the gun in my hands it is hard to narrow down the cause of the leak. So I can only offer some general tips and hints. I am not sure which Orings you have already replaced. Oring 2568 - if you have used the original Weihrauch specification then these Orings are crushed when the breech plug/block are mated and need to be replaced each time the block is opened. The replacement new specification Oring 2568 are a narrower section and often can be reused. One of the most common cause of slow leaks is the small Oring 2665 on the Main Inlet Valve. Remove the air cylinder and you can then see Oring 2665 on the end of the brass inlet valve. I would recommend changing this Oring and using an upgraded polyurethane Oring because they are more durable. Fill the cylinder to 200BAR and leave it off the gun for several days and keep monitoring the cylinder pressure. The original Weihrauch cylinder has a valve at each end and the air pressure should remain constant. If the pressure drops while the cylinder is off the gun then the cylinder needs to be serviced. I use an aftermarket A&M cylinder so I have never had to service the Weihrauch cylinder. If you need to service the cylinder exercise extreme caution and ensure that the cylinder is absolutely completely empty. There is a useful guide to opening the cylinder on www.hw100tuning.co.uk/ They also sell all the Orings and tools you may need. They are operating during Covid-19 and will post to Germany. If the above does not fix the leak then you need to return to the regulator block and carry out the full service as in my videos. I would recommend the major service kit of Orings from HW100tuning because it is a simple way to get a full kit of quality Orings that are all individually bagged. I don't have any affiliation to this company but I have found them to be a good company to deal with. Hope that this information helps. Regards, Martin
@@Incognito1-1 Thanks for your help, I already ordered the O-Ring Set months ago :) I changed some Orings but not all of them, my hw100 is sealed. So today I took my HW100 apart to see if the O-Ring 2658 is damaged. It is, but I have several other 12x1mm Orings. Instead of putting the O-Ring over this little neck on the breech block(2681) and pushing it back in again, I tried to place the Oring in the groove on the valve housing. I tried my best to keep it center while pushing the breech block in, so I hope this will keep the Oring from breaking
Hi Pratik, I cannot advise that you attempt to increase the power above that set by the manufacturer. In the UK the power is limited to sub 12 ftlbs without a Firearms Certificate (FAC). The muzzle energy of the gun is determined by a number of factors - the regulated air pressure, the firing valve timing, the transfer port size, the pellet weight etc. So simply increasing the regulator pressure may not achieve your goal. You should also consider that there are component differences between the low and high power versions of the HW100 - the regulator piston, Belleville washers etc. I would encourage you to question why you feel that you need more power. If you are hunting and would like to increase the range at which you can shoot game successfully then perhaps you could simply improve your stalking and concealment techniques to enable you to get closer to the game. Shot placement is in my opinion much more important than muzzle energy. Regards, Martin
Hai, Mohon maaf atas slow respon ini. Dalam video HW100 Anda akan melihat bahwa saya menggunakan kit lengkap Orings dari perusahaan Inggris: hw100tuning.co.uk Saya merekomendasikan perusahaan ini karena mereka mengirim Orings satu per satu dengan label yang sangat jelas yang membuat hidup lebih mudah dan harganya bagus. Situs web di atas juga memiliki banyak panduan bermanfaat gratis. Mereka akan mengirim surat ke luar negeri sehingga mungkin dapat membantu Anda. Jika Anda merasa menggunakan bahasa Inggris sebagai tantangan maka ingatlah untuk menggunakan Google Translate (seperti saya sekarang). Saya berharap Anda sukses. Semua yang terbaik, Martin
Hi, Thanks for the tip. I did resort to puncturing some of the seals with a pin but I would prefer to avoid this method if at all possible because of the risk of scratching the metal surfaces and causing leaks or wear on the new seal. Regards, Martin
Seems modern air rifle don't last long before your paying for services or repair. Just like modern cars they get too complicated and break down regularly. The only thing they got going for them is they look good......... well some do.
