Owner's Manual
Stingray and Xocet rifles are supplied fully assembled, packed in
specially designed protective boxes, and are ready for immediate use once
familiarization with the rifle and an appreciation of the basic safety rules has been
completed.
THE BASIC SAFETY RULES ARE:
1. Treat every rifle as if it is loaded.
2. Never point a rifle at anyone, or allow anyone to point a rifle at you, even if
you know it is not loaded.
3. Always carry a rifle so the direction of the muzzle is under control, even if you
stumble.
4. Always be sure of your target and what lies behind it before discharging your
rifle.
5. Never leave a loaded rifle unattended.
6. Beware of targets that tend to cause ricochets.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
1. With the open hand, sharply tap the muzzle end of the barrel down to open the
spring lock. Then using the barrel as a lever, cock the rifle as far as it will go;
the trigger sear will be heard to engage with a click.
N.B. Keep the forefinger of the supporting hand clear of the trigger whilst
cocking the rifle. Also, never allow the barrel to spring back before the sear is
engaged nor pull the trigger until the barrel is returned to the closed position.
2. Insert a pellet into the breech of the barrel (fig. 1) and push the pellet with the
finger or thumb only until flush with the end. Close the barrel; the spring lock
will automatically engage.
Stingray only - If required, engage the safe by pulling it rearwards as far as it
will go. The designed travel of the safe is 3/16ยดยด (4.8 mm).
