Familiarize Yourself With Safety...

The ownership of this weapon places upon you the total responsibility for its safe and lawful

use. You must observe the same safety precautions as you would any rearm to assure

the safety of not only yourself but everyone around you. Outlined here are some general

precautions to be aware of. The user should at all times use caution and common sense when

using this marker and always remember that the game of paintball can only survive and grow

if it remains SAFE!

• Do not load or re 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 nger off the trigger until you are 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 in safe mode until ready to shoot (see Warning box above).

• Keep the barrel blocking device installed on marker when not shooting (page 5).

• 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 impact can

cause damage and the paint can stain the nish 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 specically to stop paintballs in the form of

goggles and full face mask meeting ASTM Specication 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.

• Store the marker unloaded and degassed in a secure place.

NOTE: Before storing or disassembling, be sure to remove paintballs and air supply

(see Unloading Your Marker and Air Cylinder Removal instructions on pages 10

and 14) and install the barrel blocking device (see page 5).

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

supply.

• Dress appropriately when playing the game of paintball. Avoid exposing any skin

when playing the game of paintball. Even a light layer will absorb some of the

impact and protect you from the paintballs.

• Keep exposed skin away from escaping gas when installing or removing air cylinder

or if the marker or air supply is leaking. Compressed air can be very cold and

may cause frostbite under certain conditions. Never use any other gas than high

pressure air (HPA).

• Only use .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 inuence of drugs or alcohol is a criminal disregard for

public safety.

• Avoid shooting an opponent at point blank, 6 feet or less.

• Familiarize yourself with instructions listed on air supply cylinder or adapter. Contact

the air supply cylinder or adapter manufacturer with any questions.

• Read the High Pressure Air Cylinder Warnings and Safety Tips on pages 13–14

before beginning the cylinder installation or removal.

• Always measure your marker’s velocity before playing paintball and never shoot at

velocities in excess of 300 feet per second (see instructions on page 10).

• Do not brandish or display this product in public as it may cause confusion and may

be a crime. Police or others may mistake this product for a real rearm. Altering the

coloration or markings required by state or federal law to make the product look

more like a rearm is dangerous and may be a crime.

within range.

• Do not disassemble this marker while it is pressurized.

• 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.

WARNING

Install the air supply and load the hopper with paintballs only after you:

• have a barrel blocking device installed (see page 5)

• 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.

1. Install the Barrel

a. Install the Barrel and Hand Guard by turning it clockwise into the receiver.

b. Install the barrel blocking device (page 5).

2. Battery Installation

Use these instructions for rst-time battery install or for battery replacement:

a. Use a 5/64 hex wrench to remove the two screws

from the left side grip, and open to expose the battery

compartment. NOTE: For battery replacement,

whenever removing the battery clip from the battery,

never pull it by the wires.

b. Install a 9 volt battery onto the battery clip. Observe the

polarity! Reverse polarity will damage the circuit board!

c. Insert the battery into the grip with the battery clip at the

bottom, and wires routed as shown.

d. Replace the grip and fasten with the two screws

removed in step 2a.

3. High Pressure Air (HPA) Cylinder Installation

Read the Air Cylinder Warnings, Safety Tips, and Removal on pages 13-14 before

beginning the HPA cylinder installation. Do not pressurize a partially assembled paintball

marker. Never use any other gas than high pressure air (HPA).

a. Put the Safety in safe mode (see page 6) and install the barrel blocking device (see

page 5).

b. Lubricate the air cylinder valve O-ring with a little Tippmann grease.

c. Insert the air cylinder valve into the Air Supply Adapter (ASA) at the back end of the

marker grip.

d. Twist the air cylinder clockwise into the ASA until it stops. Use caution as the marker is

now capable of ring after you put the Safety in a re mode. If you do not hear the full

air cylinder engage, the pin valve could be too short or the pin valve seal is damaged,

follow the Air Cylinder Removal instructions on page 14 and take your air cylinder to

a “C5” Certied Airsmith for inspection or contact the cylinder manufacturer.

