Air Supply: Much like any other tournament marker, the Protege requires the use of
compressed air or nitrogen only. The Protege is compatible with both high-pressure
and low-pressure compressed air systems. If using an adjustable-output air system,
set the system’s output between 400 and 500 psi. Screwing your preset air system
into the ASA at the bottom of the grip will pressurize the marker, preparing it for use.
Turning on your Protege:
To power up your Protege, press the On\Off button on the rear of the marker. The LED
(light-emitting diode) should light up and indicate the status of that marker. By default,
the marker is ready to re when loaded with paint and air when powered on. To turn the
Protege off, press and hold the button until the LED lights orange, then red. Release
the button and the marker will be powered off.
Hopper and Paint:
The Protege utilizes the absolute cutting edge in both electronic and pneumatic tech-
nology; to utilize the Protege in its full capacity, the use of a forcefeed motorized loader
is recommended. To ensure little or no breakage of paint in both the loader and marker,
only use top-grade paintballs in your new Protege.
Adjusting Velocity:
Although both of the regulators on the
Protege come preset from the factory,
always adjust the regulators to account
for paint to bore match, atmospheric
differences, and your eld’s maximum
chronograph limit. The velocity of your
marker is controlled through the verti-
cal regulator, which is adjusted with a
1\8” Allen wrench. Turning the screw
clockwise (or inward) will increase your
velocity; turning the screw counterclock-
wise will decrease your velocity.
