OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. CO2Charging

Your paint pistol has been equipped with an air

adapter for bulk CO2Screw, CO2tank or

accessory into rear adapter of paint pistol as

shown (See Figure 1).

Use only 12 gram type CO2cartridges 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.

CO2guns should not be used in temperatures

below 40˚ fahrenheit as performance decreases

significantly below this level. CO2cartridges

may explode at temperatures above 160˚ F.

decrease noticeably. When this happens stop

loading and shooting immediately. Completely

release the remaining CO2by slowly unscrew-

ing the CO2tank, (not all the way), allowing the

gas to escape around cartridge. Hold gun

upright and allow CO2tank to fall out of mark-

er. recharge with new tank as described previ-

ously in “loading”.
