2) Adjust the cord length retainer up to the back
of the grip by pulling the cord through it until the
retainer is snug against the back of the grip.
Keeping the cord as tight as possible, leave just
enough cord elasticity to pull the cord/retainer up
over the top of the marker to remove the barrel
blocking device for firing.
3) After the cord length is properly adjusted, lock
the cord length by tying a knot in the cord against
the back of the retainer as shown.
4) Before and after playing, inspect the barrel blocking device and
replace if bag, plug, or cord damage, or loss of cord elasticity is found.
5) Clean the barrel blocking device with plain, warm water and store
out of sunlight in a dry area when not in use.

• Do not load or fire this marker until you have completely read this
manual and are familiar with its safety features, mechanical operation
and handling characteristics.
• Handle this and any marker as if it were loaded at all times.
• Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.
• Do not look down the barrel of a paintball marker. Accidental
discharge into the eyes may cause permanent injury or death.
• Keep the trigger safety in safe mode until ready to shoot (see
page 4).
• Keep the barrel blocking device installed on marker when not
shooting (see page 2).
• Never point the marker at anything you do not intend to shoot.
• Never fire your marker at anything you do not intend to shoot because
there may be balls or foreign debris lodged in the chamber, barrel
and / or the marker valve.
• Do not shoot at fragile objects such as windows.
• Never fire your marker at personal property of others. The
paintball impact can cause damage and the paint can stain the
finish of automobiles, houses etc.
• Always keep the muzzle pointed down or in a safe direction, even if
you stumble or fall.
• Eye, face and ear protection designed specifically to stop paintballs
in the form of goggles and full face mask meeting ASTM Specification

Each time you play paintball, the velocity
of your paintball marker should be checked
with a chronograph, an instrument for
measuring velocity , prior to playing paintball
to verify that the marker’s velocity is set
below 300 feet per second or less if required
by playing field.
To adjust the velocity use the 3/16” allen wrench included

Air Supply Cylinder Removal
Step1) ❏ You must first read the following Air Supply Cylinder
WARNINGS and SAFETY TIPS ( before beginning the cylinder removal
in Step 2 on page 14).
WARNING
NEVER UNSCREW THE CYLINDER FROM THE CYLINDER VALVE .
THE BRASS OR NICKEL PLATED VALVE IS
INTENDED TO BE PERMANENTLY ATTACHED TO
THE AIR OR CO2 CYLINDER . AN AIR OR CO2
CYLINDER CAN FLY OFF WITH ENOUGH FORCE
TO CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IF THE
CYLINDER UNSCREWS FROM A CYLINDER VALVE .
There have been reported incidents that were caused by players
unknowingly unscrewing the cylinder
. This occurs when the player thinks the entire valve-cylinder
assembly is being unscrewed from the air adaptor of the paintball
marker
when in fact they are unscrewing the cylinder from the
cylinder valve . To Avoid This Danger: It is
recommended, if your cylinder is not already
marked, that you use paint or nail polish to
a mark
on the cylinder valve and ❏ place a mark
on the cylinder as shown.
Whenever you turn the cylinder during removal, ❏ watch the

time these marks start to separate as

, the cylinder is starting
to unscrew from the cylinder valve
and you should STOP and take the
entire unit to a “C5” certified airsmith
for safe removal and/or repair.
NOTE:
The cylinder valve should unscrew

Repairing Air Supply Cylinder Leaks:
The most common leak occurs from a bad air supply valve o-ring. To replace
a valve o-ring you must first remove the bad o-ring then install a new one
and lubricate with a few drops of oil. This o-ring is located on the tip of
your air supply valve. The best valve o-rings are made of urethane.
Urethane o-rings are not affected by high air supply pressures. These
may be purchased from Tippmann
NOTE: If new valve o-ring does not resolve air supply leak, do not
attempt to repair air supply cylinder. Contact Tippmann Sports, LLC,
your local paintball dealer or a “C5” Certified Airsmith.

Do not pressurize a partially assembled marker.
• Follow warnings listed on the air supply cylinder for handling and storage.
• Familiarize yourself with instructions listed on air supply cylinder or
adaptor. Contact the air supply cylinder or adaptor manufacturer with
any questions.
• Do not use any petroleum based cleaning solvents.
• Do not use any cleaning solvents that come in aerosol cans. NOTE:
Petroleum based products and aerosol products can damage your
markers’ o-rings.
• To clean your paintball marker use a damp towel with water to wipe off
paint, oil, and debris. Use Tippmann
marker oil to maintain your marker in good working condition.
•To clean inside the barrel. Depress the feed elbow
