Once your BT Marker is unloaded and the CO2 cylinder is removed, you
can use a damp cloth to wipe off paint, dirt and debris from the outside
of your marker. Once your Marker is clean and dry you can re-oil using a
light, premium Marker oil. Do not use any petroleum-based or aerosol
products on your marker. Petroleum-based and aerosol products can
damage your markers o-rings.

• Pull a paintball swab, like the BT Battle Swab, through the barrel,
breech insert, and breech area to clean them.

rings on the bolt and hammer.
