varies slightly on exactly how far it has to be turned). Turn the cylinder counterclockwise
a little further and repeat this step until the marker does not fire. Only then remove the
air/CO2 supply cylinder.
NOTE: If during this step, you turned the air/CO2 supply cylinder and it began to leak before
you pulled the trigger, the cylinder O-ring should be checked for damage before any re-
assembly.
6. After the air/CO2 supply cylinder is removed, again point and fire the marker in a safe
direction to verify the marker is completely discharged of gas.

device (see page 4).

Loading the Mag Fed Magazine

Loading instructions are molded into the side of the magazines.
1. It is important to wind up the spring by rotating the knob on the magazine in the
clockwise direction.
2. Paintballs may be inserted past the magazine ball catch, but if paintballs are fragile, we
recommend retracting the ball catch release.
3. The Magazines hold 20 paintballs, but loading 19 is best. If magazines are to be
carried in a battle pack, this ensures the 19 paintballs are not under any compression,
compression may cause flat spots on the paintballs.
