Step 6. AIM
Point gun toward target. Pick a target backstop
that cannot be penetrated. (Take final sighting
after Step 7, - See Fig. 3 for correct sight picture).
Step 7. TAKE “OFF SAFE”
Take trigger safety “OFF SAFE” by pushing from
right to left so that red is showing. (Take final
sighting at this point) (Fig. 4)
Step 8. FIRE
The gun can be safely fired after properly
completing the operating steps.
IMPORTANT: Do not leave the gun in a pumped
up condition for more than one hour or the air
release valve may be damaged and cause a
permanent leak.
WARNING: If a pellet does not fire after completing the operating steps, the gun is
jammed. This is a dangerous condition.
OPEN THE BOLT AT ONCE, THEN REPEAT ALL OPERATIONS EXCEPT STEP 4 (DO
NOT LOAD A PELLET). IF A PELLET STILL DOES NOT FIRE, FOLLOW THESE STEPS
CAREFULLY:
Step 1. Open bolt.
Step 2. Put trigger safety “ON SAFE”
Step 3. Clear the barrel by running a size .177 cleaning rod through the barrel from
the muzzle end. Be careful not to damage the bolt tip by pushing the rod
through too hard.
Step 4. Repeat the operating steps. Make sure a pellet is fed into the firing
position. If after following the firing procedure the pellet is not fired, return
your gun to the Daisy Service Department. (See “REPAIR OF GUN” section).
UNLOAD PELLETS
The bolt does not extract a pellet. Point the gun in a safe direction and fire, or open the
bolt and insert a .177 cleaning rod in the muzzle
end of the barrel and push the pellet out.
