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 Sleeve for ring.
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 Sleeve.
Replace the Barrel Sleeve if the sleeve or cord is damaged, or there is a loss of
cord elasticity.

• Keep your nger 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 marker on safe until ready to shoot (see page 6).
• Keep the barrel blocking device installed on marker when not shooting (page 4).
• Never point the marker at anything you do not intend to shoot.
• Never re 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 re your marker at personal property of others, the paintball can stain the
paint of automobiles and houses.
• Always keep the muzzle pointed down or in a safe direction, even if you stumble
or fall.
• Eye, face and ear protection designed specically to stop paintballs in the form of
goggles and full face mask meeting ASTM Specication F 1776 must be worn by
the user and any person within range.
• Never shoot at a person who is not protected by eye, face and ear protection
designed for paintball.
• Pressurize and load the marker only when the marker will be immediately used.
• NOTE: Before storing or disassembling be sure to remove paintballs and air

• Do not eld strip or otherwise disassemble this marker while it is pressurized with

• Keep exposed skin away from escaping gas when installing or removing air
supply cylinder or if the marker or air supply is leaking. Compressed air, CO2, and
nitrogen gasses are very cold and can cause frostbite under certain conditions.
• Use only .68 caliber paintballs, never load or re any foreign objects.
• Avoid alcoholic beverages before and during the use of this marker. Handling
markers while under the inuence of drugs or alcohol is a criminal disregard for
public safety.

• Familiarize yourself with instructions listed on air supply cylinder or adaptor.
Contact the air supply cylinder or adaptor manufacturer with any questions.
• Always measure your marker’s velocity before playing paintball and never shoot

GETTING STARTED
• Eye protection designed for paintball use must be worn by the user and any
person within range.
• Do not disassemble this marker while it is pressurized with air.
• Do not pressurize a partially assembled marker.
• Read each step completely before performing the step.
NOTE: Carefully hand start all threaded parts when assembling, and do not
overtighten, as this may potentially strip the threaded parts. Refer to the Basic Parts
Diagram on pages 18-19 for these instructions (item numbers are in parentheses).
1. Install the Barrel.
a. Apply Tippmann oil to the Barrel O-ring.
b. Insert the Barrel into the Receiver.
c. Carefully turn the Barrel clockwise by hand until
tight.
2. Air/CO2 Cylinder Installation
You must rst read the Air/CO2 Cylinder
Warnings, Removal, and Safety Tips on pages
10-12 before beginning the cylinder installation.
Do not pressurize a partially assembled paintball
marker.
a. Put the Trigger Safety in the Safe position
(see page 6) and install the Barrel Sleeve (see
page 4).
b. Cock the marker by sliding the bolt handle all
the way back until it locks into place. Always
keep marker in the cocked position when attaching air/CO2 cylinder to the
marker. This helps prevent an accidental discharge.
c. Lubricate the air/CO2 cylinder valve O-ring with a little Tippmann® oil.
d. Insert the air/CO2 cylinder valve into the Air Supply Adapter (ASA) (29) at the
back end of the marker grip.
e. Twist the air/CO2 cylinder clockwise into the ASA until it stops. Use caution as
WARNING
INSTALL THE AIR/CO2 CYLINDER AND LOAD THE HOPPER WITH PAINTBALLS
ONLY AFTER YOU:

• HAVE THE SAFETY IN SAFE MODE (SEE PAGE 6)
EYE PROTECTION DESIGNED FOR PAINTBALL USE MUST BE WORN BY THE
USER AND ANY PERSON WITHIN RANGE.

