PAINTBALL BASIC SAFETY RULES

SAFETY FIRST!

Always wear protective goggles and headgear specifically designed for paintball when shooting this or

any paintball marker.

Every person within range of a paintball marker is in use must wear protective goggles and headgear specifically

designed for paintball.

Operate a paintball marker only in areas where it is safe and lawful to do so.

Misuse of this paintball marker can result in criminal penalties, including jail time.

This marker is intended for sale to adults 18 years of age or older only. Adult supervision is recommended at all

times whenever a minor is handling this marker in any manner.

During game play, follow referee’s instructions and all field safety rules. Avoid shooting at a player’s

head, neck, or groin area.

Play paintball only where the rules of safe paintball play are followed.

All paintball markers must be chronographed regularly. Adjust marker to shoot paintballs at a velocity less than

300 feet per second (fps) and that does not exceed the velocity limit set by the paintball park where the marker

is in use. Chronograph the marker at regular intervals during the day, as well as any time the air source is refilled

or changed, any time the barrel is changed, and upon request of any player or game official.

There is always a chance that a paintball is lodged in the barrel of the marker even when it is not visible in the

chamber. To check if the marker is unloaded: remove air system and shoot marker in a safe

direction. Remove hopper, visually inspect chamber for a paintball, remove and inspect barrel for the presence of

a paintball. Never look down the barrel of any paintball marker once the barrel is screwed into the marker.

Markers with regulators hold pressure even after tank is removed. Shoot marker in a safe direction after tank is

removed to de-gas it completely.

The PCS™US«5®paintball marker is not a toy. Misuse may cause serious injury or death.

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

range. Read this operator’s manual completely before loading, pressurizing or operating the

PCS™US«5®paintball marker.

This paintball marker operates using compressed gas or air at specified pressure ranges. Follow safety

procedures when handling compressed gas or air. All filling of compressed gas or air cylinders must be

done by qualified persons.

Always cock marker before attaching air or gas source to it. Failure to always cock marker before

attaching air to it may cause accidental firing or discharge of paintballs.

Follow the rules of safe marker handling: Keep finger off trigger until ready to shoot. Keep muzzle

pointed in a safe direction. In addition, firmly insert a barrel plug or barrel bag into the muzzle and

push the electronic or mechanical safety “on” when the marker is not in use and when in any non-

shooting area.

Paintball markers with electronic frames have extremely sensitive triggers. Take extra safety precautions

anytime handling or shooting an electronic paintball marker. To avoid accidentally firing the marker,

keep the marker off until you are ready to fire.

Never shoot at domestic animals or wildlife.

Never mark objects outside the confines of the game or authorized shooting areas.

Never look down the barrel of the marker.

Never aim or shoot a paintball marker (loaded or unloaded) toward any person who is not wearing

protective goggles and headgear specifically designed for paintball.

Before disassembly, storage, or transport of the marker, remove all paintballs from the marker, barrel,

and loader; remove air source; and remove all gas or air from the marker. Insert barrel plug and put

mechanical safety in “no shoot” position.

Carry marker in case or sturdy bag when in public.

Safely and securely store marker to prevent access to it by unauthorized persons.

PAINTBALL BASIC SAFETY RULES

Safety standards information is available from the American Society for Testing and Materials, 100 Barr

Harbor Drive, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959; phone 1.610.832.9500; www.astm.org. “Standard Practice

for Paintball Field Operation” is publication F1777-97, and “Standard Specification for Eye Protective Devices

for Paintball Sports” is publication F1776-97; inquire about additional publications which may be available

at the time your request is made.

1. Attach threaded barrel firmly to marker.

2. At this time, do not attach air source or loader and do not

load paintballs into marker.

3. Insert barrel plug firmly into barrel.

4. Pull the cocking knob straight back from the left side of the marker

until the cocking mechanism locks back in the cocked position. See

Figure 1. Always cock marker before airing it up. During cocking the

cocking rod will recoil or spring back forward once released and will

only move slightly during marker operation. See Figure 2.

5. Push safety “off” (see page 12), and turn the marker “on”

(see page 13) if it is an electronic trigger frame.

6. Squeeze the trigger with an even pressure and listen as the marker

un-cocks. The PCS™US«5® needs air to recock. Electronic markers

must be charged before operation. See page 15.

7. Cock the marker again.

Figure 1. Pull Back

Figure 2. Fully Cocked

The marker contains compressed gas or air when pressurized. Never disassemble marker until removing all

gas or air from the system. Rules for safe handling of compressed gas or air must be followed at all times.

operating the pcs™us«5®marker

Always cock marker before attaching air source. Marker can discharge if air source is attached before

marker is cocked.

Every person within range of an area where a paintball marker is in use must wear protective goggles

and headgear specifically designed for paintball.

operating the pcs™us«5®marker

8. Before attaching air source, read and understand the section in this manual on “Compressed Gas/Air” (Found

on page 8 & 9). Follow safety rules for handling compressed gas/air. If any leak occurs in the marker, refer to

troubleshooting guide or to a qualified airsmith. Use only cylinders for compressed gas or air that comply with

all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to those of the U.S. Department of Transportation,

OSHA, Compressed Gas Association, and/or American Society for Testing and Materials.