The barrel blocking device must be installed (see page 5) and the Safety in safe mode (see

page 6).

a. Open the lever of the feed tube.

b. Install the hopper neck into the feed tube. If the t

is too tight, loosen the screw of the feed tube lever

(opposite end of the lever) using a 3/32 hex wrench. If

the t is too loose, tighten the feed tube screw.

c. Close the lever of the feed tube to secure the hopper.

d. With the barrel blocking device installed (page 5), 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.

If you want to remove the feed tube from the marker, push in on the lock button (white arrow)

while sliding the feed tube forward to the circled area of the picatinny rail. The feed tube can

be removed when in this part of the rail.

5. Firing the Marker

b. Turn on the electronics by holding the power button

for 1-2 seconds. The LED ashes green. If it ashes

red, replace the battery (see previous page).

c. Remove the barrel blocking device from the marker.

d. Move the Safety from safe mode to re mode. (re

mode is shown above.)

e. Pull the trigger to re the marker.

f. To turn off the electronics, press and hold the power button until the LED turns red.

Eye Operation

This marker is equipped with a break beam breech sensor also known as “Eyes”. The Eyes

detect whether or not a paintball is in the breech before ring, to prevent chopping partially

loaded paintballs and to maximize rate of re. The Eyes can be switched on or off by tapping

the power button while the marker is powered up (the LED changes its blinking pattern when

eyes are switched on or off, see Eye/LED Status in the following Table). With the Eyes

on, the marker res up to the programmed maximum rate of re, as long as paintballs are

delivered fast enough. With the Eyes off, the marker res at the maximum rate of re whether

or not a paintball is detected. Using the marker with the eyes off is not recommended, and

chopping of paintballs may occur. The Eyes are set to ON whenever the marker is rst

powered up.

LED Indication

The LED changes its blinking pattern in conjunction with the status of the Eyes (See table

for Eye/LED status). The LED also indicates if the Eyes are detecting a ball or not, and also

indicates if the Eyes have detected a malfunction.

Eye Malfunction

An Eye malfunction occurs when the Eyes are on and the beam is broken continuously

between shots. In this malfunction condition, the maximum rate of re is limited to 5 BPS.

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery begins to lose power, the LED stops showing the green color and changes

to red. While performance may vary while the LED is ashing red, the electronics will still

function in this condition until the battery has lost power to the point that it will not cycle the

ring system. NOTE: The Electronics will automatically shut off after 60 minutes of no activity.

Be sure to turn off the Electronics when not in use to preserve battery life.

Unloading Your Marker

The barrel blocking device must be installed (see page 5) and the Safety in safe mode (see

page 6).

1. Eye protection designed for paintball use must be worn by the user and any person

within range.

2. Empty all paintballs from the Hopper.

3. Go to a designated ring area, remove the barrel blocking device, and move the Safety

to re mode.

4. Turn on the Electronics.

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.

6. Return the Safety to safe mode (see page 6).

7. Turn off the Electronics

8. Reinstall the barrel blocking device (see page 5).

9. Read the Air Cylinder Warnings and Safety Tips on pages 13-14 before removing

the air cylinder from your marker (removal instructions - page 14).

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 at

300 feet per second (FPS), or less if required by the

playing eld.

To adjust the marker’s velocity, use the included 1/4 hex wrench in the bottom of the vertical

regulator (white arrow). Turning the hex wrench counterclockwise (CCW) increases the

velocity (higher FPS). Turning clockwise (CW) decreases the velocity (lower FPS).

14). Never attempt to do Programming on a pressurized marker!

Turn on the marker and use a hex wrench to press and release

the Programming Button (arrow at right). The LED ashes an

array of colors. You are now in the main programming menu.