Hi Pete, I take your point about the complexity and potential for necessary maintenance. However, the up side is that PCP air rifles are wonderfully consistent and accurate. In fact rifles such as a well setup HW100 perform so accurately that the weak link is the guy or girl on the trigger. All the best, Martin
Thanks Martin for the reply and I do agree with you. But you see so many rifles not very old having problems and some costing over £2000 plus. I had a BSA Meteor when I was 18 costing £25 second hand but alas we all get old and being a pensioner now this sport is well out of my league. Take care happy shooting.
@@petemason57 Hi Pete, There are still some shooting bargains out there. Have you checked out any reviews for the CP1 and CP2 CO2 guns? I have got both of these and they are basic but huge fun. Provided that you accept them as cheap Chinese made guns and are prepared to do a little fettling yourself then they can be a good buy. All the best, Martin
Hi Martin, unfortunately living on an estate with small garden it's not the place for plinking lol. Just spent £3000 las month on new pc, Microwave and central heating boiler so as I said this hobby will be one I can only follow on the internet. I do have pigeon problems here but use a Chinese made Slingshot rifle F (fettled by me) lol. Works well now but with only clay shot. Maybe in next life and by then it will be lasers lol. Take care
Hi Jefry, The audio is now back on all 3 of the videos in this series on the HW100. When I received your message I checked the Part 1 video on my mobile and yes the audio was just a quiet crackling noise. Even stranger it was the same on Parts 2 and 3. All of these videos had decent audio so I was intrigued and couldn't find any issues with any of the other videos that I sampled on my channel. However, I have now just checked on my PC and the audio was OK and when I checked on my mobile the audio was also back. So I can only put it down to a temporary RUclips issue but all is now well. Thanks again for bringing this issue to my attention. All the best, Martin
Absolutely cringing at this butcher and his seemingly endless range of allen keys which he uses for just about everything . Right first off ,never i repeat never ever use any sort of metal implement to prise out seals o-rings or p.t.f.e. guides etc ,remember that thee are PRECISION instruments and any sort of minor scratch or scoring (even those invisible to the naked eye )of any sealed surfaces will almost certainly result in a compromised seal which will never be properly air tight . ALWAYS use either a wooden or softish plastic tool for seal removal . Next pre-assembly cleaning ,it is imperative that all recesses and machined grooves to accept seals etc are meticulously clean ,this is best achieved by using something like methalayted sprits along with cotton buds to get into difficult to access areas ,a ready supply of kitchen paper is invaluable also . Apart from this he does at least show how to disassemble the gun in the correct order .
Hi Jeg, I agree with the point you make about avoiding scratching seal area surfaces and the use of wooden tools (such as toothpicks) to remove seals. I make this point many times during this series of videos on the HW100. On the subject of cleaning - again we agree on the need for very thorough cleaning before reassembly. However I don't agree that cotton buds are a particularly good choice because they shed long cotton fibres. In these videos I recommend using fabric from an old T-shirt that has been washed dozens of times because this fabric will have shed all the loose fibres during the repeated washings and because it is a source of cleaning cloth that everyone will have available. In the videos I go on to say that after cleaning with the T-shirt fabric I then clean all surfaces again using special 'lint-free' cleaning cloth squares that are made for one time use. All the best, Martin

All the best, Martin
I had to heat my block to remove the brass fitting (it had never moved in the 19 years of me owning it). I had to use a blowlamp as i was scared of shearing the brass with the force i was having to apply. After gentle heating it came out with MUCH less effort.
Brilliant work Martin!! thank you
Hi, I am so glad that you found these videos helpful. My HW100 is still giving me great pleasure. It has been lovely to be able to get out and start shooting again after so long.

When i replaced the o rings on the main inlet valve,and screwed,the air tank back on my gauge is not in the same place i.e. it is half a turn out ,do i take it back off, and tighten,an extra half turn, but i don't want to strip the threads.
Hi Jeff, You are right to be cautious and not over-tighten. The cylinder doesn't need to be gorilla tight. The small o-ring 2665 on the end of the Main Inlet Valve ensures the seal. I don't have the Weihrauch cylinder on my HW100. But I am struggling to understand how your gauge has ended up half a turn out. I think I would remove the cylinder and the MIV. Then screw in the cylinder, only till firm, and see if the gauge is in the correct orientation.
