1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
• ALWAYS treat the air rifle as though it is loaded and ready to fire.
• ALWAYS treat air rifles with the same respect you would a firearm.
• ALWAYS store the air rifle unloaded and away from children.
• ALWAYS aim in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• ALWAYS keep the muzzle of the air rifle 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 air rifle “ON SAFE” until you are ready to shoot (Figure 2).
• ALWAYS check to see if the air rifle is “ON SAFE” (Figure 2) and unloaded when removing it from storage.
• ALWAYS check to see if the air rifle is “ON SAFE” (Figure 2) and unloaded when handing it to, or receiving it from another person.
• ALWAYS have you and others wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes. Wear shooting glasses over reading or prescription glasses.
• ALWAYS place a shooting 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 ammunition in your air rifle. Check the markings on your air rifle to verify the BBs size.
• NEVER point the air rifle at any person or at anything you do not intend to shoot.
• NEVER reuse ammunition.
• NEVER shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The pellet may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or something you had not intended to hit.
• NEVER attempt to disassemble or tamper with your air rifle. Use an Authorized Service Station. Using an unauthorized service or repair center, or modifying
the function of your air rifle in any way, may be unsafe and will void your warranty.

A. To put the air rifle “ON SAFE”
1. Locate the safety directly above of the trigger on the right side of the air rifle (Fig. 2).
2. Slide the safety toward the rear of the rifle.
3. The safety is ON and the air rifle is “ON SAFE” when the safety is pushed firmly toward “SAFE”.
4. The safety is not “ON SAFE” unless it is pushed completely to the rear.
B. To take the air rifle “OFF SAFE” and put it in the “FIRE” position
1. Slide the safety forward toward the “FIRE” for FIRE or “OFF SAFE.”
2. When the safety button on the right side of the air rifle is all the way forward, it is “OFF SAFE” and can be fired
(Fig. 2).
C. You should not take the air rifle “OFF SAFE” until after you have read and followed the instructions
in this manual on how to load.
KEEP THE AIR RIFLE IN THE “ON SAFE” POSITION UNTIL YOU ARE ACTUALLY READY TO SHOOT. THEN PUSH THE SAFETY TO THE “OFF
SAFE” POSITION.
4. INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE CO
2
CARTRIDGE
• CO
2
CYLINDERS MAY EXPLODE AT TEMPERATURES ABOVE 120°F (48.9°C). DO NOT MUTILATE OR INCINERATE THEM. DO NOT EXPOSE THEM TO HEAT OR
STORE CO
2
CYLINDERS AT TEMPERATURES ABOVE 120°F (48.9°C).
• ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE CO
2
CARTRIDGE IS EMPTY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE IT FROM THE AIR RIFLE BY SLOWLY TURNING THE WING COUNTER-
CLOCKWISE ALL THE WAY UNTIL YOU NO LONGER HEAR THE ESCAPE OF CO
2
GAS.
• KEEP HANDS AND FACE AWAY FROM ESCAPING CO
2
GAS. IT CAN CAUSE FROSTBITE IF ALLOWED TO COME IN CONTACT WITH SKIN.
CAUTION:
• We recommend the use of Crosman Powerlet CO
2
cartridges. They are made to fit your air rifle. Other brands of CO
2
cartridges may not fit
properly and may result in injury to you or damage to your air rifle.
• Do not store your air rifle with a CO
2
cartridge in it. Doing so can cause damage to the seals.
A. Installing a New CO
2
Cartridge
1. Put the air rifle “ON SAFE” (Fig. 2).
2. Make sure the air rifle is UNLOADED and POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION.
3. Remove the grip cover(s) from the left side of the air rifle by lifting it at the Finger Notch indentation on the bottom of the grip
(Fig. 3A).
4. Turn the piercing wing (Fig. 3B) counter-clockwise to allow for clearance of the CO
2
cartridge. The right hand grip cover can also be
removed if more room is needed to turn the piercing wing.
5. Put 1 drop of Crosman 0241 Pellgunoil® on the tip of every CO
2
cylinder in order to properly maintain your air rifle (See Section
7 –Maintenance).
6. Insert a new CO
2
cartridge into the air rifle, small neck first, pointing toward the piercing assembly (Fig. 4).
7. With your thumb and forefinger, turn the piercing wing clockwise until it pierces the CO
2
cartridge. If you hear a hissing sound when
piercing the cartridge, try tightening the screw slightly more. Be careful not to over-tighten when piercing.
CAUTION: Over-tightening the CO
2
cartridge can damage the cartridge housing and cause injury to you or damage to your air rifle.