Cycling through the menu - To cycle through the menu

items, pull and release the trigger. Each time the trigger is pulled

and released, a different color code is displayed by the LED:

Firing Mode RED Solid

ROF cap GREEN Solid

Dwell AMBER Solid

Debounce RED Flicker

BIP GREEN Flicker

Ramp Start AMBER Flicker

Ramp Sustain RED Blink

Ramp Reset GREEN Blink

Burst shot count AMBER Blink

Current Value - Upon selecting a menu item, press and release the power button to show

the current setting value. The ashes represent the current setting value; see the setting you

have selected to determine the actual value.

Enter a new value - Press and hold the trigger until the LED goes out. You can now enter

value of the setting by pulling and releasing the trigger quickly. Each time the trigger is pulled

the LED will light up green indicating the value is being increased. When the setting reaches

its maximum limit, the LED glows an Amber color when pulling the trigger. When trigger has

not been pulled for 3seconds, the LED ashes an array of colors indicating that modifying the

setting is stopped. The setting is automatically saved. If the new value entered is less than the

minimum limit for that menu item, the minimum limit for that setting is saved. If the trigger is

not pulled at all, the minimum value for that setting will be saved

Reset to Factory Settings - You can reset programming back to the Factory Default

Settings. Press and hold the programming button for 6-7 seconds. The LED ashes an array

of colors and the board shuts off. The programming is now reset to Factory Default.

Programming Menus

This section discusses the menu items in detail, so that the user fully understands the purpose

and use of each menu item.

Firing Mode

1. Semi-Auto (Factory Default) One Blink

- This semi-automatic ring mode is

available for elds or tournaments which restrict the use of automatic ring modes. In

this ring mode, one pull/release of the trigger res one paintball.

2. Burst* Two Blinks - The marker res a burst of shots for each time the trigger is

pulled at the set Rate of Fire. The programmable range is 2 to 6 shots per burst which is

set by the Burst Shots setting. In Burst mode, the user must re programmed number of

times set by Ramp Start setting (page 12) with time between each trigger pull less than

Ramp Reset setting (below) then the marker will enter Burst and re number of shots

12

E

N

determined by Burst Shot setting (below). Ramp Start shot count will reset after not

ring for the amount of time set by the Ramp Reset setting.

3. Ramp* Three Blinks - If ring the programmed number of times set by Ramp Start

setting and at a rate of trigger pulls per second set by Ramp Sustain setting, then the

marker will re at the maximum set Rate of Fire determined by the ROF Cap setting.

Ramp Start count is reset after not ring for amount of time determined by the Ramp

Reset setting or the Ramp Sustain setting if Ramp Reset is set to 0.

4. Full-Auto* Four Blinks - In Full Auto mode, the user must re the programmed

number of times set by Ramp Start setting with the time between each trigger pull

being less than Ramp Reset setting then marker will enter full auto and re as long as

the user holds down the trigger. Ramp Start shot count will reset after not ring for the

amount of time set by Ramp Reset setting.

The * indicates an enhanced ring mode, requiring at least 3 trigger pulls before the enhanced

ring mode engages. The Ramp Start setting allows users to adjust the number of shots

required to engage.

ROF Cap - (Factory Default Value = 10 BPS) This is the programmed maximum Rate of re

(RoF) in balls per second (BPS). The ROF can be set from 5-10 BPS where 1 blink = 1 BPS).

Dwell - (Factory Default Value = 35 milliseconds (ms); 35 blinks) The Dwell is used to change the

amount of time that power is supplied to the solenoid. The solenoid is the part of the electronics

which actually channels the ow of air to the front of the bolt allowing the marker to re. This

setting directly affects the battery life. Too high of a value will negatively affect battery life. Too

low of a value will may not allow the marker to fully cycle causing low velocity. This setting can

be adjusted from 1-60 ms.

