Safety Check

WARNING:

The PROTO® Switch™ Goggle 

System suffers wear and stress even in normal use. 

Scratches, cracks and discoloration are signs

of stress-caused fatigue and indicate that 

a part is at the end of its useful life and 

needs to be replaced.

Here’s a simple, sixty-second safety check. Get in the habit of making

this safety check every time you’re about to play paintball.

Before each use, perform a safety check.

1

Look for scratches on the lens and goggle frame.

2

Look for cracks on the lens and goggle frame.

3

Look for discoloration on the lens and goggle frame.

4

Do not use a lens that is scratched, cracked or discolored. 

Replace the lens immediately.

Getting Started

Paintball is an adventure sport. Even when paintball is played as

intended you can get hurt. No goggle system can prevent serious injury

in all situations.

The PROTO¤ Switch“ Goggle system is intended for use by paintball

players participating in a supervised game of paintball with competent

referees at a paintball facility where each paintball marker is

chronographed before each game and paintball velocity is limited to 

300 feet per second (92 meters per second) or less.