Referring to diagram: www.hw100tuning.com/exploded_diagram_new.htm
If the gauge looks correct then the cylinder could be bottoming out on the MIV. Check that the o-ring 2674b is correctly seated. Check that the threaded sleeve 2673 is screwed tightly into the block (it may have moved when you unscrewed the MIV). Check that the MIV is assembled correctly. Refit the MIV and tighten firmly. Refit the cylinder.
Hope the above helps. All the best, Martin
Hi Martin thank you again just looked at my rifle and the ball bearing is in the test port and there is no grub screw holding the ball bearing in there is only a grub screw on the other hole next to the port that makes sense
Hi Matt, I am sorry if my video has added to the confusion. The pressure test port is right next to thread hole for the stock mounting screw. The pressure test port is towards the barrel end of the block. In the video you will see me remove the the pressure test port grub screw at 16:48 but I then stupidly put the replacement pressure test port plug into the stock mounting hole. I put some text on the screen to highlight this mistake and of course I rectified it. Please watch this section of the video again carefully to make sure that I have not accidentally mislead you. By the way, if you are going to be connecting a pressure gauge several times while tuning the gun setup it is a good idea to get the hw100tuning.co.uk replacement pressure test port plug which replaces the ball bearing and grub screw.
All the best, Martin
Morning Martin thank you very much for clearing that up just did a nutshell so where the ball bearing is in that port should really be a grub screw holding it in
@@blarza007 Hi Matt, Yes - see the HW100 exploded diagram at www.hwtuning.co.uk/exploded_diagram_new.htm. The test port threaded hole should have the small O-ring (2677), ball bearing (2675) and grub screw (2676) tightened down to seal the port. Hope that this helps.
All the best, Martin
Hi, many thanks, amazing 3 videos you done here.
It will definitely help me thank you.
I have a leak which air comes from the pin hole at the top of the gas canister on HW 100.
I've changed the little O ring and cleaned inside but it's still coming from that little pin sized hole when I fill it up with gas.
Any thoughts much appreciated 🙏
Hi Craig, Apologies for the slow response. Sorry to hear that you are having problems with your HW100. Do you mean that air is escaping from the pin hole that is located on the underside of the regulator section of the action when it is removed from the stock?
You mention that you have changed the small o-ring and I think that you mean the o-ring on the brass inlet valve. The next easy thing to do is to change the o-ring inside the brass inlet valve. See my Part 3 video. But before doing any work on your HW100 be sure that you remove the cylinder first then cock and fire the gun several times to ensure that it is completely depressurised.
All the best, Martin
@@MartinHealy Hi Martin thank you for that, much appreciated.
Yes the problem was the O ring on the Brass regulator that houses the gas gauge attached by the 5mm Allan key.
Everyday is a learning day!. Thank you for that and all the rest of your advice.
Many thanks,
Craig
Hi, Martin Kt 100 only putting out 9Ftlbs no leaks doe,s the power come from the main block were the seals. Are thankyou for any information...Alf...
Many thanks for the video. Your time and effort is much appreciated..
Hi Martin, as discribed in your Video, when will we see the part 4 of you servicing the trigger assembly and the probe Oring replacement ? Cheers.
Hi Ravindra, I only make these videos when I am carrying out repairs or service on my guns. I believe in the motto 'if it ain't broke don't fix it'. However, when the time comes I will continue to make videos. The next video is likely to be the strip down and seal replacement on my Webley Raider 10. In the meantime check out my pistol and pellet reviews on another of my channels - here is a budget pellet range testing session that delivered surprisingly good results - ruclips.net/video/669_SOr5UX0/видео.htmlsi=yTNXGpPg0qptmkBB

Hi Martin,
Thank you for the reply.
