Owner's Manual

9
• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The bullets may bounce off or
ricochet and hit someone or something you had not intended to hit.
• Always choose your target carefully. It is best to only shoot at paper bulls eye targets that
are attached to a safe backstop made of an energy absorbing material like dirt or sand.
• Your airgun is designed for target shooting and hunting and is suited for outdoor use
only. Always remember to place your target carefully. THINK about what you will hit if
you miss the target.
12. Removing a Jammed Bullet
A jammed bullet is usually the result of trying to re the airgun when the pressure is too
low (less than 1000psi). Alternatively, the airgun may jam if the EPIC™ controls are set
too low for the grain weight of the bullet in the chamber. Before ring the airgun make
certain there is sufcient pressure for proper operation. Make sure the gauge is indicat-
ing a pressure between 1000 psi (69 Bar) and 3000 psi (207 Bar).
If the bolt can be moved from the rearward “READY TO FIRE” position, to the forward
“Not Ready to Fire” position you can remove a jammed bullet using the Electronic De-
pressurization Method for discharging the bullet with air pressure (See Section 7). To use
this method the airgun must have greater than 2000 psi in the reservoir.
How to Electronically Depressurize the Airgun
• Move the cross block safety to “ON SAFE”.
• Keep the airgun pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Remove the clip.
• Close the bolt by moving it forward and then downward into the “NOT READY TO
FIRE” position.
• Rotate the bolt activation lever so the word, “DISABLED,” is visible to prevent the
bolt from moving. (See Section 3)
• Set the mode to “Disch”. (See Section 5)
• Rotate the bolt activation lever so the word, “ACTIVE,” is visible to allow movement
of the bolt handle. (See Section 3)
• Move bolt handle rearward to the “READY TO FIRE” position.
• Move the cross block safety to “OFF SAFE”.
• Keep the airgun pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Pull the trigger.
• Check your pressure on the LCD screen.
• You can repeat ring the airgun until the pressure goes to 1000 PSI.
• If your unable to move the bolt from the rearward “READY TO FIRE” position to the
forward “NOT READY TO FIRE” position wait 1 hour, if possible, and try again.
• If you are unable to discharge the jammed bullet using this method, follow the steps
below to remove a jammed bullet using a Ramrod.
Use of a Ramrod
DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS PROCEDURE ON A PRESSUR-
IZED AIRGUN. You must depressurize your airgun rst. In this procedure, you
will put a cleaning rod down the barrel of the airgun. While you are performing this
procedure, it is extremely important to you make sure the cross block safety is
“ON SAFE”, the bolt remains in the open position and you keep your nger away
from the trigger. Failure to follow these instructions may cause the jammed bullet
and ramrod to propel out of the barrel and may result in serious injury or death.
Follow these instructions:
•Keepthesafety“ONSAFE.”
•PointandkeeptheairgunpointedinaSAFEDIRECTION.
