This safety alert symbol indicates important safety mes-
sages in this manual. When you see this symbol, be alert to
the possibility of personal injury and carefully read the mes-
sage that follows.
It is your responsibility as the owner of this gun to make
certain that anyone using the gun is instructed in its safe and
proper operation.
As the proud owner of a Daisy air gun, you have become
part of an American tradition which dates back to the time
when your great-grandfather was a small boy. Your new Daisy
gun is the result of more than 100 years experience by Daisy
in the manufacture of quality products.
Although your new Daisy is not a firearm, it is a gun and
should be treated with care and respect. Always remember,
the first and most important safety aspect of any gun is the
shooter. All safeties are mechanical devices and the shooter
is the only part of the system that can make a gun safe--or
unsafe. DON’T DEPEND ON MECHANICAL SAFETIES.
Think ahead and avoid situations that might lead to acci-
dents.
FOR YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS,
READ COMPLETE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO SHOOT GUN. Guns differ in their opera-
tions and you are never ready to fire any gun until you are
thoroughly familiar with it. Read the operating instructions
and WITHOUT LOADING ANY AMMUNITION, proceed sev-
eral times through the operating steps with your gun (dry fire
the gun at a safe target) so that you will be able to operate
the Model 840/841/845 properly and safely.
STEP 1. PUT “ON”
TRIGGER SAFETY
Push trigger safety from left to
right so no red is showing. It is a
good practice to get in the habit of
keeping the trigger safety “ON”
until ready to fire the gun. (Fig. 2)
STEP 2. OPEN BOLT
Tilt muzzle down about
30° and pull bolt handle
rearward. The gun cannot
fire with the bolt open.
(Fig.3)
STEP 3. PUMP
ONE TIME
IMPORTANT: Do not
pump more than one time.
May cause
serious damage to your
gun. This gun was
designed and intended as
a single pump. For greater
safety, we recommend that
the bolt remain open while
pumping, and that you
close the bolt only when
the barrel can be pointed in
a safe direction. Grasp the
forearm at rear and pull down and forward as far as possible,
then return forearm to original closed position. (Fig. 4)
CAUTION: Be sure to grasp forearm firmly as you
close the lever to prevent it from snapping back and causing
possible injury. Also, be careful to keep fingers out of cocking
mechanism when closing lever (See “PINCH POINTS”, Fig. 4).
Never put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to fire.
FILL BB MAGAZINE
The loading door is located on the left side of the receiver.
(Fig. 1) Push door rearward and fill magazine with a maximum
of 350 BBs. Then close door.
