Warning
Single stage triggers are very sensitive and
must be operated with special care. In case
of a minimum trigger weight there might be a
malfunction and an increased risk (inadver-
tent shot release). If the sear engagement
is adjusted is too tight and adjusted with a
too low first stage pull or if the first stage is
too short in the case of single stage triggers
the trigger might be released inadvertently if
the cocking lever is closed or if the sports
device is put down with too much force. This
might lead to an inadvertent shot release in
loaded and unsaved condition of the firearm.
8. Change of single stage trigger into
two stage trigger
Adjustment via set screw L. Turn set screw L to
the left (counter-clockwise) until the desired
first stage is reached.
9. Malfunction of the trigger due to
wrong adjustment procedure
If the trigger is not adjusted correctly, mal-
functions may occur. Tampering with the
trigger adjustments will not result in any
success. Therefore proceed as follows:
After every change the function of the trigger
must be checked. When the malfunction is
removed check the desired trigger values and
adjust them again if necessary.
The trigger catches the cocking piston or firing
pin, but the trigger does not release when it
is actuated:
• Make sure that the safety of the trigger is
released.
• The trigger stop set screw T is screwed in
too much. Turn it a few turns to the left
(counter-clockwise) until the cocking piston
or firing pin will release again when the
trigger is actuated.
The trigger does not catch the cocking piston
or firing pin:
• The set screw L (first stage) is screwed in
too much. Turn it a few turns to the left
(counter-clockwise) until the trigger catches
the cocking piston or firing pin again.
• Check to see if the spring (1) is correctly
attached and not defective.
After every change the function of the trigger
must be checked. When the malfunction is
removed check the desired trigger values and
adjust them again if necessary.
Basic adjustment of the trigger
With this procedure all adjustments at the
trigger are zeroed. From this zero position it
is possible to adjust the trigger to your
indiviudal requirements. To zero the trigger
proceed as follows:
• Remove the barreled action from the stock.
• Adjust set screw T in a way that the screw
head lies flush with the external surface of
the trigger housing (5).
• Adjust set screw L in a way that the trigger
support (7) is horizontal.
• Cock the barreled action.
• Adjust the trigger via the referring screws
to your individual requirements.
10. Maintenance
Please see chapter „Cleaning, maintenance,
care, lubrication“.
Dry firing device
The safety lever can also be used as dry firing
device.
• Open the cocking lever and pull it slowly
backwards to the stop.
• Press in safety lever at the “S“ potition. The
dry firing device can now be used.
• Close the cocking lever.
• Release the trigger.
Note
The safety/dry firing device can only be
activated, when the air rifle is cocked.
Compressed Air Cylinder
Handling
The rifle is equipped with an interchangeable
compressed air cylinder. The compressed air
cylinder can be changed whether it is filled
or not. The compressed air cylinder is not
screwed in all the way when it comes from
the factory. To protect the thread of the
compressed air cylinder against dust and
damage please always use the cap.
