Manual

The PMI Piranha™ paintball marker may be powered by CO
2
, regulated compressed air, or regulated nitrogen. From
the source of gas or air through the entire power system, there are varying pressures that are applied to the
marker and the components of the power system.
THE SAFETY RULES FOR HANDLING COMPRESSED GAS OR AIR MUST BE FOLLOWED AT ALL TIMES.
O P E RATING PRESSURE AND INPUT PRESS U R E
Operating pressure range: 650 p.s.i. to 800 p.s.i.
Recommended maximum input pressure is 800 p.s.i.
Do not exceed recommended pressures.
When using a regulator in the marker’s power system, follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of
the regulator.
Do not leave cylinder or pressurized marker in direct sunlight or exposed to heat source. Increased temperature will
increase the pressure of compressed gas or air.
Do not attach anything to this marker that has a “check valve” or other device which does not allow complete
draining of gas or air from the power system when the power source is detached.
WARNING
DO NOT EXCEED RECOMMENDED INPUT OR OPERATING PRESSURE.
VALVE-CYLINDER CONNECTION
The valve on a cylinder is to remain screwed into the cylinder; Figures 3,4. S h o u l d
it loosen, the cylinder may detach from the valve with extremely dangerous force.
Every time a cylinder is filled, the connection between the valve and cylinder
must be inspected. If any looseness or leak is detected between the valve and the
cylinder, do not fill. Drain cylinder and take to qualified personnel for inspection.
During filling, if any looseness or leak is detected between the valve and the
cylinder, filling must stop immediately. Drain cylinder and immediately take to
qualified personnel for inspection.
