Daisy PowerLine 35 Pink Camo - Manual (Page 6)

STORAGE
Before putting the gun away in a cabinet or gun rack, shoot the
gun at a safe target to make sure the pump system and barrel are
empty. Then, open the bolt and place the trigger safety “ON”, then
close the bolt. Always make sure the gun is empty and the trigger
safety is “ON” before storage; the gun should also be clean, dry and
oiled.
Store projectiles in a separate location from the gun to keep it
away from untrained shooters.
WARNING: Even if you have fired the airgun one or more
times and no BB or pellet was expelled, it does not mean that the
gun is empty of ammo. Continue to treat the airgun as it is loaded.
MODIFICATION
WARNING: The components of this gun were engineered to
deliver optimum performance. Any modification or tampering with a
gun may cause a malfunction and may make it unsafe to use. Any
change in performance, such as a lowered trigger force and short-
ened trigger travel, indicates possible wear, and such gun should be
inspected, replaced or properly repaired by qualified personnel. Any
gun that has been dropped should be checked by qualified person-
nel to insure that its function has not been effected.
WARNING: A gun that is not operating properly may be
dangerous. It should be kept safely from use by anyone until repaired
or destroyed. DO NOT try to take the gun apart. It is difficult to reas-
semble , and improper reassembly can cause a hazardous condition.

INTRODUCING POWERLINE SHOOTING
A MESSAGE TO PARENTS
Included in the material accompanying each new PowerLine are
10 shooting safey rules covering the most important aspects of proper
gun handling. We urge you to follow these rules in assuring that any-
one operating a PowerLine has a thorough understanding of these
rules and is diligent in their practice. Although not a firearm, a
PowerLine is a gun and not a toy. Properly used and maintained, it will
provide many hours of safe, trouble free recreational shooting.
Misused, it can be dangerous. Therefore, we recommend it be
used only by someone sixteen years of age or older and with
adult supervision.
As the proud owner of a new PowerLine gun, you have
become part of an American tradition dating back more than 100
years. Mechanically, a new PowerLine is backed by nearly a century
of engineering know-how and experience in the manufacture of
quality products.
Safe gun handling depends upon proper safety training and the
right attitude toward gun ownership. To help you, we have designed
this booklet to cover the basic facts everyone should understand
before shooting a gun. Take time to study it thoroughly. A proper
understanding of these basics will greatly increase your enjoyment
of the lifetime sport of recreational air gun shooting and, at the same
time, give you the satisfaction of knowing you are properly prepared
to handle an air gun.
If your child becomes the owner of a PowerLine gun, we
strongly urge a formal course of instruction in Shooting Education
for your child. Daisy products are age graded to help you pick the
right product for your child. There are a number of youth and civic
organizations which offer a complete 10 lesson course based on
guidelines developed by the training experts at Daisy and they are
listed in the section of CLUBS AND COMPETITION near the back of
this book. A quick check with them will let you know when the next
course will be starting in your area. If you would like more detailed
information, write: Special Market Programs, Daisy, Box 220,
Rogers, Arkansas 72757 or call 1-800-643-3458.
WHAT IS A PowerLine?
Backed by 100 years of engineering know-how, the design and
craftsmanship of the PowerLine rifles and pistols has advanced to
true gun levels. With much more power than traditional air guns,
their sophistication in performance and operation have brought them
to the attention of even the most serious sport shooters.
In recent years, sport shooters have begun to feel the squeeze
of limited space and money for firearm shooting. The PowerLine
guns remove these limits for both the enthusiast who wants low cost
shooting for year-round training, indoors or out, and dedicated
shooters interested in shoulder-to-shoulder competition. With a
PowerLine gun, looks, heft and performance add up to adult size
shooting right at your doorstep, and at a fraction of the cost of
firearm shooting.
PROPER GUN HANDLING
You may be familiar with the responsibilities of proper gun han-
dling, but the fact that your new PowerLine gun has much more
power than a traditional air gun means extra care is needed. In
reviewing the basic rules of proper gun handling, keep in mind that
"Handling" means every time you touch your gun.
• Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
• Treat every gun as if it were loaded
• Only load or cock a gun when you are shooting
• Anyone shooting or near a shooter should wear shooting
glasses and should be standing behind the shooter.
• Never climb or jump with a gun.
• Avoid ricochet.
• Keep the muzzle clear.
• Guns not in use should always be unloaded.
• Respect other people’s property.
• Check your target and beyond your target.
Almost all of the air gun related accidents occurring in this coun-
try are caused by careless use or misuse of the gun and shooting at
improper targets. These incidents can be eliminated if the shooter
handles the gun properly.
YOUR PowerLine IS A TARGET GUN
Your PowerLine gun has been designed for target shooting and
is suited for use both indoors and out to help you develop your
marksmanship skills. However, your PowerLine gun means greatly
increased velocity and energy, so take care to prepare your target.
Target traps designed for use with low-velocity (less than 350 feet-
per-second) spring-piston BB and pellet guns should not be used
with a PowerLine gun. Always use a target trap designed to pre-
vent ricochet and put extra reinforcement behind your target to com-
pensate for the added power. (See "How to Make an Indoor-Outdoor
Target," page 13).
