1. Rules for Safe Marker Handling
IMPORTANT: Never carry your Marker uncased when not on a playing field. The
non-playing public and law enforcement personnel may not be able to distinguish
between a paintball marker and firearm. For your own safety and to protect the
image of the sport, always carry your Marker in a suitable marker case or in the box
in which it was shipped.
• Treat every marker as if it were loaded.
• Never look down the barrel of a paintball marker.
• Keep your finger OFF the trigger until ready to shoot.
• Never point the marker at anything you don’t wish to shoot.
• Keep the marker on “safe” until ready to shoot.
• Keep the barrel blocking device in/ on the marker’s barrel when not shooting.
• Always remove paintballs and propellant source before disassembly.
• After removing air source, point marker in safe direction and discharge until
marker is degassed.
• Store the marker unloaded and degassed in a secure place.
• Follow warnings listed on the air source for handling and storage.
• Do not shoot at fragile objects such as windows.
• Every person within range must wear eye, face and ear protection designed
specifically to stop paintballs and meeting ASTM standard F1776.
• Always measure your marker’s velocity before playing paintball and never shoot at
velocities in excess of 91.44 meters (300 feet-per-second).
Read this entire manual before loading, attaching a propellant
source or in any way attempting to operate any BT-4 Series marker.
NOTE: Eye protective devices designed specifically for paintball use must be worn by
the operator and anyone within range.

3. Getting Started
Safety and Safe marker handling are the most important aspects of paintball
sports. Please practice each of the following steps with an unloaded marker before
attempting to charge your marker with compressed air and paintballs.
Do not install an air cylinder or load paintballs into your Marker until you feel
completely confident with your ability to handle your Marker safely.
Keep your finger out of the trigger guard and away from the trigger; point the muzzle
of the marker in a safe direction at all times. Keep the marker in safety or turned off
until ready to operate.
