For the safe storage of your rifle even in a
locked cabinet or safe the use of an additio-
nal trigger lock is recommended. Even if you
use such a device, your rifle always must be
unloaded when not being used.
Only give your rifle to authorized persons.
Never let your rifle be used by anyone who
is not familiar with the safe handling of a rifle
and these instructions. This rifle must only be
used by a responsible adult or under his or
her supervision.
9. Watch for any change in the operation of
your rifle which might impair its safety.The
safety is only guaranteed as long as the
firearm is in faultless condition. If you suspect
or note a defect or malfunction, stop using it
immediately, unload the rifle, make sure that
it is not under pressure and send it to a
competent gunsmith, the factory or its
recommended repair station for inspection.
Note: Apart from normal cleaning the rifle
must only be disassembled by an authorized
gunsmith.Please note that your firearm must
also be checked by an authorized gunsmith
when it has been impaired by external
conditions such as corrosion etc. or when it
dropped. When you assemble or dis-
assemble your firearm, never try to do it by
force. Unqualified handling, modifications of
the mechanism or disassembly can cause
injuries or irreparable damage of the rifle.

extreme care. Make sure that it is never
dropped or placed in such a way that it can

Important note for the handling of
compressed air cylinders
1. Only check the manometer level of the
compressed air cylinder when the rifle is
unloaded and uncocked. Never check it
while filling the compressed air cylinder. Due
to its design the manometer works with an
accuracy of +/- 10 %. Temperature variations
5. Always keep your rifle clean. Be sure the
bore is not obstructed by dirt, water, grease
or any other foreign materials. Never try to
shoot out any obstruction. If a shot has not
been released when the trigger has been
pulled, direct the barrel in a safe direction,
activate the safety, open the action and
carefully remove the bullet.
6. Serious injury and damage can result from
the use of the wrong ammunition,
bore obstructions, or incorrect cartridge
components.
7. Place the safety fully into „S“ or „F“ position
- never inbetween. Always keep safety in full
„safe“ position until ready to fire. Do not put
your finger on the trigger when operating the
safety or whenever you are not ready to
shoot.
8. When not in use your rifle should be stored
in a locked and secure place accessible only
to you. Check first to make sure it is unloaded.
Store the rifle with uncocked trigger. Store
ammunition in a separate and secure place.
It is your special responsibility to make sure
that at all times and especially when you are
not present your rifle is well secured, out of
any reach of children and other unauthorized
