Crosman SAMC11 - Manual

1. Learning the Parts of Your New Soft air gun
Learning the names of the parts of your new soft air gun will help you to understand your owner's manual. Use this
manual to increase your enjoyment of this soft air gun.
2. Operating the Safety
A. To Put the Soft Air Gun "ON SAFE"
• Locate the safety on the right side of the soft air gun.
• Push the safety in and all the way forward 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, a soft air gun safety can fail. Even when the safety is "ON SAFE", you
should continue to handle the soft air gun safely. NEVER point the soft air gun at any person. NEVER point the soft air gun at anything
you do not intend to shoot.
B. To Take the Soft air gun "OFF SAFE"
• Push the safety in and all the way backward toward the "F" for "OFF SAFE".
• The soft air gun is ready to fire when "OFF SAFE". When the safety is all the way back the soft air gun is
"OFF SAFE" and can be fired.
3. Installing and Removing the CO2 Cartridge
A. Installing a New CO2 Cartridge
• Put the soft air gun "ON SAFE" (see Section 2A).
• Make sure the soft air gun is UNLOADED and POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION.
• Holding the soft air gun as shown, slide the grip plate straight back to open (Fig. 3).
• Turn the piercing knob left until it is all the way down.
• Insert the new CO2 cartridge into the soft air gun with the small neck of the CO2
cartridge inserted first.
• Finger-tighten the cartridge piercing knob by turning it right.
• Slide the grip plate forward to close.
• To make sure the cartridge has been pierced, point the soft air gun in a SAFE
DIRECTION, take "OFF SAFE" (see Step 2B) and pull the trigger.
• If the soft air gun does not make a popping noise after pulling the trigger, the CO2
is not being discharged. In that event put the soft air gun "ON SAFE" (Step 2A),
open the grip plate, and tighten a 1/4 turn and repeat the steps above.
NOTE: We recommend the use of Crosman® Powerlet® CO2 cartridges. They are made to fit your
soft air gun. Other brands of CO2 cartridges may not fit properly and if you force them into place it may result
in injury to you or damage to your soft air gun. Never try to force any CO2 cartridge into or out of place. Do
not store your soft air gun with a CO2 cartridge in it. If you know you will not be using your soft air gun for an extended period of time, empty
the CO2 cartridge and remove it from the soft air gun (Step 4B). This is very important to remember, as it will prolong the longevity of your soft
air gun seals.
B. Removing CO2 Cartridge
• Put the soft air gun "ON SAFE" (section 2A).
• Make sure the soft air gun is UNLOADED (section 4B) and pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Slide the grip plate straight back to open (Fig. 3).
• Use one hand to hold the soft air gun at the top of the receiver, being sure not to cover the muzzle.
• Loosen the cartridge piercing knob by slowly turning it left (see Fig. 3) allowing any remaining gas to escape.
• Drop out the CO2 cartridge.
• Tighten the cartridge piercing knob enough so that the grip pass over it.
• Slide the grip plate forward to close.
4. Loading and Unloading Plastic BBs
A. Loading Plastic BBs
• Make sure the soft air gun is "ON SAFE" (See Step 2A) and pointed in a SAFE
DIRECTION.
• Remove the magazine by pressing on the magazine release button on the left
side of the soft air gun (Fig. 1).
• Pull and hold down the BB follower tab (Fig. 4).
• Insert up to 15 plastic BBs into the BB loading hole on the front of the magazine.
• Release the BB follower tab.
• Insert the loaded clip into the soft air gun.
• Your soft air gun is now loaded and ready to fire, after reading the entire manual,
including section 8 on reviewing safety.

B. Unloading Plastic BBs
• Put the soft air gun "ON SAFE" (See Step 2A).
• Point the soft air gun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Remove the magazine by pressing on the magazine release button.
• Pull and hold down the BB follower tab.
• Tip the magazine until all the plastic BBs fall out of the hole.
• If a BB is still visible in the top of the magazine, push the BB out of the magazine.
• Aim the soft air gun in a SAFE DIRECTION, take it "OFF SAFE" (See Step 2B) and fire.
• Repeat this procedure several times until you are sure you are no longer firing BBs.
NOTE: The soft air gun must be charged with CO2 when following these steps but remember, do not store your
soft air gun with a CO2 cartridge in it.
5. Aiming and Firing Safely
A. Aiming and Firing the Soft air gun
• Always point your soft air gun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Follow the instructions for inserting CO2 (section 3A) and loading (section 4A).
• You and others with you should always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• Do not 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.
• Always choose your target carefully. For example, you may wish to shoot at paper bulls-eye targets that
are attached to a safe backstop such as the Crosman 850 Target Trap. A heavy blanket should be hung
behind the Target Trap to prevent ricochet should you miss the backstop.
• Your soft air gun is designed for target shooting and is suited for both indoor and
outdoor use. Always remember to place your target carefully. THINK about what
you will hit if you miss the target.
• The soft air gun is correctly aimed when the front sight blade is positioned exactly
in the center of the notch of the rear sight. 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 (Fig. 5).
• When you are sure of your target and backstop, and the area around the target is
clear, take the soft air gun "OFF SAFE" (See Step 2B) and pull the trigger to fire.
6. Removing a Jammed BB
Follow the instructions under section 4B. If you are not able to unjam your soft air gun by following the
unloading procedure, take no further action. An Authorized Service Station will unjam your soft air gun at
no cost during the warranty period.
7. Maintaining Your Soft air gun
• Putting 1 drop of Crosman 0241 Pellgunoil® on the tip of every CO2 cylinder will help to maintain your
soft air gun. DO NOT use petroleum distillate based oil or solvent and DO NOT over-oil as this can
cause damage to your soft air gun.
• DO NOT MODIFY OR ALTER YOUR SOFT AIR GUN. Attempts to modify the soft air gun in any way
inconsistent with this manual may make your soft air gun unsafe to use, cause serious injury, especially
to the eye and will void the warranty.
• If you drop your soft air gun, visually check to see that it works properly before you use it again. If anything
seems changed, like a shorter or weaker trigger pull, this may mean worn out or broken parts. Call Crosman
customer service for assistance before using your soft air gun again.
8. Reviewing Safety
• Never point the soft air gun at any person or at anything you do not intend to shoot.
• Always treat the soft air gun as though it is loaded and with the same respect you would a firearm.
• Always aim in a SAFE DIRECTION. Always keep the muzzle of the soft air gun pointed in a SAFE
DIRECTION.
• Always keep the soft air gun ON SAFE until you are ready to shoot.
• Always check to see if the soft air gun is "ON SAFE" and unloaded when getting it from another person or
from storage.
• Always keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to shoot.
• You and others with you should always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• If your reading or prescription glasses are not safety glasses, make sure you wear shooting glasses over
your regular glasses.
• Use 6 mm plastic BBs only. Never reuse ammunition.
• Do not 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.
• Place the backstop in a location that will be safe should the backstop fail.
• Your backstop should be checked 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.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or tamper with your soft air gun. Use an Authorized Service Station.
Using unauthorized repair centers or modifying the function of your soft air gun in any way may be unsafe
and will void your warranty.
• Before you store your soft air gun, make sure that it is unloaded, not charged, and that the soft air gun is
"ON SAFE."
YOU AND OTHERS WITH YOU SHOULD ALWAYS WEAR SHOOTING GLASSES TO PROTECT
YOUR EYES.
