• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The plastic
BBs may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or something you had

your soft air gun.
• 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.
• Your soft air gun is correctly aimed when the front sight blade is position
exactly in 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.
• When you are sure of your target and backstop, and the area around the
target is clear, load and charge the soft air gun following sections 3 and 4.
Take the soft air gun “OFF SAFE” (section 2A) aim and pull the
trigger to fire.

the soft air gun in any way may make it unsafe to use, may cause serious injury or death 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 parts are worn out or broken.
