lifetime repair policy
Air Venturi offers a FREE lifetime repair policy on many Beeman
®
airguns. Dur-
ing the lifetime of the original retail purchaser, Air Venturi will provide without cost
all genuine factory parts and factory-authorized labor necessary to repair any facto-
ry defect of material or workmanship of the covered airgun. Parts and labor neces-
sary to repair any defect of material or workmanship of the seals and mainspring(s)
will similarly be provided for one year from the veried date of purchase.
Some items are not covered by this free lifetime repair policy, including: nor-
mal wear and tear; customer abuse; unauthorized repairs, parts or modications;
stocks/wood (including the nish); damage as a result of incorrect lubrication, over-
lubrication or improper lubricants; breech, piston and other seals; mainsprings;
and loss or theft. This lifetime repair policy is valid only as long as parts are readily
available for the airguns.
This policy supersedes all other repair policies. For repairs on any airgun, send
the airgun prepaid and insured to: Air Venturi, 5135 Naiman Parkway, Solon, OH
44139. Include a note describing the problem, your name, address, telephone
number and a copy of your dated sales receipt.
We strongly advise against disassembly or modifying your air rie. Doing so
could be dangerous. The powerful mainsprings are kept under considerable tension
even when the air rie is not cocked. Improper disassembly may lead to serious
injuries or even death if the mainspring is suddenly ejected from the compression
tube. Specialized training, as well as proper tools, are required to safely disassem-
ble and reassemble the air rie.
Air rie maintenance
1. Air compression chamber: The air compression chamber and piston seal require
no lubrication. They should be lubricated during factory service only.
2. Mainspring: The mainspring is the power source for the air rie. A break-in
period of 500-1,000 rounds is usually necessary before maximum velocities are
reached and repeatable accuracy attained. Once the airgun is properly broken in,
periodic lubrication is necessary for smooth operation. A light application of the
lube applied directly to the mainspring through the slot on the underside of the
cylinder will accomplish this. Use only a small amount, as excess will damage
the air rie.
3. Cocking arm hinge & other bearing surfaces: The main bearing surfaces, such as
the cocking arm, should be lubricated with a good lubricating oil. Use only one
drop per side as excess may cause galling.
4. Barrel: The barrel normally requires minimal care. For best accuracy, the bore
should be cleaned with a lightly oiled patch or felt cleaning pellets. Do not use
regular rearm bore cleaners, lubes or tools as they may injure the seals and
cause dieseling! Always clean from the breech end and use a cleaning rod de-
signed for airguns so to protect the riing and crown.
5. Exterior: To prevent rust from forming from the oils on your hands, exterior sur-
faces should be wiped down thoroughly with a silicone cloth. Before airguns are
stored, they should be given a good wiping with a very high grade polarizing oil.
