10. Storage and Transportation

I I M M P P O O R R T T A A N N T T : : Never carry your BT Marker uncased when not on a play-
ing field. The non-playing public and law enforcement personnel may not
be able to distinguish between a paintball Marker and firearm. For your
own safety and to protect the image of the sport, always carry your BT
Marker in a suitable Marker case or in the box in which it was shipped.
When you are finished using your BT Marker it is important that you pre-
pare it for storage. This will not only serve to increase the life of the mark-
er, but will assure optimum performance on your next outing.
• The BT Marker must be clear of all paint and propellant when not
being used.
• Be sure to have Marker de-cocked and in "Safe Mode" when not in use.
• Make sure a barrel-blocking device is in place.
• Store your BT Marker and propellant in cool dry place.
• Keep your BT Marker away from unsupervised children.
• Remove the 12 gram CO cylinder if the marker is not intended to be used.

• Your BT Marker must be free of all paint and not attached to a propel-
lant source while being transported to and from the playing field.
• Observe and obey all local, state, and federal laws concerning the
transportation of paintball markers. For information concerning any of
the laws in your area, contact your local law enforcement.
• Always store the Marker in a secure location when not in use so as to
prevent access by unauthorized persons.
