Step 8. FIRE

After making sure the gun is pointed in a safe direction, gently (but firmly) squeeze the trigger.

Repeat Steps 1 through 8 to continue shooting, using the appropriate loading procedure.

NOTE: To

fire, bolt must be completely closed as indicated in Step 5.

WARNING:

If a pellet does not fire after completing the operation steps, the

gun is jammed. This is a dangerous condition.

Open the bolt and put “ON” trigger safety immediately. If the bolt is not completely closed, do

not try to close it until after opening it by pulling the bolt handle all the way back. The gun will not

fire a projectile when the bolt is completely open.

Keep the gun pointed in a safe direction and perform the following steps.

1. Open bolt.

2. Put trigger safety “ON”.

3. Pump the gun, close bolt and with gun pointed in a safe direction, take the trigger safety

“OFF” and fire the gun.
If the pellet still does not fire, follow these steps carefully:
1. Open bolt

2. Put the trigger safety “ON” (no red showing)

3. Clear barrel by running a cleaning rod through from the muzzle end. Be careful not to

damage the bolt tip by pushing the rod through too hard. Do not re-use the pellet.

4. Repeat operation steps 1 through 8. If after following the firing procedure the projectile is

not fired, return your gun to Daisy (See

“REPAIR OF DAISY GUNS” section).

UNLOAD PELLETS:

The bolt does not extract a pellet. You must shoot the pellet out if a safe target is

available. If a safe target is not available, put trigger safety “ON” (no red showing), open bolt,

insert a cleaning rod in the muzzle end and push the pellet out of the barrel. Invert the gun so

that the pellet can fall out of the feed track. Be careful not to damage the bolt tip by pushing

the rod through too hard. Do not reuse the pellet.

WARNING:

Never assume gun is empty of projectiles. Always point the gun in a safe

direction.

AMMUNITION:

Use only .177 caliber (4.5mm) lead air gun pellets. Daisy No. 557 match pellets are excellent for

practice and competition. Serious competitors may choose AVANTI No. 357 Competition Diablo

match target pellets. These pellets are uniform in size with minimal weight variations. The flat wad-

cutting designed head will punch a clean hole to provide for easier and more accurate scoring.

AVANTI pellets are engineered to produce maximum accuracy in the Avanti Elite, model 753,

Competition Pellet Rifle.
