Remove the ASA from your gun. Screw the ASA on the tank(Only the asa!) and all the air will come out.

    just take a sturdy wrench and press down on the brass pin on the top of it. keep clear of the rushing air.

    Yea just push down on the pin. Or shoot the marker while doing it, much more fun.

    Another option, if you have a remote line you can connect that and do it a bit more safely.
