BB DOES NOT FIRE

WARNING: If a BB does not fire after completing the operation steps, do not assume that the
gun is unloaded. Keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.
MAKE THE FOLLOWING CHECKS IF A BB DOES NOT FIRE
A.
Did the Built-in Magazine contain .177 cal. Daisy® Precision Max™ or similar quality

BBs? If not, fill the Built-in Magazine with BBs and repeat the operation steps.

B. Was the safety “OFF” – RED SHOWING, when the trigger was pulled? If not, repeat the

operation steps.

C. Was a CO2 cylinder installed? If not, put “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING, and insert a new CO2

cylinder. Repeat the operation steps after the new cylinder is installed.

D. Refer to the section on CO2 characteristics.
E. If the pistol still does not fire, refer to warning below.
WARNING: If the pistol still fails to shoot a BB after checking the five items above, there is a
malfunction in the pistol. This could represent a dangerous condition. There could be BBs in
the pistol even though a BB did not shoot out. Always treat the gun as if it were loaded. At no
time should you look down the barrel of the gun. Put “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING, remove
the CO2 cylinder, and send the pistol directly to DAISY MANUFACTURING SERVICE DEPART-
MENT. Refer to section on REPAIRS OF DAISY GUNS.

HOW TO UNLOAD

After a shooting is complete, the gun should be unloaded before storing it. To unload the gun
always put “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING, remove the CO2 cylinder, and remove the BBs from
the Built-in Magazine.
CAUTION: Even though you have gone through an unloading procedure, continue to treat the
gun as though it were loaded. Don’t point at anything you don’t intend to shoot. Always put
“ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING.
REMOVE CO2 CYLINDER
A.
Put “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING. (Operation Step 1)
B. With the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and the lefthand grip cover still in place, slowly turn

puncture screw counterclockwise allowing any remaining gas to be discharged and continue
turning screw until end stop is reached (Fig. 10).

C. Remove left-hand grip cover by lifting at the bottom of the grip.
D. Remove and properly dispose of CO2 cylinder.
CAUTION: Never attempt to reuse a CO2 cylinder for any purpose.
REMOVE BBs FROM BUILT-IN MAGAZINE
A.
Put “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING. (Operation Step 1)
B. Push and hold the Built-in Magazine follower fully toward the front.
C. Invert the gun and let the BBs fall out of the magazine through the loading port.
D. Look inside the Magazine slot on top of the gun. If a BB is visible, use a ballpoint pen, screw

driver, etc. to remove the BB from the gun as shown (Fig.11).

CAUTION: Do not assume that the gun is empty of BBs when the BBs are removed from the gun.
Verify that all BBs are removed as illustrated in Fig. 11. Always treat the gun as if it were loaded
and ready to fire.

CO2 CHARACTERISTICS

There are occasions when a CO2 pistol may be subjected to abnormal conditions that can produce

effects on the pistol’s performance. These conditions include operation and/or storage of the pistol
at temperatures that are considerably higher or lower than normal outdoor temperatures (60˚-
70˚F), as well as conditions of rapid fire.
1. High temperatures can produce pressure in the CO2 cylinder that is considerably higher than

normal operating pressure. Such increased pressure may prevent the pistol from firing and may
result in permanent damage to the gun. The maximum operating or storage temperature should
not exceed 105˚F (40˚C). This temperature can easily be reached if the gun is left directly in the
sun on a bright, sunny day. Therefore, the shooter should not expose the pistol to high tempera-
ture conditions or direct sunlight for any extended period of time.

2. Rapid firing of the gun will cause temperature reductions in the pistol and CO2 gas. This will result

in lower pellet velocities and may even lower gas pressure enough so that the pistol will not fire.
This condition can be especially apparent when shooting in cold weather. This condition can be
avoided by allowing more time between shots. This permits the gas to increase in temperature
and pressure and produce normal velocities.

3. During rapid fire, the muzzle velocity of each shot can be expected to decrease. This can be

detrimental to shooting accuracy. Also, the faster the gun is shot, the fewer shots you will get per
CO2 cylinder.

4. Care should be exercised to insure that the gun is not shot with a CO2 cylinder that is low in

pressure.

STORAGE

Store your pistol unloaded. Put “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING, remove CO2 cylinder and remove
all BBs from the pistol’s Built-in Magazine. Keep pistol away from children and untrained shooters.
Store BBs, and CO2 cylinders separately from the pistol to keep them from untrained shooters.
WARNING: A CO2 cylinder contains gas under pressure, whether or not it
has been inserted into a gun. If exposed to high temperatures (such as inside of a closed car in
direct sunlight), it could explode. Be sure to store all cylinders in a cool place.

PROPER CARE

With care and periodic cleaning, your Model 15XT will provide many years of shooting enjoyment.
As is the case with conventional firearms, abuse, neglect, and continued exposure to the elements
will impair the performance of any airgun. Learn to take care of your Model 15XT and it will serve
you well.
CAUTION: Never attempt to clean the Model 15XT until the gun is “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING,
the CO2 cylinder has been removed, and the BBs have been removed from the Built-in Magazine.
EXTERIOR PARTS
All the plastic parts may be cleaned with a damp rag and mild soap or detergent. Avoid using
strong detergent, abrasive cleaning compounds or solvents that may scratch or otherwise damage
surfaces. The exposed metal parts should occasion-ally be wiped clean using a soft cloth that is
lightly oiled with clean motor oil.
LUBRICATION
Your Model 15XT was lubricated when built and should not require any additional lubrication.

* With the muzzle pointed upward at the optimum angle
CAUTION: CO2 cylinders may explode at temperatures above 160˚F (71˚ C)
