AIRGUN SAFETY RULES - SAFETY 1ST!
ALWAYS ENGAGE YOUR BRAIN BEFORE TOUCHING ANY GUN.

AIRGUNS ARE RECOMMENDED FOR ADULT USE ONLY. MISUSE OR CARELESS USE MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

READ YOUR OWNER'S OPERATION MANUAL PRIOR TO HANDLING ANY AIRGUN. PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO ALL WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS. It is your duty to know and obey all laws governing the use and ownership of air guns in your city, town, province, state, and/or country.


GUN SAFETY RULES
ALWAYS ENGAGE YOUR BRAIN BEFORE TOUCHING ANY GUN.

• Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
• Always treat every gun as if it were loaded.
• Always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• Always keep guns unloaded until ready to shoot.
• Always keep a gun "on safe" until ready to shoot.
• Always keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to shoot.
• Always be sure of your target and be sure your target has a safe backstop. Think of what you might hit if the ammunition misses or goes through your intended target. Know the danger distance of your gun (how far the ammunition may travel).
• Always check to see if the gun is "on safe" and unloaded when getting it from another person or from storage.
• Always read and follow all instructions, warnings, and cautions in the owner's manual and know how your gun works before using it.
• Always store a gun in a safe place and separate from ammunition and power source so that it cannot be used by anyone unauthorized to use it.


THINK SAFETY FIRST:

• Adult supervision is required when any type of airgun is in use.
• Never rely on an airgun's "Safety" to protect you from unsafe handling. A safety is a mechanical device, not a substitute for common sense and good safety procedures.
• Always place the backstop in a location that will be safe should the backstop fail. Think about what may be hit if the pellet or BB misses the backstop.
• Discontinue the use of a backstop if the projectile rebounds or ricochets.
• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or the surface of water, a ricochet may occur.
• Shoot only the correct caliber and type of ammunition as marked on your airgun.
• Do not attempt to reuse fired, damaged, or deformed pellets or BBs as they may lodge in the barrel.
• If an airgun is dropped, check to see that it works properly before using it again. If anything seems changed, like a shorter or weaker trigger pull, this may mean worn out or broken parts. Call Umarex USA for assistance.
• Do not consume alcohol prior to, or during a shooting session.
• On air rifles, scopes are to be mounted with 2 ¾" to 3" of eye relief to prevent bodily injury.
• On break-barrel air rifles, DO NOT PULL THE TRIGGER WITH THE BARREL BROKEN OVER. The barrel will fly up causing a bent barrel and could result in serious injury to a person.
• Perform regular maintenance on your airgun to make sure that it remains safe for use.
