LP400 – Operating Instructions
-33-
Firing capacity:
The pressure in the cylinder can be read on the built-in pressure gauge. When
the pressure falls to 70 bar, refill the cylinder. The maximum number of rounds
varies depending on the type of pellet and the system setting. The following
values can be achieved with the different models:
LP400 Carbon / Aluminum: approx. 180 rounds at 200 bar starting pressure
LP400 Compact: approx. 140 rounds at 200 bar starting pressure
Emptying the compressed air cylinder
The compressed air cylinder can be emptied with the supplied adapter. Screw
the adapter onto the compressed air cylinder until air can be heard flowing out.
Caution: The sound of the escaping air can be very loud. You should therefore
wear ear protectors. Also make sure that bystanders are not endangered.
Compressed air cylinders which are leaky, damaged or more than 10 years old
should be emptied in a safe manner and not used or filled again. Ten years after
the manufacturing date, the compressed air cylinder must be tested at the own-
er’s expense (steel) or replaced (aluminum). The manufacturing date is recorded
on the cylinder. See also section on service life.
Removing the compressed air cylinder
Owing to improvement of the air supply system, air can remain in the pressure
reducer after the compressed air cylinder has been removed. It may take some
time (five to ten seconds) for this residual air to escape.
After you have removed the compressed air cylinder, we recommend for reasons
of safety that you cock the weapon and pull the trigger to allow the residual air
to escape. Repeat this process once or twice if necessary. When doing so, always
point the weapon away from other people and make sure that there is no pellet
in the barrel. If you use your weapon at regular weekly intervals, you do not
