CHECK THE FOLLOWING IF A BB DOES NOT FIRE

1. 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.
2. Was the safety “OFF” – RED SHOWING, when the trigger was pulled? If not,

repeat the operation steps.
3. 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.
4. Refer to the section on CO2 characteristics.
5. If the pistol still does not fire, refer to warning below.
WARNING: If the pistol still fails to shoot a projectile after checking the five

items noted, there is a malfunction in the pistol. This could represent a dangerous

condition. There could be a BB in the pistol even though a BB did not shoot out.

This could cause the user to mistakenly believe the pistol is unloaded. 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 DEPARTMENT. Refer to section on REPAIR OF POWERLINE® AIR PISTOLS.

HOW TO UNLOAD

After a shooting session 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. (See below)
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 the gun “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING.

REMOVE CO2 CYLINDER

1. Put safety “ON SAFE” -

NO RED SHOWING (Fig. 2).
2. With the butt of the grip cover

removed, slowly open the puncture

screw until any remaining CO2 gas is

discharged. (Fig.11)
3. Remove the CO2 cylinder from pistol.
CAUTION: Never attempt to reuse a cylinder for any purpose.

REMOVE BBs FROM THE BUILT-IN MAGAZINE

1. Put “ON” safe – NO RED SHOWING. (Operation Step 1).
2. Push and hold the Built-in Magazine follower fully toward the front.
3. Invert the gun and let the BBs fall out of the magazine through the loading

port.
4. 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.12).
CAUTION: Do not assume that

the gun is empty of ammunition.

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 the safety “ON” safe

– NO RED SHOWING. (Operation Step 1) and 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 condi-

tions that can produce effects on the pistol’s performance. These conditions

include operation and/or storage of the pistol at temperatures that are consid-

erably higher or lower than normal outdoor temperatures (60 – 70 degrees F),

as well as conditions of rapid fire.
1. High temperatures can produce pressure in the CO2 cylinder and gun 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 temperatures should not exceed 105

degrees F (40 degrees 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 temperature conditions or direct sunlight for any

extended period of time.
2. Rapid firing of the gun will cause temperature reduction in the pistol and

CO2 gas. This will result in lower ammunition 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 allow-

ing 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 de-

crease. This can be detrimental to shooting accuracy. The faster the gun is shot,

the fewer shots you will get per CO2 cylinder.
4. Care should be exercised to ensure that the gun is not shot with a CO2 cylinder

that is low in pressure because a BB may not be expelled from the barrel.
CAUTION: Shooting the gun with low CO2 pressure could result in ammuni-

tion lodging in the barrel.

STORAGE

Store your pistol unloaded. Put “ON” safe , remove CO2 cylinder and remove

all BBs from the pistol. Keep pistol away from children and untrained shoot-

ers. Store ammunition, 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 TEMPERA-

TURES (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 pistol 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 pistol and it will serve you well.
CAUTION: Never attempt to clean the pistol until it is “ON” safe – NO RED

SHOWING, the CO2 cylinder has been removed, and the BBs have been removed

from the Built-in Magazine.

STEP 2. INSERT CO2 CYLINDER

WARNING: Use only CO2

cylinders which are the 12 gram type.

Any attempt to use other sizes and/

or cylinders containing other types of

gas could be extremely dangerous.

The use of gases other than CO2 could

result in an explosion or could rupture

the gun, causing serious injury.
1. Put “ON” safety - NO RED SHOWING.
2. Remove the butt of the grip by

pulling down (Fig. 3).
3. Turn puncture screw counterclock-

wise until there is enough room to

insert a CO2 cylinder.
4. Insert the small end of the CO2

cylinder into the grip. Hold the gun

in an inverted position with the grip

pointing up and the muzzle pointing

away from you as shown (Fig. 4).
5. While continuing to hold gun in an

inverted position, point the muzzle in

a safe direction and turn the puncture

screw clockwise to puncture the CO2

cylinder. (Fig. 5) Continue turning the

screw RAPIDLY until finger tight.

NOTE: A slight seepage of CO2 gas

may occur until puncture screw is tight.
WARNING: Be sure the muzzle

is pointed in a safe direction when

puncturing the CO2 cylinder. In the

event that a seal temporarily leaks

while the CO2 is being punctured, the

CO2 gas may escape through the bar-

rel. If ammunition is jammed in the

barrel from prior shooting, this could

result in a projectile being shot.

