Safety Is Your Responsibility (continued from page 6)

• Before storing or disassembling:

1) Remove paintballs from the marker. Completely empty

the hopper, point your marker in a safe direction, fire several

times to be sure there are no balls lodged in the chamber

and/or barrel.

2) Remove the propane supply then pump and fire in a safe

direction until there is no propane left in the marker.

3) Install the barrel sleeve (see page 2) and put safety into the

safe mode (see page 4).

• Store the marker unloaded and degassed in a secure place.

• Do not disassemble this marker while it is pressurized with

propane supply.

• Do not pressurize a partially assembled marker with propane

supply.

• Dress appropriately when playing the game of paintball. Avoid

exposing any skin when playing the game of paintball. Even

a light layer will absorb some of the impact and protect you

from the paintballs.

• Use only .68 caliber paintballs, never load or fire any foreign

objects.

• Avoid alcoholic beverages before and during the use of this

marker. Handling markers while under the influence of drugs

or alcohol is a criminal disregard for public safety.

• Avoid shooting an opponent at point blank, 6 feet or less.

• Always measure your marker’s velocity before playing

paintball and never shoot at velocities in excess of 300 feet

per second (see Velocity Adjustment on page 9).

• Keep barrel clean and dry at all times.

• Familiarize yourself with and follow safe propane cylinder

handling and storage procedures as outlined on the cylinder

label and as follows in the Propane Cylinder Handling and

Storage section on page 7.