All the best.
hello please I have a problem with my hw100 pcp rifle I have a non-filter barrel a manter silencer I can't take it off it's fixed I don't know with what
Hi Matouk, I am not sure that I understand the issue you have but I think that you are not able to remove the silencer. If your HW100 has a standard Weihrauch barrel then it will have a 1/2" threaded muzzle end. So if you firmly grip the barrel the silencer should unscrew counter-clockwise (turn left when viewed from the muzzle). Please ensure that the gun has no pellets in it and that it is de-cocked before doing any maintenance on your HW100.
Perhaps someone has added some Loctite thread locker? If red high strength (permanent) thread locker has been used then it can be extremely hard to separate parts. The usual method used is to apply heat from a gas torch to the joint area but of course you can't do that in this case. So if the silencer does not unscrew then I would try clamping the barrel in a vice protected by soft jaws then fixing a strap wrench to the silencer to add leverage and again try to unscrew the silencer.
If the above methods fail then you may have to accept that the silencer is permanently attached and live with it. When you are cleaning the barrel slip a drinking straw into the silencer and this will allow you to feed the pull cord through the silencer and down the barrel to the breech. Without the drinking straw inserted the pull cord will just snag on the silencer baffles.
All the best, Martin
Thankyou for you for a excellent video and for helping me out
you have helped me so much thank you so much. great filming. keep it going. ill watch the other 2 videos then ill ask my questions thanks phil yorkshire
Hi Phil,
You're welcome. Hope that the videos help you out. I enjoyed the the rebuild process overall but it was a little frustrating at times. Still I showed it warts and all to help everyone learn a little.
All the best, Martin
Thank you for sharing this
Hi there great video could you please tell me when I took my rifle apart a small ball bearing fell out any ideas where it's come from what part of the rifle the breach thank you Matt
Hi Matt,
The ball bearing probably came from inside the regulator pressure test port (see this video at 16:49).
Another possibility is that it came from inside the brass inlet valve (see this video at 13:05).
Please also see the Part2 and Part3 videos in this series to see the rebuild and testing including the inlet valve.
All the best, Martin
Many thanks Martin
Brilliant diagram thank you you for your time Martin
Hello, good morning, what is the material of the O-Weirch 100?
Hi Masoud, I am not sure but I think that you are asking what material hardness to choose for the O-rings. Some suppliers offer upgraded material for some of the O-rings that are more durable and therefore have a longer life. I would always recommend choosing the upgraded materials. In these videos I showed that I used a full service kit of O-rings from HW100Tuning. I recommend this supplier simply because they offer a kit of O-rings that is individually bagged and labelled and that makes it easier. They will post overseas and their prices are very competitive.
hw100tuning.co.uk/shop/ols/products/full-service-seal-kit
I would recommend having a good look at all the items in their shop. For example you may need a pressure gauge to enable you to set the regulator pressure.
All the best, Martin
@@Incognito1-1 Thank you
Please also watch the next 2 videos - Part 2 and - Part 3 for the full strip down, rebuild and testing of the HW100 regulator.
Hello,been watching your video about rgulator service,but came across a problem,have hw 100 5.5 FAC version 2013 i think with 16 washers in regulator 10 washers are 11.9mm,6 washers are 12.35 mm,they mixed up and i really need stack order,can u possibely help with it,what kind,how many of them u have inside,im pretty clueless as no diagram anywhere,thx in forward...
@@MartinHealy Thank you on truly detailed answer and effort,i presume the rifle came with those washers,and the difference in size is minor maybe not noticable for most people its 0.4mm in diameter,i will put them in order of for as you suggested as i came across same stack order online on most Weihrauch owners,since the airgun was bought as FAC version originally i need to have around 110 bar of pressure,so if the stack order suits the desired pressure it will probably be alright,if not will buy those beleville washers 12 pcs,thank you once more for an extensive answer.
Yep nice work, very helpful Thanks 4 sharing..
Do we need to put any silicon oil/grease to the new O-ring when assemble the back together?
Hi, Yes the new O-rings (except the polyurethane seal) need to be lubed with Molykote 111. If you would like to watch Part 2 and Part 3 of this series of videos I fit the new seals, reassemble and test the gun. Click on the links embedded at the very end of this Part 1 video. If you purchase a seal kit from HW100 Tuning they include a little bag of Molykote 111 - see the description above for a link.
