Section III OPERATING INSTRUCTION
1. MANUAL SAFETY

ON OFF

Fig 1 Fig 2
 Safety button can be set to “ON” and “OFF”
 To set the safety to “ON”, push in the safety, see the arrow direction in Fig 1. In this position, the gun
cannot be fired.
 To set the safety to “OFF”, push out the safety, see the arrow direction in Fig 2. In this position, the
gun is ready to shoot.
CAUTION: Until you are actually ready to fire, keep the safety in “ON” position for safety concern.

2. CHARGING THE RIFLE


Fit the filler nozzle to the air-line of the charging equipment, which must
incorporate a pressure gauge. Ensure both filler nozzle and the rifle filler
are clean from dirt, then push the nozzle into the filler hole (the basic part
No.7 in Fig 1). We recommend you fill 19MPa pressure to the air reservoir.
Do not exceed the maximum pressure 20 MPa. The rifle can be charged to
maximum 25MPa with consistent valve.

2.1 Pressuring (Filling) the Air Rifle with a Hand Pump


 Be sure to wear eye protection.
 Make sure the air rifle is unloaded and not cocked.
 Read all instructions with your hand pump so you are familiar with its operation. Step 1
 Put the air rifle ‘ON SAFE” (see Fig 2)
 Point the air rifle in a SAFE DIRECTION.
 Follow the Step 1 and Step 2, now you are ready to fill pressure.

2.2 Pressuring (Filling) the Air Rifle with a High Pressure Tank
 Follow the Step 1 to fit the filler nozzle.
 Then follow Step 2 to fill.
 Slowly open the valve on your tank and start filling the air rifle SLOWLY.
Filling too quick will cause heat buildup that can affect the accuracy of
the fill pressure.
 Watch the gauge on your air rifle and the air reservoir until the
reasonable pressure is reached.
 DO NOT fill the air rifle to more than 20MPa/25MPa with consistent valve.
 Turn the valve on your tank off when the reasonable pressure is reached.
 BLEED the fill hose COMPLETELY to avoid hose whip and possible injury. Step 2
 Disconnect the tank’s fill hose from the filler nozzle on the air rifle.

2.3 Depressurizing the Air Rifle
Your M10 air rifle, like most PCP air rifles, is best stored with some pressure in the reservoir. This keeps
the seals in the air rifle forced against the sealing surface and saves some air for next time fill or use. In
the event you want or need to depressurize the air rifle follow the following steps:
 Using the dry fire method.
 Keep the air rifle pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
 Remove all the air from the air rifle by repeatedly cocking and dry-firing with the air rifle pointed in a
SAFE DIRECTION until the pressure gauge on your air rifle shows no pressure and air cannot be
heard when the shot is fired.
 Put the air rifle “ON SAFE”.

Filling Notes:
* Before you remove the filler nozzle from the filler hole, turn on the exhaust valve on your filling
equipment and make sure the hose has already exhausted. Then turn off the exhaust valve.
** The air reservoir on your M10 air rifle is not replaceable. DO NOT INTEND TO DISMANTLE ANY
PARTS ON YOUR AIR RIFLE IN ANY SITUATION.
*** If your air rifle is being filled from completely empty(zero pressure) the tension of the hammer
pressing against the valve may keep the valve open which will cause air to leak down the barrel. In the
event this occurs try cocking the bolt and leaving it in the rear (fully open) position to eliminate the
force on the valve allowing it to close. Always make certain the air rifle is not loaded and there is not a
pellet in the chamber with the safety “ON”.

3. LOADING PELLETS
 When you are holding the air rifle, make sure it is not cocked and unloaded and check if you take
the same caliber pellet as your barrel.
 Check the air pressure in your gas cylinder is in a reasonable range.
 DO NOT POINT THE MUZZLE AT ANYONE when loading.
 Before loading, check if the safety is “ON”.
 The followings are the loading procedures for M10/M20:

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Fig 3

Step 6 Step 5 Step 4


When you are holding the air rifle, check your Fig5
air rifle is set like Step 1. Turn the bolt up then pull it to the
rear position until the air rifle is cocked. (The bolt cannot automatically return forward.) Now the loading
port can be seen like Step 3. Load the pellet from the loading port. Push the bolt forward to the end. Turn
the bolt down like Step 6.

 The followings are the loading procedures for M11/M22:

Step 1
Step 2 Step 3 Fig 4

Regulated nut
Step 6 Step 5 Step 4
Before assembling the magazine, load pellets into magazine hole and make sure it’s centered like Step
1 in Fig 4. Turn the magazine each time in the arrow direction after loading a pellet until all the holes are
loaded with pellets. When you are holding the air rifle, check your air rifle is set like Step 2. Turn the bolt
up then pull it to the rear position until the air rifle is cocked (The bolt cannot automatically return
forward). Align the magazine bugle into breech slot and assemble the magazine. Push the bolt forward
and lock it like Step 5&6. After shooting out all 11 pellets, pull the bolt to the end, dismantle the magazine
and reload.
The followings are velocity regulating procedure:
Turn in the regulated nut in Step 6 to increase velocity, while turn it out to reduce.

* Hold the air rifle stably when loading. DO NOT SHAKE OR DROP THE AIR RIFLE.
** KEEP YOU FINGER AWAY FROM TRIGGER when loading and turn “ON” safety.
*** After loading, return the bolt to its original position like Step 6.

