Safety Is Your Responsibility

(continued on page 7)

Propane Cylinder Handling and Storage

STEP 4: Hopper Installation

Barrel Sleeve must be installed (see page 2) and safety in

Safe Mode (see page 4) before filling the hopper.

• Make sure that the feed elbow and hopper are clean and

free of any sharp edges to keep paintballs feeding into the

marker properly.

• Install the hopper neck into the feed elbow of your marker

and tighten the hopper down with a 1/8” allen wrench.

NOTE: Do not overtighten or the elbow may break. With the

barrel sleeve installed and safety in Safe Mode, you are now

ready to load your hopper with paintballs. Fill hopper and only

remove barrel sleeve and turn off the safety when ready to shoot.

STEP 1: Installing / Replacing the Battery

This marker needs a good battery to operate. If your battery is

low or dead install a new battery before installing the propane

supply cylinder in STEP 2. To install the AAA battery:

• Do not pressurize a partially assembled paintball marker.

• Make sure marker is unloaded (see page 12).

• Install barrel sleeve (see instructions on page 2).

• Put trigger safety in Safe Mode (see instructions on page 4).

• Remove the 2 screws holding the left grip in place.

• To remove the battery, pull up on the free end of the ribbon

positioned under the battery to lift it out.

• To install battery first lay ribbon across battery holder keeping

loose end free. Next insert new AAA battery on top of ribbon

and into the ignition module battery holder, keeping the

positive (+) end towards the top of the marker.

• Replace left grip and secure with 2 screws to complete

battery installation.

STEP 2: Propane Supply Cylinder Installation

• Do not pressurize a partially assembled paintball marker.

• First install barrel sleeve (see instructions on page 2).

• Next put trigger safety in Safe Mode (see instructions on page 4).

• Hold cylinder upright while attaching. Insert the cylinder valve

end into the regulator and twist cylinder clockwise until it stops.

• Listen and smell for propane leaks, do not fire if leaking.

STEP 3: Priming The Marker:

After any tank installation,

before loading the marker with

paintballs

, you must prime the marker. First remove the barrel

sleeve and turn the safety off. NOTE: Sliding the Forearm Grip

completely to the back position clears the exhaust from the

combustion chamber and allows a paintball to load if there are

paintballs in the hopper / sliding the forearm grip completely to

the forward position fills the combustion chamber with air for

next shot and chambers a paintball if there are paintballs in the

hopper. It is important to make complete pump strokes in order

for the marker to fire properly. Pump and fire the marker in a safe

direction several times until it starts shooting. Reinstall barrel

sleeve and put trigger safety in Safe Mode.

NOTE: Over time as the internal parts of the Regulator break-in

or if the unit has been disassembled for service, the marker

Priming The Marker (continued from page 8)

STEP 5: To Fire The Marker

It is important to make complete pump strokes in order for the

marker to fire properly. Sliding the Forearm Grip completely

back and then sliding it completely forward = 1 Pump. Pump 1

time and pull the trigger to fire 1 shot. Do not pump more than

1 time for each shot which would cause the marker to load

more than 1 paintball and could break a ball in the chamber.

NOTE: It is normal for the marker to become very warm when

shooting.

WARNING

STEP 6: Velocity Adjustment

DO NOT TURN THE VELOCITY ADJUSTMENT SCREW OUT

SO FAR THAT IT PUSHES AGAINST THE END CAP.

Adjustment

Screw

Access

To adjust the velocity up, insert a large flat

head screwdriver through the end cap and into

the large velocity screw slot and turn it inward

or clockwise.

STEP 7: Rear Sight Adjustment

If your paintball is hitting low, slide the rear sight back towards

rear of marker. Do the opposite if paintball is hitting high.

DANGER

Each time you play paintball, the velocity of your paintball

marker should be checked with a chronograph, an instrument

for measuring velocity, prior to playing paintball to verify that

the marker’s velocity is set below 300 feet per second or less

if required by playing field.

To turn the velocity down, turn it out or

counterclockwise - do not turn it out far enough

that it pushes against the inside of the end cap.

may cease to fire during the priming procedure because the

air/fuel mixture needs adjustment. To adjust the air/fuel mixture,

follow the Regulator Adjustment instructions on page 14.

Rear Valve / Piston Cleaning

(continued on page 14)

Unloading Your Marker

Before storing or disassembling be sure to remove paintballs

and propane supply.

• To unload your marker: remove or completely empty the

hopper. Then, point your marker in a safe direction and fire

several times to be sure there are no balls lodged in the

chamber and / or barrel.

•Propane Supply Cylinder Removal: To remove a propane

supply cylinder, turn the cylinder counterclockwise or out.

This allows the propane supply pin valve to close so that no

propane will enter the marker. After the cylinder is removed,

point the marker in a safe direction then pump/fire several

times to make sure there is no propane left in the marker.

• Install barrel sleeve (see page 2) and put trigger safety in Safe

Mode (see instructions on page 4).

