Step 5. CLOSE BOLT
Push the bolt handle fully forward. This will chamber a pellet.
(See Drawing No. 8) The gun will not fire if the bolt is open.
CAUTION:
The gun is now loaded and ready to fire.
Step 6. AIM AT SAFE TARGET
Aim the gun at a safe target. To be a consistent marksman, use
the correct sight picture each time you fire your gun (See Drawing
No. 9). Never point a gun, loaded or unloaded, at anyone.
CAUTION:
Use extra caution in selecting a safe target
and backstop. This gun should not be used with BB gun targets
or backstops. Whether you use a commercial target and
backstop or make your own, it is important to remember that
they will wear out with continued use. Because of this you
should always place your target and backstop where it will be
safe should it fail, and check it carefully before and after each
use. Do not shoot at the surface of wate
r.
Step 7. TAKE “OFF” TRIGGER SAFETY
When you are certain the target, backstop and surrounding area is safe, push the trigger safety
from the right, fully to the left (RED SHOWING ON LEFT). Your gun is now cocked and ready to
shoot. In this condition, it should be handled with extreme care.
Step 8. FIRE
After making sure the gun is pointed in a safe direction, gently (but firmly) squeeze the trigger.
Repeat Steps 1 through 8 to continue shooting, using the appropriate loading procedure. NOTE:
To fire, bolt must be completely closed as indicated in Step 5.
WARNING:
If a pellet does not fire after completing the operation steps, the
gun is jammed. This can be a dangerous condition until corrected.
Open the bolt and put “ON” trigger safety immediately. If the bolt is not completely closed, do
not try to close it until after opening it by pulling the bolt handle all the way back. The gun will not
fire a projectile when the bolt is completely open.
Keep the gun pointed in a safe direction and perform the following steps.
1. Open bolt.
2. Put trigger safety “ON”.
3. Pump the gun, close bolt and with gun pointed in a safe direction, take the trigger safety
“OFF” and fire the gun.
If the pellet still does not fire, follow these steps carefully:
1. Open bolt
2. Put the trigger safety “ON” (no red showing)
3. Clear barrel by running a cleaning rod through from the muzzle end. Be careful not to
damage the bolt tip by pushing the rod through too hard. Do not re-use the pellet.
4. Repeat operation steps 1 through 8. If after following the firing procedure the projectile is
not fired, return your gun to Daisy (See “REPAIR OF DAISY GUNS” section).