All the best, Martin
superb video of hw 100
Hi Pratik, Thanks - all the best, Martin
hi martin there is a slow leak developed in my hw100, what should i do??
Hi Pratik, There are several likely places that the HW100 can leak. The first (simplest) place to check is the Main Inlet Valve (A) 2665. Unscrew the air cylinder to get to this small O-ring. If you are replacing this seal go for the upgraded polyurethane seal which is much more durable (www.hw100tuning.co.uk/product/polyurethane_seals. If you have an original HW100 cylinder the internal seal may need replacing. I don't have the HW100 cylinder so I haven't had to do this myself and I gather that some special tools are/may be needed (www.hw100tuning.co.uk/Air_Cylinder_Ends_Removal_Kit/p2174806_18670926.aspx).
If these easier options don't fix the problem then a strip down will be needed. The firing valve seal 2655D (polyurethane) is another possible cause. I would recommend the major seal kit (www.hw100tuning.co.uk/product/seal_kit) if you are opening the regulator side of the gun.
Above all please, please be safe. Never work on the gun with the cylinder attached and pressurised. Depressurise the cylinder before opening.
All the best, Martin
hi martin can i get your e mail id
Hi Pratik, Feel free to send me a PM through RUclips. Regards, Martin
Should there be any moisture at all on the spring washers from inside the regulator?
Hi, The short answer is no there should not be moisture inside the regulator. The air in dive tanks is very dry. I suspect that your gun has probably been filled via a hand pump. If the hand pump is operated in a high humidity environment this could account for the moisture you have found. I personally only ever fill from dive tanks that are filled at dive centres and are therefore certified as breathing air.
I hope this info helps.
Regards, Martin
@@MartinHealy thanks for replying so fast Martin.i wouldn't describe the tiny amount of residue that I found as water but just so I'm not confused,should the washers in the reg be completely dry.im assuming yes!I fill my rifle up with a divers bottle and that is done at my local rifle club.is there anyway moisture could be getting into my bottle?sorry to make this long winded but I'm suffering accuracy issues that don't lie with the barrel(100% Not the barrel).I've worked from the barrel seal down to the reg now and found a small bit of residue,could this cause me any accuracy issues?
Hi, I would advise to carefully clean the Belleville washers and the regulator block then apply a thin film of light oil by wiping each washer on a cloth to which oil has been applied. I used GT85 because it also contains PTFE. I recommend using a worn out T-shirt as the cleaning cloth if you do not have any lint-free cleaning cloths. After a T-shirt has been through the wash dozens of times it has shed most of the loose short fibres. Take great care to assemble the stack of Belleville washer s in the sequence shown in my videos.
There are many factors that could cause inconsistent accuracy. Since you have the regulator block partially stripped I would suggest that you purchase a major service kit and a regulator pressure gauge from www.hw100tuning.co.uk and change all the O-rings - including the Main Inlet Valve (internal and external) since this is another cause of inconsistent regulator pressure - which will of course translate into poor accuracy. After completing the regulator service, repeated dry firing with the gauge attached will highlight it if the regulator pressure is varying significantly from shot to shot.
Use www.hw100tuning.co.uk/page/guides and click on Regulator Tuning to access the Weihrauch Owners Club info on all aspects of repairing and tuning your gun.
If the regulator block service does not fix your accuracy issues then move on to cleaning and degreasing the hammer assembly. Persevere.
All the best, Martin
@@MartinHealy thanks again Martin.i will persevere like you say.im sort of enjoying the process as I am learning because of it.hopefully proves fruitful for me.thanks again.
