UNLOAD PELLET
The bolt does not extract a pellet. You must put the trigger
safety “ON”, pull the bolt back, insert a cleaning rod in the
muzzle end of the gun and push the pellet out. Be careful not
to damage the bolt tip by pushing the rod through too hard.
AMMUNITION
Use only BBs or .177 cal. (4.5mm) pellets that are labeled as
such. DO NOT use buckshot, ball bearings, or other foreign
objects, as they could damage or jam your gun.
PROPER CARE
The exposed metal
parts (barrel, lever,
screwheads, etc.)
should occasionally be
wiped clean, using a
soft cloth lightly oiled
with clean motor oil.
Use a 10, 20, or 30
weight non-detergent
automotive motor oil. DO NOT use light, household-type oils
or aerosol-type spray lubricants, since they may contain sub-
stances or additives harmful to the rubber seals or other com-
ponents.
The pump piston has a felt wiper ring that should occasion-
ally be oiled. Invert the gun and fully open the forearm lever.
You will see “Oil Here” and an arrow pointing to the felt wiper
which can be seen through a slot in the forward end of the
pump tube. Add two drops of oil to the felt wiper after each
2,000 shots. The forearm lever pivot joints should be sparingly
lubricated by occasionally adding one drop of oil to each pivot
point. (Fig. 12)
STORAGE
Unload ammunition and store it in a separate place from the
gun to keep away from untrained shooters. 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, put “ON” trigger safety. Always make sure the gun
isempty and the trigger safety “ON” before storage; also, the
gun should be clean, dry and oiled.
