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 Figure 10, 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.