Hi Martin . . . another question. When you remove the air cylinder, does this remove pressure from all areas within the block?? ie - if you remove the cylinder, can you then remove the screw and ball from the pressure test port without 90 bar bursting out?? I assume this is the case but if so, is the pressure equalised to atmospheric throughout? I haven't tested my HW100 recently but have vague memories of removing the cylinder, cocking and dry firing and there was still pressure inside it but surely this must be wrong? - I will have to try it again some time
Hi, I haven't specifically tested for this case but I would expect the block to depressurise when the cylinder is removed because the regulator piston will (should!) be driven forward by the Belleville washers and the Main Inlet Valve will open. But never trust to luck. Always treat a gun as though it is loaded so, even after removing the cylinder, point it in a safe direction and dry fire before doing any work on it or cleaning.
By the way if you are going to be opening the pressure test port I show a little tip in the video about using a powerful magnet to draw the ball out. If you are planning to do some serious experimenting with different regulator pressures then would also recommend replacing the original ball valve with the brass plug from hw100tuning.co.uk.
All the best, Martin
Fantastic video's ... Has given me the confidence to service my HW100 when she needs it ...Rather then sending it away

Best of luck with your servicing. It was a good learning experience for me so I felt obliged to share it with like minded folk. Regards, Martin
Is this the most complicated of the pcps? I have an hw100 and an aa s200. The s200 is fun to tune. I darent dismantle the hw (yet)
Hi, No, I would say that the HW100 is an old but tried and tested design that is still in production. The HW100 has a beautiful simplicity in the design and fantastic production quality. The regulator does have a lot of parts and can be a little daunting but if you adopt a disciplined methodical approach to servicing the HW100 it can be achieved by a reasonably practical person. If you do ever need to service the HW100 yourself then I would advise that you purchase a full kit of seals and lube from a trusted supplier such as www.hw100tuning.co.uk since having a kit of individually labelled service parts greatly simplifies the work.
All the best, Martin
hello I followed all the videos you put online you helped a lot of people to repair their own pcp for that thank you very much here is my problem I bought a PCP recently a HW 100tk canon 41 cm there is 16 joules my problem when I bought it in France I asked for a 35 joules 60 cm gun they sent me the 100tk 16 joules instead. because I live in Algeria I can't make a return otherwise it will cost me very very expensive in money. Given that I shoot at disciplines very far I wanted to raise it to 25 joules so please if you can help me raise it to 25 joules tell me which part I'm going to change because here at home in Algeria there is no power limit you can have a PCP of 150 joules so once again if he please if you can tell me which part changed i will buy them and thanks for listening to me again thanks for all you do
Hi Matouk, I live in the UK and have a sub-12ftlb HW100 (
hello thank you for answering me it's fast it's nice of you and thank you for the advice you gave me but the problem I can't sell the law here in Algeria and clear to sell it was necessary wait 3 years since I bought this rifle it's been a year you have to wait another 2 years to sell it for anti-burglary it is not it it is free that means that I can adjust the spring of the hammer as I do you want is there no other parts to change only the setting it's a good PCP small handy better than the 60cm in the barrel but the disadvantage for the 41 cm it has a limited distance so if I can adjust how you told me is it possible I adjust it to how much please are there other pieces to buy again thank you very much and I apologize I I took some time from you thank you


Hello Mr.Martin, when I shoot my 100, there comes a puff of air from under the barrel, the place where it goes in.Does this mean it the whole regulator unit needs service?
Hi Eyad, I am not sure where the air is escaping from when you fire the gun. The first thing I would do is to remove the stock from the gun. Then try to make absolutely sure that you understand where the air comes out. You could use strips of cotton wool to test where the air exits. Let me know what you find.
If the air only leaks when the gun is fired then it is possible that the barrel is loose. Remove the cylinder to gain access to the grub screw 2679 and check that it is absolutely tight. If your checks confirm that the leak is air escaping from where the barrel enters the block and the 2679 is tight then it could be the Barrel Breech Seal 2680. The HW100 Tuning website has good diagrams and lots of info and guides. They will ship seal kits overseas.www.hw100tuning.co.uk/page/exploded_diagram
If you do not shoot the HW100 for a few weeks does the cylinder pressure drop (it should remain constant)?