STEP 3. FILL THE BUILT-IN MAGAZINE WITH A MAXIMUM OF 21 BBs

1. Always point gun in a safe direction.

Insure that the gun is “ON” safe – NO

RED SHOWING (see Operation Step 1).
2. Move the Built-in Magazine BB

follower fully forward and hold in

position as shown. (Fig. 6)

NOTE: Make sure the follower is held

fully forward toward the muzzle of

the gun and the spring is clear of the

loading port before attempting to

load BBs.
3. Once the Magazine BB follower is

held fully forward, a maximum of 21

.177 caliber BBs can be individually

inserted into the Magazine Loading

Port as shown. (Fig. 7)
CAUTION: Use only Precision

Max™ BBs by Daisy®, or similar quality

BBs that are labeled as such. Do not

use lead pellets, buck shot, darts, ball

bearings, or other foreign objects

because they can cause injury to

someone or may damage and/or jam

the pistol.
4. After the Built-in Magazine has

been loaded with a maximum of 21

BBs, slowly release the Built-in

Magazine BB follower and allow it to rest up against the BBs. This will allow

the BBs to be under spring tension (Fig. 8).
WARNING: Once the Built-in Magazine is loaded with BBs it is considered

to be loaded, so use extreme caution in handling the gun. Keep the gun

pointed in a safe direction. Never point the gun at anyone. Always treat the

gun as if it were loaded and ready to fire.

STEP 4. AIM AT A SAFE TARGET

To be a consistent marksman, use the correct sight picture each time you fire

the pistol (Fig. 9).
CAUTION: Due to the power of

this CO2 pistol, use extra caution in

selecting a safe target and proper

backstop based on the ammunition

you’re shooting. Never shoot BBs into

a steel trap designed for pellets. Pick

targets and backstops that will not

cause a ricochet or allow the ammo to

penetrate the backstop. Never shoot

at a flat hard surface or at the surface

of water.

STEP 5. TAKE “OFF” SAFETY – RED SHOWING.

When you are certain that the target,

back stop and surrounding area are safe,

position the safety “OFF” - RED SHOWING

(Fig 10).
WARNING: Use extreme caution

in operating the gun because it is now

ready to fire when the trigger is pulled.

STEP 6. FIRE

The pistol can be safely fired after properly completing the operating steps

mentioned above. After making sure the gun is pointed in a safe direction,

gently but firmly, squeeze the trigger. If you desire to continue shooting, the

operation steps can be repeated until the CO2 cylinder requires replacement.

STEP 7. PUT “ON” SAFETY - NO RED SHOWING.

After firing, return the safety to the “ON” position – NO RED SHOWING (Fig 2).

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.

This safety alert symbol indicates important safety messages in this

manual. When you see this symbol, be alert to the possibility of personal injury

and carefully read the message that follows.

The Model 415 CO

2

PowerLine® Pistol shoots with much more muzzle energy

than the traditional spring air BB gun. More power means greater chance of

serious injury. Use extreme caution when operating this gun.

Although your new PowerLine® Pistol is not a firearm, it has lethal potential

and should be treated with caution and respect due any conventional firearm.

Always remember, the first and most important safety feature 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 accidents.

Guns differ in their operations and you are never ready to fire any gun until

you are thoroughly familiar with it. Read the following operating instructions

and WITHOUT LOADING A PROJECTILE, proceed through the operating steps (dry

firing your gun with CO

2

only several times at a safe target.) This will enable you

to learn to operate the PowerLine® 415 properly and safely.

PRIOR TO OPERATION

Put “ON” SAFE – NO RED SHOWING (refer to Operation Step 1).

OPERATION STEPS:

WARNING: Be sure gun is always pointed in a safe direction.
Step 1. PUT “ON” SAFETY - NO RED SHOWING

Step 2. INSERT CO2 CYLINDER

Step 3. FILL BUILT-IN MAGAZINE WITH A MAXIMUM OF 21 BBs

Step 4. AIM AT A SAFE TARGET

Step 5. TAKE “OFF” SAFETY - RED SHOWING

Step 6. FIRE

Step 7. PUT “ON” SAFETY - NO RED SHOWING
The pistol can continue to be shot until the built-in magazine is empty or the

CO2 cylinder need to be replaced. The Model 415 will obtain approximately 150

shots per CO2 cylinder. Refer to section on CO2 Characteristics.

NEVER STORE A LOADED GUN

At the end of a shooting session, as a safety precaution, always put the safety in

the “S” safe position - NO RED SHOWING, remove CO2 cylinder, remove BBs from

the gun. Store in a safe place to prevent unauthorized use.

HOW TO OPERATE

WARNING: Be sure gun is always pointed in a safe direction. Never point

the gun at anyone. Always assume and treat the gun as if it were loaded and

ready to fire.

STEP 1. PUT “ON” SAFETY - POSITION SAFETY SO NO RED IS SHOWING.

Rotate the safety toward the “SAFE” position – NO RED SHOWING (Fig. 2). In

this position, the trigger cannot be pulled to fire the gun.
CAUTION: Even when the safety is

“ON” you should continue to handle the

pistol safely. Don’t point the gun at any-

thing that you don’t intend to shoot.

NOTE: The safety is manual and not auto-

matic. It will only do its job when you do

yours. With the index finger out of the

trigger area, move the safety to the

“SAFE” position-NO RED SHOWING (Fig. 2).

REMEMBER, THE BEST SAFETY IS GOOD GUN HANDLING.