4. FIRING
 Always point your air rifle in a SAFE DIRECTION.
 Follow the instructions for loading pellets (Fig 4)
 You and others with you should always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
 Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The pellet 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 shoot at paper bull’s-eye targets which are attached
to a safe backstop. A heavy blanket should be hung behind the backstop to prevent ricochet should
you miss the backstop.
 Your air rifle is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Please aim your target carefully. THINK
about what you will hit if you miss the target.

Section IV. MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Never shoot the air rifle when the air reservoir is empty.
Failure to obey this instruction could result in damage to your air rifle. Never
lubricate inside the barrel as this may affect the shooting accuracy and
firing intensity in negative manner.

Lubricating and Cleaning


Every 3 months or 1000 shots apply mineral based oils sparingly to the following parts:
 The surface of bolt
 The seal of loading port

It is recommended to clean the barrel with a cleaning rod every 3 months or every 1000 shots. Never
lubricate inside the barrel.
Before you begin oiling or cleaning your air rifle, always check to make sure it is unloaded.
Always be sure your air rifle barrel is clean and not blocked.
After cleaning ensure that no cleaning patch or other obstruction remains in the barrel.
Annually, take your air rifle to a gunsmith even if it seems to be working well, since some issues in your
air rifle may not be apparent from external examination.
Take your air gun to a gunsmith if water, sand, etc. enters the internal mechanism of the air gun, for
complete cleaning.
Dangerous conditions may occur if you do not keep your air gun clean and working properly.

Quick Fill Nozzle O-Ring Replacement


After a period of time, the O-ring on the fill nozzle will need to be replaced. The need for this will become
noticeable if air is heard leaking from the nozzle or the nozzle ejected from the rifle while charging the
rifle. Always ensure to replace both O-rings.

Intake Valve O-Ring Replacement


After a period of time, the O-ring on the fill nozzle will need to be replaced. Once air is heard leaking from
the intake valve, it is the sign of immediate replacement of the intake valve O-ring.

 Make sure there’s no high pressures air in the air reservoir, and wait until the gauge needle points to
zero.
 Follow the following steps to replace the O-ring:
Firstly, dismantle the intake valve.
Secondly, remove the intake valve screw and the used O-ring.
Then replace the new O-ring onto it.
At last, Re-assemble the intake valve.
 Make sure all the threads are screwed in during the assembly.
 It is recommended to seek a competent gunsmith for help to replace the O-ring. If you need to
replace it yourself, make sure there’s no high pressure in the air reservoir and the gauge needle has
pointed to zero.

SAFETY MEASURES & WARNINGS
 This air gun will shoot if cocked, loaded, safety disengaged and trigger pulled.
 Air guns are not toys. Never let young children use an air gun unsupervised. Adult supervision is
strictly required during use. Misuse or careless use may cause serious injury or death.
 Learn how your air gun operates and safe air gun handling procedures before loading and using it.
 ALWAYS USE EYE & HEARING PROTECTION AND MAKE BYSTANDERS USE THE SAME.
Failure to do so may result in eye injuries and permanent hearing loss.
 Do not point at anything you do not intend to shoot even though the air gun is unloaded. Always
keep the air gun pointed in a safe direction.
 Never pull an air gun toward you by the muzzle.
 Always aim at a safe target, taking care that it does not conceal any other object.
 Before you shoot, consider where the pellet will travel should you miss your intended target, thus
ensuring no damage or harm could result. Be sure of your target before you pull the trigger. Never
shoot at sounds.
 When shooting, always have a safe shooting range, that is; have a safe area for shooting, a safe
distance between you and the target, and a safe backstop to trap the pellets and hold the target.
 Do not shoot at a target, which allows ricochets or deflections. Do not shoot into or at water.
 Do not shoot at or near power lines or insulators. Be especially careful in wooded areas where
power lines may not be as visible.
 Do not load the air gun until you are ready to shoot.
 Always keep your fingers away from the trigger & muzzle during cocking and handling.
 Do not run or jump when carrying a loaded or cocked air gun. A loaded or a cocked air gun should
never be carried inside a vehicle, house, camp or public place. Never climb a tree or fence or jump a
ditch with a loaded air gun. In such a case, first unload it and hand the air gun to a friend or place it
on the ground on the other side of the obstacle before crossing yourself.
 When transporting the air gun, keep it unloaded and “ON SAFE”.
 Always keep the air gun “on safe” until you are ready to shoot even if the air gun is unloaded.
 Do not put the air gun away loaded and unattended.
 Always check to see if the air gun is ‘on safe’ and unloaded when getting it from another person or
from storage.
 Always keep the air gun and/or pellets out of the reach of children. Keep the air gun and pellets in
separate places, better if under lock and key.
 Do not attempt to disassemble or tamper with your air gun. Use a competent gunsmith. Many air
guns contain powerful springs or high pressure air cylinders which can cause serious injury if
released in an uncontrolled manner.
 Always handle and treat your air gun as though it were loaded.
 Improper use or handling of air guns is not the responsibility of the manufacturer or distributor,
under any circumstances. The user is responsible for any harm, which may be caused.
 Think first, shoot second. Don’t rely on any mechanical safety. Half safe is not safe.
 Be safe not sorry. Respect other’s property.
 Air guns should never be used under the influences of alcohol or drugs.