All the best, Martin
Hello Mr.Martin ,
After following your advice , I carried out a meticulous check on my 100.The problem is really funny after discovering it.After I removed the shroud , the problem disappeared.The causing air came out from the shroud holes at the back.Removing and reinstalling it ,things got clear for me. The 100 operated very fine.This happened due to me being inexperienced with its mechanics lol.
Again thank you a lot for your quick help.
SOunds like it's coming from the cylinder out a new poly o ring on and it should stop this
Hi Martin Hw100 in 22 change main inlet valve seal spring and ball bearing power still over 9ftlbs would new seals alter the power any help would be grateful cheers Alf..
Hi Alf,
I sent a reply to your comment on Part 2 of this series so I am pasting it here again in case you didn't see it:
There are a number of factors that could be causing the low muzzle energy. Assuming that you haven't recently changed the pellets you are using then other possibilities are that the regulator pressure is low (below the 95-100BAR I would expect), or possibly low hammer spring pressure or a combination of factors. I would recommend that you start the diagnosis by obtaining a pressure gauge to measure the regulator pressure. If the regulator pressure is significantly low then a regulator service will be required. If however, the regulator pressure is consistent from shot to shot and the pressure is in the 95-100BAR range then it is likely that the hammer spring needs adjusting and or the hammer assembly needs degreasing/cleaning and adjusting. You will see me use the regulator pressure gauge in Part 3 of this video series.
I am also assuming that you serviced the brass inlet valve as you see me do In Part 3 from the 22 minute point. Did you change the seal inside the brass inlet valve?
Hope that this helps.
All the best, Martin

Great Job .
Hello Martin, I need your advice!
I've changed some O-Rings of my Hw100 and everything worked perfect, cause of your Video, thank you for that.
But last week my Hw100 keeps leaking. I fixed it quickly, O-Ring 2658 broke. So I got a new one in, but it is still leaking, every O-Ring is fine. It leaks from 200 bar and stops at 130bar, which is strange cause my regulator is set to 90 bar. Did you have those issues?
Sorry for my english and greetings from Germany 😁
Hi Seepel,
I am happy to try to help but you will appreciate that without the gun in my hands it is hard to narrow down the cause of the leak. So I can only offer some general tips and hints. I am not sure which Orings you have already replaced.
Oring 2568 - if you have used the original Weihrauch specification then these Orings are crushed when the breech plug/block are mated and need to be replaced each time the block is opened. The replacement new specification Oring 2568 are a narrower section and often can be reused.
One of the most common cause of slow leaks is the small Oring 2665 on the Main Inlet Valve. Remove the air cylinder and you can then see Oring 2665 on the end of the brass inlet valve. I would recommend changing this Oring and using an upgraded polyurethane Oring because they are more durable. Fill the cylinder to 200BAR and leave it off the gun for several days and keep monitoring the cylinder pressure. The original Weihrauch cylinder has a valve at each end and the air pressure should remain constant. If the pressure drops while the cylinder is off the gun then the cylinder needs to be serviced. I use an aftermarket A&M cylinder so I have never had to service the Weihrauch cylinder. If you need to service the cylinder exercise extreme caution and ensure that the cylinder is absolutely completely empty. There is a useful guide to opening the cylinder on www.hw100tuning.co.uk/ They also sell all the Orings and tools you may need. They are operating during Covid-19 and will post to Germany.
If the above does not fix the leak then you need to return to the regulator block and carry out the full service as in my videos. I would recommend the major service kit of Orings from HW100tuning because it is a simple way to get a full kit of quality Orings that are all individually bagged. I don't have any affiliation to this company but I have found them to be a good company to deal with.
Hope that this information helps. Regards, Martin
@@Incognito1-1 Thanks for your help, I already ordered the O-Ring Set months ago :) I changed some Orings but not all of them, my hw100 is sealed. So today I took my HW100 apart to see if the O-Ring 2658 is damaged. It is, but I have several other 12x1mm Orings. Instead of putting the O-Ring over this little neck on the breech block(2681) and pushing it back in again, I tried to place the Oring in the groove on the valve housing. I tried my best to keep it center while pushing the breech block in, so I hope this will keep the Oring from breaking
Hi martin, if i need more power, can i set the regulator more than 90 bar
Hi Pratik, I cannot advise that you attempt to increase the power above that set by the manufacturer. In the UK the power is limited to sub 12 ftlbs without a Firearms Certificate (FAC). The muzzle energy of the gun is determined by a number of factors - the regulated air pressure, the firing valve timing, the transfer port size, the pellet weight etc. So simply increasing the regulator pressure may not achieve your goal. You should also consider that there are component differences between the low and high power versions of the HW100 - the regulator piston, Belleville washers etc.
