Safety standards information is available from the American Society for Testing and Materials, 100 Barr Harbor Drive , West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959; phone 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 request is made . PMI Piranha ™ 3 OPERATING THE PMI PIRANHA™ PAINTBALL MARKER WARNING Every person within range of an area where a paintball marker is in use must wear protective goggles and headgear specifically designed for paintball. 1. Attach threaded barrel firmly to marker. 2. At this time, do not attach power 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 rear of the marker until the cocking mechanism locks back in the cocked position. Figures 1 and 2. 5. Squeeze the trigger with an even pressure. The cocking knob will snap forward into the uncocked position. 6. Attach feed tube elbow and empty loader. If the feed tube elbow is difficult to attach, run hot water over the elbow or soak it in hot water for a minute, which will help the elbow expand for easier attachment.When the elbow cools, the snug fit will help the loader remain in position. Figure 1 Pull Back 7. Cock the marker. Figure 2 Fully Cocked WARNING The power system contains compressed gas or air when pressurized. Never disassemble marker until removing all gas or air from the power system. Rules for safe handling of compressed gas or air must be followed at all times . PMI Piranha ™ 4 8. Before attaching power source, read and understand the section in this manual on “Compressed Gas/Air”. Follow safety rules for handling compressed gas/air. If any leak occurs in the power system, 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 . Vertical air : The power source is attached by screwing the threads of the tank or power source adapter into the threaded ASA, forward of the trigger frame. Bottom line: The power source is attached by screwing the threads of the tank or power source adapter into the threaded bottom line ASA at the base of the grip. WARNING 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. 9. Test for function after attaching power source: Squeeze the trigger. The marker should shoot air and the cocking knob should cycle forward and back, stopping in the cocked position, after each trigger squeeze . Repeat several times. The PMI Piranha™ semi-automatic marker shoots one paintball for each squeeze of the trigger, and recocks itself after each shot. 10. Following safety rules, paintballs may be loaded. WARNING Before disassembly, storage, or transport of the marker, remove all paintballs from the marker, barrel, and loader ; remove power source; and remove all gas or air from the power system. Insert barrel plug and put mechanical safety in “no shoot” position. The safety is a small push-button on the left side of the marker above the trigger.When the safety is “on” the red o-ring around the safety is not visible and the marker should not shoot. Questions about the operation of the PMI Piranha™ paintball marker may be directed to: Pursuit Marketing, Inc., 5035 River Road, Schiller Park, IL 60176 USA ; phone 847.233.9900; www.pminetwork.com PMI Piranha ™ 5 COMPRESSED GAS/AIR The PMI Piranha™ paintball marker may be powered by CO2, regulated compressed air, or regulated nitrogen. From the source of gas or air through the entire power system, there are varying pressures that are applied to the marker and the components of the power system. THE SAFETY RULES FOR HANDLING COMPRESSED GAS OR AIR MUST BE FOLLOWED AT ALL TIMES. OPERATING PRESSURE AND INPUT PRESSURE Operating pressure range: 650 p.s.i. to 800 p.s.i. Recommended maximum input pressure is 800 p.s.i. Do not exceed recommended pressures. When using a regulator in the marker’s power system, follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the regulator. 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. Do not attach anything to this marker that has a “check valve” or other device which does not allow complete draining of gas or air from the power system when the power source is detached. WARNING DO NOT EXCEED RECOMMENDED INPUT OR OPERATING PRESSURE. Figure 3 Valve-cylinder connection. VALVE-CYLINDER CONNECTION The valve on a cylinder is to remain screwed into the cylinder; Figures 3,4. Should it loosen, the cylinder may detach from the valve with extremely dangerous force. 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 take to qualified personnel for inspection. Figure 4 Valve-cylinder connection. PMI Piranha ™ 6 During filling, if any looseness or leak is detected between the valve and the cylinder, filling must stop immediately. Drain cylinder and immediately take to qualified personnel for inspection. WARNING 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’S POWER SYSTEM 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 properly rated disk only. A scale must be used for all CO2 fills to prevent an overfill. A pressure gauge must be used for all compressed gas or air fills to prevent an overfill. Figure 5 Safety burst disk. 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. WARNING 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. PMI Piranha ™ 7 VELOCITY ADJUSTMENT ON THE PMI PIRANHA™ WARNING 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 power source is refilled or changed, any time the barrel or any part in the power system is changed, and upon request of any player or game official. 1. Chronograph the marker using standard chronograph procedures and following safety rules. Shooting velocity will vary based upon many factors. 2. Adjust velocity by using a 3/16" allen wrench to turn the velocity adjuster. Figure 6. Turn adjuster clockwise to raise velocity. Turn adjuster counterclockwise to lower velocity. Figure 7. Turning the velocity adjuster changes the amount of tension on the hammer spring. The hammer spring may be changed for additional velocity adjustment; insert stiffer spring to raise velocity and less stiff spring to lower velocity (red spring is stiffer than blue spring). Increases velocity Figure 6 3/16" allen is used to adjust velocity. PMI Piranha ™ 8 Decreases velocity Figure 7 Clockwise increases velocity. Counterclockwise reduces velocity. The hammer spring assembled with the PMI Piranha™ paintball marker is intended to provide appropriate shooting velocity for most outdoor paintball game situations and will provide a range of velocities suitable for most conditions. Shooting velocity will vary based upon form of regulated compressed gas or air used to power the marker, outside temperature, and other factors . Additional hammer springs of varying spring stiffness are available for further velocity adjustment. DO NOT EXCEED 300 FEET PER SECOND (fps) VELOCITY. The PMI Piranha™ paintball marker power system may be used with CO2, regulated nitrogen, or regulated compressed air. Operating pressure range: 650 p.s.i. to 800 p.s.i. Recommended maximum input pressure is 800 p.s.i. DO NOT EXCEED RECOMMENDED INPUT PRESSURE. 3. Chronograph the marker after every velocity adjustment. 4. Chronograph the marker at regular intervals during the day, as well as any time the power source is refilled or changed, any time the barrel or any part in the power system is changed, and upon request of any player or game official.