9. Bottom line: First check the tank O-ring for rips or tears, then attach the air source by screwing the

threads of the tank or air source adapter into the threaded bottom line ASA at the base of the grip. Make

sure marker is cocked before attaching air. If leaks occur, recheck tank O-ring. If damaged, replace.

When cocking the pressurized marker do not release the cocking knob until after the cocking mechanism

has locked back into the cocked position; releasing the cocking knob during cocking can cause the marker

to shoot.

10. With goggles on, test for function after attaching air source. Squeeze the trigger. The marker should shoot.

Repeat several times.

11. Turn the marker off (AEC version) and push the safety in (both versions). Paintballs may then be loaded.

Before disassembly, storage or transport of the marker, remove air source first, then remove all paintballs

from the marker, barrel, and loader. Remove all gas or air from the marker. Insert barrel plug and push

the safety in so it is engaged.

The PCS™US«5®semi-automatic marker shoots one paintball for each squeeze of the trigger, and

recocks itself after each shot. See page 13 if you have a US«5®with an Advanced Electronic Clip (AEC) for

the different modes of fire.

Figure 3. Valve-cylinder

connection.

Figure 4. Valve-cylinder

connection.

COMPRESSED GAS/AIR

The PCS™US«5®paintball marker may be powered by CO2, regulated compressed air, or regulated nitrogen.

The safety rules for handling compressed gas or air must be followed at all times.

OPERATING PRESSURE AND INPUT PRESSURE

• Operating pressure range: 600 to 1000 p.s.i.

• Recommended maximum input pressure is 1000 p.s.i.

• Do not exceed recommended pressures.

Do not leave cylinder or pressurized marker in direct sunlight or exposed to heat source.

Increased temperature will increase the pressure of compressed gas or air to dangerous levels.

Do not exceed recommended input or operating pressure.

VALVE-CYLINDER CONNECTION

The valve on a cylinder is to remain screwed into the cylinder; Figures 3

and 4. Should it loosen, the cylinder may detach from the valve with

extremely dangerous force. Call manufacturer or take to qualified

personnel for inspection.

Every time a cylinder is filled, the connection between the valve and

cylinder must be inspected. If any looseness or leak is detected

between the valve and the cylinder, do not fill. Drain cylinder and

call manufacturer or take to qualified personnel for inspection.

During filling, if any looseness or leak is detected between the valve

and the cylinder, filling must stop immediately. Drain cylinder and

call manufacturer or take to qualified personnel for inspection.

Figure 5. Safety burst disk.

A compressed gas or air cylinder is a pressure vessel. Follow rules for safe handling of compressed gas or

air. All filling of compressed gas or air cylinders, and all repairs to a marker or its components must be

performed by qualified personnel.

FILLING COMPRESSED GAS/AIR

An overfill of any compressed gas or air cylinder can cause the safety burst

disk (Figure 5) on the cylinder to burst, or the cylinder itself to rupture.

A cylinder may rupture with extremely dangerous force. Use a properly rated

disk only. Inspect the burst disc for a vent hole. If no hole is present contact

a local store or PMI immediately. DO NOT FILL!

A scale must be used for all CO2fills to prevent an overfill. A pressure gauge

must be used for all compressed gas or air fills to prevent an overfill.

Fills must be performed by qualified personnel. A cylinder must not be filled

beyond the cylinder’s capacity per the U.S. Department of Transportation. A

cylinder’s rated capacity appears on the cylinder itself.

Do not overfill any cylinder. An overfill can cause the safety burst disk or the cylinder itself to rupture.

HYDROSTATIC TESTING DATE

Many cylinders are required by the U.S. Department of Transportation to be hydro-tested at periodic

intervals, with the interval varying according to cylinder type. The date of the cylinder’s initial or later

testing appears on the cylinder. A cylinder that is out of date for hydrostatic testing must not be filled

or used.

COMPRESSED AIR/GAS

All paintball markers must be chronographed regularly. Adjust marker to shoot paintballs at a velocity

that is less than 300 feet per second (fps) and that does not exceed the velocity limit set by the

paintball park where the marker is in use.

Chronograph the marker at regular intervals during the day, as well as any time the air source is

refilled or changed, any time the barrel or any part in the marker is changed, and upon request of any

player or game official.

Figure 6. 1

/ 8" allen wrench is used to

adjust velocity.

VELOCITY ADJUSTMENT

Figure 7. Clockwise decreases velocity.

Counterclockwise increases velocity.

1. Chronograph the marker using standard chronograph procedures and following safety rules. Shooting

velocity will vary based upon many factors, such as paint, weather, and air system.

2. Adjust velocity by using a 1

/ 8" allen wrench (provided) to turn the velocity adjuster on the right side

of marker. See Figure 6. Turn adjuster clockwise to lower velocity. Turn adjuster counter-clockwise to

raise velocity. See Figure 7. Turning the velocity adjuster changes the amount of air flowing through

the valve.

3. Chronograph the marker after every velocity adjustment.

4. Chronograph the marker at regular intervals during the day, as well as any time the air source is

refilled or changed, any time the barrel or any part in the marker is changed, and upon request of

any player or game official.