I would encourage you to question why you feel that you need more power. If you are hunting and would like to increase the range at which you can shoot game successfully then perhaps you could simply improve your stalking and concealment techniques to enable you to get closer to the game. Shot placement is in my opinion much more important than muzzle energy.
Regards, Martin

Video is a bit long winded 🙄 but useful after all that 👍
Try a dentist pick and puncture the valve seals and withdraw them
Hi, Thanks for the tip. I did resort to puncturing some of the seals with a pin but I would prefer to avoid this method if at all possible because of the risk of scratching the metal surfaces and causing leaks or wear on the new seal.
Regards, Martin
Seems modern air rifle don't last long before your paying for services or repair. Just like modern cars they get too complicated and break down regularly. The only thing they got going for them is they look good......... well some do.
Hi Pete, I take your point about the complexity and potential for necessary maintenance. However, the up side is that PCP air rifles are wonderfully consistent and accurate. In fact rifles such as a well setup HW100 perform so accurately that the weak link is the guy or girl on the trigger.
All the best, Martin
Thanks Martin for the reply and I do agree with you. But you see so many rifles not very old having problems and some costing over £2000 plus. I had a BSA Meteor when I was 18 costing £25 second hand but alas we all get old and being a pensioner now this sport is well out of my league. Take care happy shooting.
@@petemason57 Hi Pete, There are still some shooting bargains out there. Have you checked out any reviews for the CP1 and CP2 CO2 guns? I have got both of these and they are basic but huge fun.

no audio??
Hi Jefry, The audio is now back on all 3 of the videos in this series on the HW100. When I received your message I checked the Part 1 video on my mobile and yes the audio was just a quiet crackling noise. Even stranger it was the same on Parts 2 and 3. All of these videos had decent audio so I was intrigued and couldn't find any issues with any of the other videos that I sampled on my channel. However, I have now just checked on my PC and the audio was OK and when I checked on my mobile the audio was also back. So I can only put it down to a temporary RUclips issue but all is now well. Thanks again for bringing this issue to my attention.

Absolutely cringing at this butcher and his seemingly endless range of allen keys which he uses for just about everything .
Right first off ,never i repeat never ever use any sort of metal implement to prise out seals o-rings or p.t.f.e. guides etc ,remember that thee are PRECISION instruments and any sort of minor scratch or scoring (even those invisible to the naked eye )of any sealed surfaces will almost certainly result in a compromised seal which will never be properly air tight . ALWAYS use either a wooden or softish plastic tool for seal removal .
Next pre-assembly cleaning ,it is imperative that all recesses and machined grooves to accept seals etc are meticulously clean ,this is best achieved by using something like methalayted sprits along with cotton buds to get into difficult to access areas ,a ready supply of kitchen paper is invaluable also .
Apart from this he does at least show how to disassemble the gun in the correct order .
Hi Jeg, I agree with the point you make about avoiding scratching seal area surfaces and the use of wooden tools (such as toothpicks) to remove seals. I make this point many times during this series of videos on the HW100.
On the subject of cleaning - again we agree on the need for very thorough cleaning before reassembly. However I don't agree that cotton buds are a particularly good choice because they shed long cotton fibres. In these videos I recommend using fabric from an old T-shirt that has been washed dozens of times because this fabric will have shed all the loose fibres during the repeated washings and because it is a source of cleaning cloth that everyone will have available. In the videos I go on to say that after cleaning with the T-shirt fabric I then clean all surfaces again using special 'lint-free' cleaning cloth squares that are made for one time use.
All the best, Martin