the marker is now capable of ring after you put the Trigger Safety in the Fire
position. (If you do not hear the air/CO2 cylinder engage, the pin valve could be
too short or the pin valve seal is damaged, follow the Air/CO2 Cylinder Removal
instructions on page 11 and take your air/CO2 cylinder to a “C5” Certied Airsmith
for inspection or contact the cylinder manufacturer).
f. If you want to put the marker into the uncocked position, (refer to Figure 2) pull
and hold the bolt cocking handle back. While holding onto the cocking handle,
pull the trigger and allow the cocking handle slowly move forward, which uncocks
the marker.
3. Loading the Hopper
The Barrel Sleeve must be installed (see page 4) and the Safety in Safe mode (see
page 6).
a. Make sure that the Feed Elbow and Hopper are clean and free of sharp edges
or debris. This keeps the paintballs from breaking prematurely, and allows the
Hopper to feed paintballs to the marker’s chamber smoothly.
b. Install the Hopper neck into the Feed Elbow. Tighten with the included 3/16” Allen
wrench to secure. NOTE: Do not overtighten or the Feed Elbow may break.
c. With the Barrel Sleeve installed (page 4), and the Safety in Safe mode (page 6),
you are now ready to load your hopper with .68 caliber paintballs. Do not force
excessive numbers of paintballs into the hopper.
d. Only remove the Barrel Sleeve and change the Safety to Fire Mode when you are
ready to re the marker in a safe direction.
4. Firing the Marker
a. Remove the Barrel Sleeve from the marker.
b. Point the marker in a safe direction.
c. Put the Trigger Safety in the Fire position.
d. Pull the trigger to re the marker.
Velocity Adjustment
Each time you play paintball, check the velocity of your paintball marker with a
chronograph (an instrument for measuring velocity) prior to playing paintball. Verify
that the marker’s velocity is set below 300 feet per second (or less if required by the
playing eld).
To adjust the velocity, use the 3/16” Allen wrench included with your marker. The
Velocity Adjustment Screw (#51 in Parts Diagram and shown in Figure 3 above)
is located on left side receiver. To reduce the velocity, turn the screw inward or
clockwise. To increase the velocity, turn the screw counterclockwise. Do not remove
the velocity screw.

Unloading Your Marker
1. Eye protection designed for paintball use must be worn by the user and any
person within range.
2. Install the Barrel Sleeve and put the Safety in Safe Mode.
3. Empty all paintballs from the Hopper. Loosen the Feed Elbow bolt. Lift the Hopper
from the Feed Elbow.
4. Go to a designated ring area, remove the Barrel Sleeve, and move the Safety to
Fire Mode (see Firing the Marker on page 9).
5. Point your marker in a safe direction and re several times to be sure there are
no remaining paintballs lodged in the chamber or barrel. IMPORTANT: Do not
uncock your marker as uncocking your marker may push a paintball into the
chamber or down into the barrel, in which case the ball will be hidden from view.
6. Return the Safety to the Safe mode (see page 6).
7. Reinstall the Barrel Sleeve (see page 4).
8. Read the following Air/CO2 Cylinder Warnings and Safety Tips before removing
the air cylinder from your marker (removal instructions are on page 11).
Air/CO2 Cylinder Warnings
Refer to Figure 4. There have been reported incidents
caused by players unknowingly unscrewing the cylinder
(2) from the cylinder valve (1). This occurs when the
player thinks the entire valve-cylinder assembly is being
unscrewed from the air/CO2 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 place a mark (3) on the cylinder valve, and place
another mark (4) on the cylinder, in line with the #3 mark
as shown.
Whenever you turn the cylinder during removal, watch
the marks on the cylinder and the cylinder valve to be
sure that they rotate together. If at any time these marks
start to separate as shown in Figure 5, the cylinder is
starting to unscrew from the cylinder valve and you
must STOP and take the entire unit to a “C5” certied
airsmith for safe removal and/or repair.
WARNING
THE BRASS OR NICKEL PLATED CYLINDER VALVE (FIGURE 4,
#1) IS INTENDED TO BE PERMANENTLY ATTACHED TO THE AIR
OR CO2 CYLINDER (#2).
AN AIR OR CO2 CYLINDER CAN FLY OFF WITH ENOUGH FORCE
TO CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IF THE CYLINDER (#2)
UNSCREWS FROM A CYLINDER VALVE (#1).
