Repairing Air/CO2 Cylinder Leaks
The most common leak occurs from a bad air/CO2 valve O-Ring. To replace a valve O-Ring
you must rst remove the bad O-Ring and then install a new one. This O-Ring is located
on the tip of your air/CO2 valve. The best valve O-Rings are made of urethane. Urethane
O-Rings are not affected by high air/CO2 pressures. These may be purchased from Tippmann
or your local paintball dealer. There is an extra O-Ring in the Accessory Pack that came with
your marker.
NOTE: If a new air/CO2 valve O-Ring does not resolve an air/CO2 leak, do not attempt to
repair the air/CO2 cylinder. Contact Tippmann Sports, LLC, your local paintball dealer, or a
“C5” Certied Airsmith.