Marker / Propane Cylinder Storage

Before storage, unload paintballs and remove propane supply

(see above). Then install Barrel Sleeve (see page 2) and put

your marker in Safe Mode (see page 4). You should store your

marker in a dry area. Before storing your marker make sure

that the marker is cleaned and oiled (see cleaning and

maintenance below) to ensure optimum performance and long

life. Store propane cylinder as outlined in Propane Cylinder

Handling and Storage section on page 7.

When removing your marker out of storage, make sure Barrel

Sleeve is installed (see page 2) and safety is in Safe Mode

(see page 4).

Marker Cleaning and Maintenance

To reduce the chance of accidental discharge: First follow

unloading and propane supply removal instructions (above)

and never disassemble a marker that is under pressure.

• Do not pressurize a partially assembled paintball marker.

• Do not disassemble a marker until it has cooled to room

temperature as internal parts may be extremely hot.

• Follow warnings listed on the propane supply cylinder for

handling and storage.

• Familiarize yourself with instructions listed on propane supply

cylinder and review the Propane Cylinder Handling and

Storage instructions on page 7.

• To clean the exterior of your paintball marker use a damp

towel with water to wipe off paint, oil, and debris. We

recommend using TippmannTM marker oil or other premium

Cleaning and Maintenance (continued from page 12)

Cleaning and Maintenance

(continued on page 13)

gun oil to maintain your marker in good working condition.

Re-oil when necessary.

•Barrel Cleaning: It is important to clean the barrel whenever

you break a paintball. Residue in barrel can burn causing

smoke, more ball breakage and poor performance. It is

not necessary to remove the barrel from marker to clean it.

To clean the barrel: use the special cleaning squeegee that

came with your C3TM marker. Move forearm grip to the rear

position. Press squeegee button to tilt squeegee flat, then

while holding in flat position, insert squeegee completely into

barrel and release button. Pull squeegee out of barrel to

remove debris. Next insert opposite end of cleaning

squeegee to swab the barrel. Repeat as necessary.

•Spark Plug Cleaning: If the spark plug becomes dirty or oily

it may cause the marker to misfire and may cause the

electronics to short out. To clean the Spark Plug:

1) Follow the Unloading The Marker instructions on page 12.

2) Follow the Propane Supply Cylinder Removal instructions

on page 12.

3) Follow the Disassembling the Marker instructions

beginning on page 14.

4) After you remove the Spark Plug, use a cloth to wipe it clean.

Any time the receiver is disassembled clean the Spark Plug.

•Rear Valve / Piston Cleaning: It is important to periodically

clean the Rear Valve and Piston to maintain marker

performance. This cleaning can be performed without

extensive disassembly of the marker.

1) Complete the Unloading The Marker instructions on page 12.

2) Complete the Propane Supply Cylinder Removal instructions

on page 12.

3) With steps 1 and 2 completed proceed as follows:

a) Carefully pull the End Cap from the end of the receiver.

b) Remove the Velocity Adjustment Screw by turning it

counterclockwise with a large flat head screwdriver, then

remove the spring and buffer o-ring.

c) Pull the piston out the back of the marker.

d) Clean the piston with WD-40 and wipe clean. Inspect

the two piston o-rings for wear and replace if necessary.

e) Clean the Rear Valve internal surfaces with WD-40

and wipe clean.

f) Lubricate the Piston o-rings with TippmannTM Marker oil

or other premium marker oil and insert the Piston into

the Rear Valve (closed end of piston goes in first).

g) Insert the spring and buffer o-ring.

DISASSEMBLING YOUR MARKER:

Refer to schematic parts listing pages for additional part

identification as necessary.

1) Unload The Marker (see instructions page 12).

2) Remove Propane Supply Cylinder (see instructions page 12).

3) Barrel Removal: NOTE: When reinstalling the barrel you will

want to align it correctly with the feed elbow so the paintballs

will load properly from the feed elbow into the barrel. Before

removing the barrel and after completing Step 1) and 2) above,

you can check what a proper alignment feels like by pumping

the forearm grip back and then inserting your finger into the

feed elbow to feel where the barrel hole and feeder hole fit

together - when correctly aligned, this will be a smooth transition.

During installation this is how it should feel.

• Loosen receiver bolt , remove push pin , and then slide

front sight/under barrel tube as one piece out of the receiver. 15

Rear Valve / Piston Cleaning (continued from page 13)

Barrel Removal (continued on page 15)

• Slide barrel forward a little bit , until you can remove the

Linkage Arm from the Rear Bolt in the back end of barrel .

Remove Linkage Arm from forearm grip. Pull the barrel out of

the receiver. Next remove the Front Bolt from the back of the

barrel and clean barrel and Front Bolt with water and wipe dry.

Inspect and oil front bolt o-rings (replace if necessary). Install

front bolt back into barrel being careful that bolt end with hole

for linkage arm goes in last and hole aligns with the slot on side

of the barrel (see Barrel Insertion page 19).

You may reassemble the barrel at this time in the reverse

order making sure that the ball hole lines up well with the

feed elbow or continue with receiver disassembly.

WARNING

FIRING YOUR MARKER WITHOUT THE VELOCITY SCREW INSTALLED CAN

CAUSE THE PISTON TO BE EJECTED FROM THE REAR OF THE MARKER.

