Step 2. Operating the Safety

A. To Put the Air Rifle "ON SAFE:"

• Locate the safety on top of the receiver.
• Push the safety back towards the butt end of the stock (Fig. 2).

The safety is not

"On Safe" unless it is pushed all the way back towards the butt of the stock and
the RED dot is not showing. The air rifle will not fire when "On Safe".

Even when the safety is "On Safe", you should continue to handle the air rifle
safely. Do not ever point the air rifle at any person. Do not ever point the air rifle
at anything you do not intend to shoot.

B. To Take the Air Rifle "OFF SAFE":

• Push the safety all the way forward towards the barrel. The air rifle is ready to

fire when "Off Safe".

When you can see the RED dot, the air rifle is "Off Safe" and can be fired.

Step 3. Loading and Unloading BBs

A. Loading BBs

• Make sure the air rifle is "On Safe" (See Step 2A).
• With the air rifle pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION, rotate it so that the top

of the receiver is pointing towards the ground.

• While keeping your hand away from the front of the muzzle, turn the BB

loading knob until the slot in the BB loading knob is aligned with the slot
in the barrel (Fig. 3).

• With the muzzle end of the barrel pointed upward, slowly pour up to 65

BBs through the BB loading port into the BB reservoir.

• Turn the BB loading knob so that the slot is positioned on top of the

barrel.

B. Unloading the BBs

• Make sure your air rifle is not cocked by pointing it in a SAFE

DIRECTION, taking it "Off Safe" (See Step 2B) and squeezing the trigger
to fire.

• Put the air rifle "On Safe" (See Step 2A).
• With the air rifle pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION, rotate it so that the top

of the receiver is pointing towards the ground.

• While keeping your hand away from the front of the muzzle, turn the BB

loading knob until the slot in the BB loading knob is aligned with the slot
in the barrel.

• Rotate the air rifle so that the top of the receiver is now pointing upward.
• Tilt the muzzle end of the barrel downward, and shake the air rifle until

all of the BBs fall out.

• After removing the BBs and while keeping your hands away from the

front of the muzzle, turn the BB loading knob so that the slot in BB
loading knob is positioned on top of the barrel. (Fig. 4).

• Make sure your air rifle is "On Safe" (See Step 2A) and pointed in a SAFE

DIRECTION.

• Cock and fire the air rifle (See Step 4) two times to make sure that no BBs remain in the air rifle.

Step 4. Cocking Your Air Rifle

• Make sure the air rifle is "On Safe." (See Step 2A)
• With the muzzle end of the barrel raised upward (front sight also pointed

upward) in a SAFE DIRECTION, pull the cocking lever all the way outward
until you hear a click (Fig. 5).
NOTE: Raising the muzzle while cocking the air rifle enables a BB to roll
into the firing position.

• Close the cocking lever as shown in Fig. 5, making sure to hold it firmly to

prevent it from springing open and possibly causing injury.

• Your air rifle is now ready to fire.

Step 5. Aiming and Firing Safely
A. Aiming and Firing the Air rifle

• You and others with you should always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• Always aim your air rifle in a SAFE DIRECTION. When you are sure of your target and backstop, and the area around the

target is clear, take the air rifle "Off Safe" (See Step 2B) and squeeze the trigger to fire.

• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water.The BB may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or something

you had not intended to hit.

• Always choose your target carefully. It is best to shoot at paper bullseye

targets which are attached to a safe backstop such as the Crosman 850
Target Trap. A loosely hung piece of carpet or canvass should be hung
behind the Target Trap to prevent ricochet should you miss the backstop.

• Your backstop should be checked for wear before and after each use.

Replace your backstop if the surface is worn or damaged or if a ricochet
occurs.

• Your air rifle is designed for target shooting and is suited for both indoor

and outdoor use. Always remember to place your target carefully. THINK
about what you will hit if you miss the target.

• The air rifle is correctly aimed when the front sight blade is positioned

exactly in the notch of the rear sight. The top of the front sight blade should
be even with the top of the notch in the rear sight. The bullseye should
appear to rest on the top of the front sight (Fig. 6).

B. Sight Adjustment

The rear sight may be adjusted to shoot higher or lower (elevation). Move
the rear sight elevator forward to make the BB hit higher on the target.
Move the rear sight elevator back to make the BB hit lower on the target.
When moving the elevator, slightly lift the rear sight and reset it on the
desired notch in the elevator (Fig. 7).

Step 6. Removing a Jammed BB

• Do not reload the air rifle.
• With the air rifle "On Safe" (See S tep 2A), pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION,

and making sure to keep your hands away from the front of the muzzle, turn
the BB loading knob so that the slot in the BB loading knob is positioned
a p p r oximately 90° to the left or right of the top of the barrel (Fig. 8).

• Carefully pull the BB tube from the barrel housing as shown in Fig. 8.

N OT E : If the BB loading knob is turned to the proper position, you should
be able to easily remove the BB tube from the barrel housing without force.

• Insert a ramrod of the proper size into the breech end of the BB tube and

carefully push the jammed BB out the muzzle end of the BB tube as shown
in Fig. 8
.

• Do not try to reuse that BB.
• With the air rifle pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION, and being sure to keep your hands away from the front of the muzzle,

replace the BB tube by inserting it into the barrel so that the slot in the BB loading knob is positioned approximately 90°
to the left or right of the top of the barrel.

• Gently push the BB tube into the barrel, being careful not to force it into place, which could possibly result in pinching

your fingers. (If the slot in the BB loading knob is turned to the proper position, you should be able to easily push the
BB tube back into the barrel.)

Make sure the BB tube is locked securely into place and the slot in the BB loading knob is returned so that it is

positioned at the top of the barrel.

If you are not able to unjam your air rifle by following this procedure take no further action. Crosman Corporation or an

Authorized Service Station will unjam your air rifle (no cost during the warranty period).

Step 7. Maintaining Your Air Rifle

• Add two drops of Crosman Crosman 0241 PELLGUNOIL® lubricating oil

every 300 to 400 shots where indicated (Fig. 9). DO NOT use a petroleum
distillate based oil or solvent and DO NOT over-oil as this can cause
damage to your air rifle.

• If the accuracy of your air rifle falls off, run a firm but free fitting patch

through the barrel. Be sure to use a ramrod of the proper size that will not
damage the barrel.

• Tampering with the air rifle or attempts to change the air rifle in any way may make it unsafe to use and will void the

warranty.

• If you drop your air rifle, check to see that it works properly before you use it again. If anything seems changed, like a

shorter or weaker trigger pull, this may mean worn out or broken parts. Call Customer Service at Crosman for assistance
before using your air rifle again.

Step 8. Reviewing Safety

• Do not ever point the air rifle at any person. Do not ever point the air rifle at anything you do not intend to shoot.
• Always treat the air rifle as though it is loaded and with the same respect you would a firearm.
• Always aim in a SAFE DIRECTION. Always keep the muzzle of the air rifle pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Always keep the air rifle "On Safe" until you are ready to shoot in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Always check to see if the air rifle is "On Safe" and unloaded when getting it from another person or from storage.
• Always keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to shoot.
• You and others with you should always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• Use BBs only. Never reuse BBs.
• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water.The BB may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or something

you had not intended to hit.

• Replace the backstop if it becomes worn. Place the backstop in a location that will be safe should the backstop fail.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or tamper with your air rifle. Use an Authorized Service Station or return it to the factory

for repair.

• Do not put the air rifle away loaded. Make sure ALL of the BBs are unloaded from the air rifle. (See Step 3B)
• Always store this air rifle in a secure location.
