1. Safety First
• ALWAYS treat the airgun as though it is loaded and ready to fire and with the same respect you would a firearm.
• ALWAYS store the airgun unloaded.
• ALWAYS store the airgun away from children.
• ALWAYS aim in a SAFE DIRECTION – DO NOT point the airgun at any person or at anything you do not intend to shoot.
• ALWAYS keep the muzzle of the airgun pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to shoot.
• ALWAYS keep the airgun “ON SAFE” until you are ready to shoot (see section 3A).
• ALWAYS check to see if the airgun is “ON SAFE” (see section 3A) and unloaded when getting it from another person.
• ALWAYS have you and others wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• ALWAYS wear shooting glasses over eye glasses if your reading or prescription glasses are not safety glasses.
• ALWAYS place the backstop in a location that will be safe should the backstop fail.
• ALWAYS check your backstop for wear before and after each use. All backstops are subject to wear and will eventually fail. Replace your backstop if
the surface is worn or damaged, or if a ricochet occurs.
• ALWAYS use the proper size BB in your airgun. Check the markings on your airgun to verify the BB size.
• NEVER reuse ammunition.
• NEVER shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The BB may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or something you had not intended
to hit.
• NEVER attempt to disassemble or tamper with your airgun.
• Use an Authorized Service Station, using unauthorized service or repair centers, or modifying the function of your airgun in any way, may be
unsafe and will void your warranty.
• NEVER point the airgun at any person or at anything you do not intend to shoot.

3. Operating the Safety
A. To Put the Airgun “ON SAFE:”
1. Push the safety in and slide all the way toward the “S” for “ON SAfE” (fig. 2). The safety is not “ON SAfE” unless it is pushed
all the way forward.
Like all mechanical devices, an airgun safety can fail. Even when the safety is “ON SAfE”, you should continue to handle the airgun as if it is
“Off SAfE” or fIRE.
NEVER point the airgun at any person. NEVER point the airgun at anything you do not intend to shoot.
B. Take the Airgun “OFF SAFE”
1. Push the safety in and slide all the way back toward the “f” for fIRE or “Off SAfE.” When the Safety button on the right side
of the airgun is all the way back, it is “Off SAfE” and can be fired.

• The airgun is correctly aimed when the front sight blade is positioned in the notch of the rear sight. (fig. 5)
• The top of the front sight blade should be even with the top of the notch in the rear sight. The bulls-eye should appear to rest on the top
of the front sight.

pull the trigger to fire.