8. To make sure the cartridge has been pierced, point the gun in a SAFE DIRECTION, take “OFF SAFE” and pull the trigger. If the air rifle
does not make a popping noise after pulling the trigger, the CO
2
is not being discharged. In that event, tighten the piercing wing or
lever a little more, point the air rifle in a SAFE DIRECTION, and pull the trigger until there is a popping noise, which means the air
rifle is releasing CO
2
with each pull of the trigger.
9. Reinstall grip cover(s).
B. Removing the CO
2
Cartridge
1. Put the air rifle “ON SAFE” (Fig. 2).
2. Make sure the air rifle is UNLOADED and POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION.
3. Remove the grip cover(s) from the left side of the air rifle by lifting it at the Finger Notch on the bottom of the grip. The right hand
grip cover can also be removed if more room is needed to turn the piercing wing
4. Slowly turn the piercing wing counter-clockwise, to release any remaining CO
2
, being careful not to come in contact with the
escaping gas
5. Tip out the empty cartridge. It may be cold to the touch
6. Snap the grip cover(s) back into the closed position
REMEMBER: Keep hands and face away from escaping CO
2
gas. It can cause frostbite if allowed to come in contact with skin
5. LOADING AND UNLOADING YOUR AIR RIFLE
CAUTION:
• Your air rifle was designed to function best with Crosman® or Copperhead® branded 4.5 mm BBs.
• Use of any other ammunition may cause injury to you or damage to the air rifle.
• Never reuse ammunition.
• Read this entire manual, including the section on reviewing safety, before firing your air rifle.
A. Loading BBs:
CAUTION: Fill the BB reservoir with BBs only. Use of pellets will jam the BB reservoir.
1. Load BBs into the reservoir
a. Put the air rifle “ON SAFE” (Fig. 3.1).
b. Point the air rifle in a SAFE DIRECTION.
c. Locate the BB Fill Port on the top of the receiver in front of the rear sight (Fig. 5A).
d. Slide the BB Fill Port button open (Fig. 5A).
e. Pour no more than 150 BBs into the BB reservoir through the BB Fill Port. Close the BB Fill Port.
2. Load BBs into the internal BB magazine from the reservoir
IMPORTANT: In order for BBs to fire, they may transfer from the reservoir to the internal BB magazine.
a. Ensure the BB Fill Port is closed(Fig. 5B).
b. Slide the Feed Bar forward and down into the locked position (Fig. 5C).
c. Point the air rifle in a SAFE DIRECTION
d. Using a back and forth motion, rock the air rifle to fill the internal BB
magazine (Fig. 5D).
IMPORTANT: BBs will only transfer from the reservoir to the internal magazine if the Feed Bar is
locked forward and the air rifle is gently rocked back and forth
e. To keep BBs from transferring back into the BB reservoir after loading them
into the internal BB magazine, release the Feed Bar into the Closed position (Fig. 5E). In
the Closed position, BBs remain in the internal BB magazine and will not roll back into the
BB reservoir.
3. Read Section 6 on aiming and firing safely.
B. Unloading BBs:
EVEN THOUGH YOU GO THROUGH THE UNLOADING PROCEDURE, CONTINUE TO TREAT THE AIR RIFLE AS THOUGH IT WERE LOADED.
DO NOT POINT AT ANYTHING YOU DO NOT INTEND TO SHOOT.
IMPORTANT: To completely unload BBs, they must be removed from two areas of the air rifle, the internal magazine and the reservoir.

(Fig. 5D).
IMPORTANT: If you still see BBs in the internal BB magazine, continue gently rocking the air rifle until they transfer into the BB reservoir.
DO NOT ASSUME ALL BBs ARE REMOVED FROM THE MAGAZINE WHEN THEY ARE NO LONGER VISIBLE. ALWAYS TREAT YOUR AIR RIFLE AS IF
IT IS LOADED.
2. Reservoir
a. Ensure the Feed Bar is in the CLOSED position (Fig. 5C) to block the BBs from re-entering the internal magazine.
b. Turn the gun so the BB Fill Port is facing down.
c. Gently rock the gun until all the BBs fall out of the BB Fill Port and you no longer hear them in the air rifle.

A. General Maintenance
1. Before you attempt to oil your air rifle, make sure the gun is unloaded and the CO
2
cylinder has been removed.
2. Putting a drop of Pellgunoil® on the tip of every CO

petroleum distillate based oil or solvent and DO NOT over-oil as this can cause damage to your air rifle and
possible injury to the shooter and bystanders.
3. If you drop the air rifle, visually inspect for damage before using again.
4. Periodically check your air rifle. If anything seems changed, like a shorter or weaker trigger pull, this
may mean worn out or broken parts. Call customer service for assistance before using your air rifle again
