OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Firing velocity may vary according to altitude and climate conditions. 2. Before using your paint pistol in play, yo must always first perform a “SAFE VELOCITY TEST”. This can only be accomplished by using a testing device called a “Velocity Chronograph” and can be performed by the dealership where you purchased this product or at a local paintball playing field. 3. NOTE:This product is intended to be used at a velocity no greater than 320 feet per second (FPS). Recommended velocity is 300 FPS or less. 4. This product is not intended to be used at any distance less than 25 feet. 5. lower velocities may be attained by substituting a lighter hammer spring, (Item #34), available through your dealer or distributor.

Figure 1 Use only 12 gram type CO2 cartridges which are flat on the small end. Any other cartridge form or shape, such as those having threads on on end, will not function and should not be used. CO2 guns should not be used in temperatures below 40˚ fahrenheit as performance decreases significantly below this level. CO2 cartridges may explode at temperatures above 160˚ F.
