CO2 / COMPRESSED AIR TANK WARNINGS
CO2 / COMPRESSED AIR TANK WARNINGS
• All valves must only be installed or removed by a qualified airsmith.
• See CO2 / Compressed Air tank labels for retest dates. Cylinder tanks must be retested periodically.
• Improper use, filling, storage or disposal of all air cylinders may result in death, personal injury and/or property
damage.
• Always keep cylinders out of reach from children or any inexperienced person(s).
• Only properly trained personnel in accordance with CGA Pamphlets P.1 and G-6.3 must fill all air cylinders.
Pamphlets are available from the Compressed Gas Association or www.CGANET.com.
• Never alter the cylinder in any way.
• DO NOT expose pressurized cylinders to temperatures in excess of 130˚F (54˚C).
• Cylinders heated to an excess of 250˚F (121˚C) must be condemned or requalified in accordance with test
defined in CFR-49.
• The valve should NEVER be detached from the canister. Please seek immediate assistance from a trained
airsmith should this occur.
• Any tank packed with the product is intended for paintball use only.
• Confirm that there is an attached urethane O-ring on the CO2 / Compressed Air tank valve before attaching
the tank to the marker. The tank will leak air as soon as it is secured to the marker, if the O-ring is missing from
the valve.
• A urethane O-ring is highly recommended before attaching any air supply to the marker.
• NEVER over pressurize a CO2 / Compressed Air cylinder.
• Avoid any direct skin exposure to the escaping gas, when installing or removing any air supply.
• Never expose cylinders to corrosive materials or clean with any caustic cleaners.
The CO2 or Compressed Air Tank can fly off with enough force to cause serious
injury or death if the Valve unscrews from the cylinder head. LOOK at the Valve
when removing the cylinder from the marker. Be sure that the valve is turning
with the cylinder rather than remaining stationary with the marker. STOP if the
Valve starts to unscrew from the cylinder. If in doubt, screw the cylinder back
onto the marker and contact a trained person for repair.

INSTALLING A CO2 / COMPRESSED AIR TANK
Firmly hand tighten the CO2 / Compressed Air Tank clockwise into the markers C/A On/Off adapter.
HELPFUL TIP: Before installing a CO2 / Compressed Air Tank, make sure that the tank is full and that it has a
urethane bottle o-ring on the top of the valve to prevent air leaks.
IMPORTANT: You should never need to use any hand tool to attach a CO2 / Compressed Air Tank to the C/A
On/Off adapter.
REMOVING A CO2 / COMPRESSED AIR TANK
With a firm grip holding the CO2 / Compressed Air Tank remove the cylinder by hand turn counter-clockwise until it
comes out of the C/A On/Off adapter.
HELPFUL TIP: After firing the marker, you should ALWAYS remove the CO2
/ Compressed Air Tank before storing. When the tank is being removed, excess air will release from the C/A On/Off
adapter.
CAUTION: Never expose any skin to the C/A On/Off adapters bleed hole when removing the tank. This is to
avoid the risk of getting skin burn from the escaping GAS.
IMPORTANT: You should never need to use any hand tool to detach a CO2 / Compressed Air Tank from the C/A
On/Off adapter. If you cannot remove a tank by hand please see a certified airsmith for assistance.
PROPER USE OF YOUR BARREL BLOCKING DEVICE
A Barrel Blocking Device or “BBD” is an essential part of your paintball safety equipment. The Barrel Blocking
Device is designed to stop a paintball from exiting a paintball marker accidentally. Improper use of the Barrel
Blocking Device will render this device useless.
BARREL SOCK/BAG TYPE DEVICE
Place the bag/sock part of the Barrel Blocking Device over the end of your barrel and wrap the elastic cord around
the back end of your marker.
Adjust the length of the elastic cord to make sure your Barrel Blocking Device fits securely over your markers barrel.
NOTE: If the elastic cord is too long you can tie a couple of knots around the cord to shorten its length.
BARREL PLUG TYPE DEVICE
Insert the barrel plug securely into the end of your markers barrel before proceeding to load paintballs and screwing
in your tank to your marker.
The barrel plug should fit firmly into the barrel with a significant amount of resistance.
NOTE: The barrel plug should
not be easy to remove and always inspect the O-rings to make sure they are not worn or cut.
Remove the Barrel Blocking Device only when you are getting ready to begin play or have been instructed to do so
by a field safety official.
Always keep your Barrel Blocking Device on your marker after you have finished playing. Keep it in place even after
you have emptied all paintballs and removed your air tank from your paintball marker.
WARNING
Inspect your Barrel Blocking Device regularly for wear and any tear if it is worn, replace it immediately.
Always have your Barrel Blocking Device in place on your markers barrel to insure safety and prevent accidents that
may cause permanent injury or even death.