Debounce - (Factory Default Value = 7 milliseconds; 7 blinks) The Debounce menu item is

used to change the amount of time between accepted trigger pulls. Quite simply, this adjusts

the amount of time from one trigger pull being accepted by the electronics to the next trigger

pull that can be accepted. If a Debounce setting is too low, a user may shoot more times than

expected. This is called “Trigger Bounce.” When a paintball marker is red, the marker moves

and vibrates in the user’s hand. This vibration sometimes allows the trigger to reset itself and

trip without the user realizing that his or her nger has actually moved. This menu item can be

updated only with values of 1-50 milliseconds.

Ball in Place (BIP) - (Factory Default Value = 5 ms; 5 blinks) This is the amount of time in

milliseconds that the Eyes must “see” the paintball before ring it. This menu item can be set

from 1 ms to 50 ms.

Ramp Start - (Factory Default Value = 3 trigger pulls; 3 blinks) Number of shots that must

happen before enhanced ring mode kicks in. Limit: 3-8 shots, 1 blink = 1 shot.

Ramp Sustain - (Factory Default Value = 3 trigger pulls per second; 3 blinks) Number of trigger

pulls per second (TPS) that must occur to sustain ramping. This setting only affects the Ramp

ring mode. Limit: 1-12 TPS, # of blinks = TPS.

Ramp Reset - (Factory Default Value = 1 second; 10 blinks) Amount of time after last shot until

Ramp Start shots reset to 0. Limit 0-1 second in tenths of a second. Time = # of blinks x 0.1.

When Ramp Reset is set to 0, Burst and Full Auto re modes will not be allowed to enter the

enhanced state, and will not burst re. When Ramp Reset is set to 0 in Ramp mode, the Ramp

Sustain setting is used to reset the Ramp Start shot count.

Burst Shot - (Factory Default Value = 3 shots; 3 blinks) Number of shots that the marker res

for each trigger pull when in enhanced ring mode Burst. Limit: 2-6 shots, 1 blink = 1 shot.

High Pressure Air Cylinder Warnings

WARNING

The brass or nickel plated cylinder valve (#1) is intended to be

permanently attached to the air cylinder (2).

An air cylinder can y off with enough force to cause serious injury

or death if the cylinder (2) unscrews from a cylinder valve (1).

Refer to the top image at right. 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 adapter of the paintball marker,

when in fact he or she is 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 in the top

image.

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 the bottom image, the cylinder is

starting to unscrew from the cylinder valve and you must

STOP and take the entire unit to a “C5” certied airsmith

for safe removal and/or repair.

NOTE: The cylinder valve should unscrew from the paintball

marker in about 3 or 4 full turns. If you nish the 4

th

full turn

and the cylinder valve is not unscrewed from the paintball

marker, STOP! Take the entire unit to a “C5” certied airsmith for safe removal and/or repair.

Locate a “C5” Certied Airsmith at www.paintball-pti.com.

Whether you have a new or used rellable air cylinder, you are at risk if any of the following

has occurred:

• The valve unit was replaced or altered after purchase.

• The valve unit was removed from the cylinder for any reason.

• Any modication was done to the rellable HPA cylinder.

If any of these conditions has occurred, take your air cylinder to a “C5” Certied Airsmith for

inspection or contact the cylinder manufacturer.

Air Cylinder Safety Tips

SAFETY TIPS to ensure that your air cylinder is safe for play:

• Never use any other gas than high pressure air (HPA).

• Improper use, lling, storage, or disposal of air cylinder may result in property

damage, serious personal injury or death.

• Make sure that any maintenance or modication to any air cylinder is done by a

qualied professional, such as a “C5” certied airsmith.

• All air cylinders must be lled only by properly trained personnel.

• Use appropriate gas for your cylinder. Only use compressed air in a compressed air

cylinder. Never use any other gas than high pressure air (HPA).

• Keep all cylinders out of the reach of children.

• The air cylinder should be inspected and hydrostatically retested at least every 5

years by a DOT licensed agency.

