Quick Start Guide Rev. 12/19
Getting Started
• Eye protection designed for paintball use must be worn by the user and any person
within range.
• Do not disassemble this marker while it is pressurized with air/CO2.
• Do not pressurize a partially assembled marker.
• Read each step completely before performing the step.
NOTE
: Carefully hand start all threaded parts when assembling, and do not
overtighten, as this may potentially strip the threaded parts.
1. Air/CO2 Supply Cylinder Installation
Review Air/CO2 Supply Cylinder Safety Tips (see page 11).
a. Put the Trigger Safety in Safe mode (see page 6) and install the barrel blocking
device (see page 4).
b. As shown at right, cock the marker by sliding the bolt
handle all the way back until it locks into place. Always
keep marker in the cocked position when the air/CO2
supply is attached to the marker. This helps prevent an
accidental discharge.
c. Lubricate the cylinder valve O-ring with marker oil.
d. Insert the air/CO2 supply cylinder valve into the air/CO2
supply adapter (ASA) at the back end of the marker grip.
e. Twist the cylinder clockwise into the air/CO2 supply adapter until it stops. Use
caution as the marker is now capable of firing after you put the Trigger Safety in Fire
mode. If the tank is full, and you do not hear the air/CO2 supply engage, the pin
valve could be too short or the pin valve seal is damaged (follow the Air/CO2 Supply
Cylinder Removal instructions on page 12, and take your air or CO2 cylinder to a
“C5” Certified Airsmith for inspection or contact the cylinder manufacturer).
2A. Loading the Hopper (option)
The barrel blocking device must be installed (see page 4) and the Trigger Safety must be in
Safe mode (see page 6).
a. Make sure that the Feed Neck and Hopper are clean and free of sharp edges or
debris. This keeps paintballs from breaking prematurely, and allows paintballs to
feed to the marker’s chamber smoothly.
b. Loosen the Feed Neck Bolt using the included 3/16” hex key.
c. Install the Hopper into the Feed Neck.
d. Tighten the Feed Neck Bolt using the included 3/16” hex key. Do not over-tighten, as
the Feed Neck may break.
e. With the barrel blocking device installed (page 4), and the Trigger Safety in Safe
mode (page 6), you are now ready to load your hopper with .68 caliber paintballs.
Do not force excessive numbers of paintballs into the hopper. Fill the hopper only
when ready to shoot. Remove the barrel blocking device and put the marker in Fire
mode only when ready to shoot.
