➁
Thread the cord from the drop rod through the drop
rod clamp and clamp the end of the drop rod by tight-
ening the thumb screw.
➤
CAUTION: Do not overtighten the screw be-
cause the tube may be crushed.
➂
Plug the drop rod cord into the drop rod jack on the
side of the Ballistic Cart Accessory.
➤
NOTE: Plugging this cord in disables the
launching mechanism of the Ballistic Cart Acces-
sory so when you want to use the launcher you
must unplug the drop rod accessory.
➃
Note that the Drop Rod Accessory requires a special
ball that has an iron insert. The balls for the Drop Rod
Accessory and the Ballistic Cart Accessory are differ-
ent colors so they can be easily distinguished. To hang
the ball from the drop rod, the pin on the drop rod
must be inserted into the small hole in the ball. See
Figure 2.