• Keep exposed skin away from escaping gas when installing or removing the air

cylinder, or if the marker or air cylinder is leaking. Compressed air is very cold, and

can cause frostbite under certain conditions.

NOTE: Locate a “C5” certied airsmith at www.paintball-pti.com.

Air Cylinder Removal

1. Read Air Cylinder Warnings (page 13) and Air Cylinder Safety Tips (page 13-14)

before beginning the cylinder removal process.

2. Eye protection designed for paintball use must be worn by the user and any person within

range.

3. Follow the Unloading Your Marker instructions on page 10.

4. Watch the marks on the cylinder and cylinder valve as you turn the cylinder approximately

¾ turn counterclockwise. This allows the air valve pin to close so that no air will enter the

marker.

5. Remove the barrel blocking device. Set the Safety to re mode. Point the marker in a

safe direction, and discharge the remaining gas in the marker by repeatedly pulling the

trigger until the marker stops ring (this may take 4-5 shots). If your marker continues to

re, the cylinder’s pin valve has not closed yet. The cylinder pin valve could be longer than

usual. Because of the variances in cylinder pin valve parts, each cylinder 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 re. Only then remove the air cylinder.

NOTE: If during this step, you turned the air cylinder and it began to leak before you pulled

the trigger, the cylinder O-ring should be checked for damage before any re-assembly (see

Repairing Air Cylinder Leaks below).

6. After the air cylinder is removed, again point and re the marker in a safe direction to verify

the marker is completely discharged of gas.

7. Move the Safety to safe mode (see page 6) and install the barrel blocking device (see

page 5).

Repairing Air Cylinder Leaks

The most common leak occurs from a bad air valve O-ring. To replace a valve O-ring you must

rst remove the bad O-ring and then install a new one. This O-ring is located on the tip of your

air valve. The best valve O-rings are made of urethane. Urethane O-rings are not affected by

high air pressures. These may be purchased from Tippmann or your local paintball dealer.

There is an extra O-ring in the Accessory Pack that came with your marker.

NOTE: If a new air valve O-ring does not resolve an air leak, do not attempt to repair the air

cylinder. Contact Tippmann Sports/GI Sportz, your local paintball dealer, or a “C5” Certied

Airsmith.

Cleaning and Maintenance

• To reduce the chance of an accidental discharge, follow the Unloading Your

Marker

(on page 10) and Air Cylinder Removal (on page 14).

• Eye protection must be worn.

• Do not disassemble a marker while it is pressurized with air.

• Do not pressurize a partially assembled marker.

• Follow warnings listed on the HPA cylinder for handling and storage.

• Familiarize yourself with instructions listed on air cylinder.

• Contact the air cylinder 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 marker’s

O-rings.

To clean the exterior of your paintball marker, use a damp towel to wipe off paint, grease,

and any debris. To clean the inside of the barrel, remove the barrel by unscrewing it from the

Receiver. Insert the tab end of the cable squeegee into barrel. Pull the squeegee through the

barrel to remove debris and paint.

General maintenance on your marker should be performed every 8000-10,000 shots or before the

start of each day of play, whichever comes rst. To perform general maintenance remove the bolt

system as explained in Stryker Series Disassembly Instructions section under Disassembly

of Bolt System

. Apply silicon based grease (Dow 33 or similar) to specic areas in the parts

diagram. This will keep your marker is good working condition. It is unnecessary to disassemble

the rest of your marker for general maintenance. Inspect the air supply valve O-ring, and lubricate

it with a little grease when attaching the air supply cylinder.

Storage

Before storage, unload the marker (page 10) and remove air cylinder (see page 14). Ensure

the Safety is in safe mode (see page 6) and the barrel blocking device is installed (see page

5). Store your marker in a dry area.

When removing your marker out of storage, make sure to keep the Safety in safe mode (see

page 6) and keep the barrel blocking device installed (see page 5).