Regulator Adjustment: Make sure there are no paintballs in

your marker and hopper when you adjust the regulator.

• The regulator controls the air/fuel mixture and the marker will

not fire if the mixture is too rich or too lean. It is set at the

factory for best performance. This setting may need to be

adjusted over time as the internal parts break-in or if the unit

has been disassembled for service.

• The regulator adjustment knob is located at the front of the

regulator body and is adjusted as follows:

1) Turn the adjustment knob clockwise all the way with a 3/16”

allen wrench to completely shut off the flow of gas.

2) Turn the adjustment knob 1/2 turn counterclockwise; pump

the marker several times and attempt to fire in a safe direction.

Repeat this process until the marker fires for the first time -

then go 1/2 turn further. This setting should offer the best

performance (The range between too rich and too lean is

approximately one full turn - the ideal setting is half way

between).

Receiver Disassembly:

•Fuel injector removal: Remove c-clip holding it inside of the

front of Front Valve Body, remove the fuel injector, spring and

spring pin and clean them. Clean, inspect and oil the 4 o-

rings (replace if necessary). Put spring on pin and insert into

fuel injector. Insert pin/spring end first into front valve body

and secure with c-clip (see schematic page 10).

TippmannTM C3TM - Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why should I buy the new C3TM Marker?

Convenience! With over 50,000 shots per 16 ounce tank and

the accessibility of propane cylinders at many retail locations,

paintball players can spend more time playing paintball and less

time trying to fill or find a place to fill their C02 or Nitrogen tank.

2. How does the performance compare to C02 or Nitrogen /

Compressed Air?

Propane has the same velocity range of C02, Nitrogen or

Compressed Air but it is not affected by temperature changes

and it maintains a consistent velocity for every shot.

3. Can I adjust the ball velocity with a C3TM Marker?

Yes. The C3TM Marker has a velocity range similar to any

standard marker. The velocity can be adjusted from

approximately 240 to 310 FPS at the back of the C3TM Marker

using a large flat head screwdriver.

4. Is there really much of a savings using Propane vs. C02

or Nitrogen?

Yes. It costs under $8 for a disposable 16.4-ounce propane

tank, versus $30 to $35 for a 20-ounce CO2 tank. Plus you

have to fill your CO2 tank after every 1,000 shots! To fill your

CO2 tank for 50,000 shots you would have to spend an

additional $250!

5. Is propane safe to use?

Yes, like any fuel source when handled according to the

appropriate safety instructions. Propane is actually a low

pressure gas that uses only a small amount of fuel in an internal

combustion chamber. The propane is never actually released

into the air by the marker and is very safe to use.

6. I noticed that as I was tightening the Propane to the

marker, I detected the smell of Propane. Is this normal?

Yes. As the tank is being threaded into the regulator, a small

amount of gas may escape. The Propane smell will go away

after a few seconds.

7. Where else is propane used?

Propane is used safely in dozens of consumer products like

nail guns, power tools, household appliances, outdoor lighting,

camping equipment and cars. When used in these types of

items or in an internal combustion chamber like the C3TM,

propane is a convenient and effective fuel.

8. What happens if there is a leak in a connection on the

marker?

Simply unhook the propane cylinder from the marker. Contact

WARRANTY REGISTRATION

1. On line at www.tippmann.com.

2. Complete attached registration card and mail to the above

address.

your local dealer or TippmannTM Service and we can fix your

marker. Assuming there is no issue with the propane tank, the

leak is handled the same way as a standard C02 leak.

9. When using the marker I noticed the marker felt warm. Is

this normal?

It is normal for the marker to become very warm when shooting.

10. I see TippmannTM has its own propane fuel; can I use any

standard propane cylinder?

To make it easier for the paintball dealer and consumer, we

have our own TippmannTM branded propane cylinders that we

recommend for use with the C3TM Marker. However, any

standard disposable propane cylinder will fit on the C3TM.

11. Why did TippmannTM launch this as a pump action marker?

This is a very new technology and the pump-action system

worked much better with this type of fuel system. With a pump-

action system, this marker will open the game to new players

who want a quality marker and who do not want to shoot too

much paint at one time or to the serious scenario players who

want to use the C3TM as a stock marker to fine tune their strategies

in scenario style play.

12. What are the plans for a semi automatic?

We are planning many variations and upgrades to the C3TM

Marker but no final time schedule has been developed.

13. What accessories can I add to this marker?

At this time there are no accessories to add to this marker.

Simply add the propane fuel source and a standard ball hopper

and you are ready to go.

14. What happens if I pump the marker more than once, will

I get more power?

No. Extra pumps do not add any extra power but will add a

second ball in the barrel chamber. You want to only pump one

time to avoid getting two or more balls lodged in the barrel.

15. Is there any warranty and who does the repairs?

The C3TM is covered by the standard 1-year TippmannTM

warranty. Many of our Tech Centers will be trained to handle

the repairs of the C3TM or any other TippmannTM marker.

16. Do any fields offer pump-action only areas or

tournaments?

More fields are developing a pump-action or stock area at their

facilities. Many players are now developing groups to play

stock games to work on their scenario strategies or focus on

improving their aim and accuracy.
