Preface

Safety instructions

Dear Friends of ANSCHÜTZ,

You have made a good choice, now that you have decided to buy an ANSCHÜTZ product. The many great results obtained with AN-

SCHÜTZ rifles by shooters, participants in the Olympic Games as well as in World and

European championships throughout the world made your choice easy, as your rifle has benefited from our great experience of making fine sporting and target rifles since 1856.

World-wide, ANSCHÜTZ rifles are respected because of their fine accuracy, impeccable design and immaculate workmanship. Should you still be unaware, they include:

The famous ANSCHÜTZ small bore target rifles, target air rifles and target air pistols, small bore biathlon rifles, hunting rifles and shotguns in diverse calibers, small bore single loaders and repeaters, Flobert rifles, silhouette pistols, silhouette rifles and Varmint rifles.

We wish you a lot of fun and success with your new ANSCHÜTZ product.

Yours ANSCHÜTZ Team

Attention

Please read carefully the following articles before using this rifle. It is extremely important that you become thoroughly familiar with this rifle and its operating characteristics by carefully reading and understanding the instructions in this booklet before you attempt any use of it with ammunition. Always remember the sequence of disassembly. Should you still have problems with the safe usage and correct handling of your rifle or should you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact a competent gunsmith or dealer or our factory directly. This instruction leaflet is extraordinarily important.

Make sure that it is always with the rifle especially when it is sold, lent or otherwise given to a third person.

Only use as follows

ANSCHÜTZ manufactures precision products which, depending on the model type, are exclusively meant for civilian target shooting and hunting.

Combat and defense shooting and competitions in which the shooter moves while

18

shooting, must not be shot with ANSCHÜTZ rifles and pistols. It is especially not allowed to aim and shoot at people. The rifle, pistol or the stock must not be used to beat somebody. Please also see the chapter „The

Ten Commandments of Firearms Safety“ as well as the chapter „General Handling of Rifles and Firearms“.

Additional copies of this booklet can be ordered.

This ANSCHÜTZ firearm has been carefully test fired and inspected before shipment from the factory. The mechanism of this firearm has been properly designed, tested and fitted with the utmost attention to safety. However, any mechanical device can fail and no such device can prevent accidents caused by carelessness or thoughtless handling. AN-

SCHÜTZ cannot control the handling of each firearm once they have left the factory. Please take the time to inspect the firearm carefully before use.

DO NOT USE ANY FIREARM WITHOUT

A COMPLETE KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF IT’S SAFE USE AND

PROPER HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS.

Warning:

This rifle can be dangerous if it is not used correctly or if this instruction leaflet is not observed. The privilege of ownership and safe use of your rifle carries a personal responsibility that no one should take lightly.

Rifle accidents would not occur if the following rules of shooting safety were observed.

The Ten Commandments of Firearms

Safety

Learn the mechanical and handling characteristics of the firearm you are using.

Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.

Firearms should be unloaded when not in use.

Be sure the barrel is clear of obstructions before using.

Be sure of your target before you shoot.

Wear shooting glasses and ear protection when you shoot.

Never climb a tree or fence with a loaded firearm.

Don’t shoot at a hard surface or at water.

Never transport a loaded firearm.

Avoid alcoholic beverages or drugs and don’t smoke when shooting or handling a gun or a pistol.

Please note

There is no substitute for personal responsibility and common sense in the handling, use and storage of firearms. Securely store your unloaded guns away from access by children or unauthorized adults.

General handling of rifles and firearms

Although it can be assumed that shooters are familiar with the following rules we would like to emphasize them once again for reasons of safety. All firearms are hazardous objects.

Extraordinary care has to be dedicated to their use and storage.

1. Treat every rifle as though it was loaded. Do not take anyone’s word or automatically assume it is not loaded. Check your rifle personally each time you handle it. The safe and courteous way to carry a rifle when you are with others is to leave the bolt open so that they can easily see that the rifle cannot be fired. Make sure that the rifle is not loaded when you stop shooting. Make sure your rifle is unloaded before every transport.

Never pick up your rifle with your finger on the trigger or the trigger guard.

2.Whenever you pick up your rifle, point the muzzle at the ground. Always point the muzzle of the barrel in a safe direction. Never pull a rifle towards you by the muzzle.

3.Only use your rifle in approved shooting ranges. Shoot your rifle only under good visibility and daylight conditions. If you use your rifle in an indoors range, make sure it is adequately ventilated. Make sure that there is a safe bullet trap which can be seen from all sides and that there is no one in the vicinity of your target. Be absolutely sure of a safe backstop and target. Never fire at a hard, smooth surface or water. Never shoot at a skyline target or into the air. Do not shoot at anything from which a bullet might ricochet. Never fire your rifle with the muzzle in the water or against any other material to avoid an accident or damage of your rifle.

4.Be sure that you use the correct ammunition. The correct caliber can be seen on your rifle. Load your rifle only when you are at the range and ready to shoot. Use only genuine ANSCHÜTZ magazines. Do not exceed the stated magazine capacity. Alterations to the rifle or the use of non-AN-

SCHÜTZ magazines and accessories may cause malfunctions.

19

5.Always keep your rifle clean. Be sure the bore is not obstructed by dirt, water, grease or any other foreign materials. Never try to shoot out any obstruction. If a shot has not been released when the trigger has been pulled, direct the barrel in a safe direction, activate the safety, open the action and carefully remove the bullet.

6.Serious injury and damage can result from the use of the wrong ammunition,

bore obstructions, or incorrect cartridge components.

7.Place the safety fully into „S“ or „F“ position

- never inbetween. Always keep safety in full „safe“ position until ready to fire. Do not put your finger on the trigger when operating the safety or whenever you are not ready to shoot.

8.When not in use your rifle should be stored in a locked and secure place accessible only to you. Check first to make sure it is unloaded. Store the rifle with uncocked trigger. Store ammunition in a separate and secure place. It is your special responsibility to make sure that at all times and especially when you are not present your rifle is well secured, out of any reach of children and other unauthorized

persons and in no way accessible to them. For the safe storage of your rifle even in a locked cabinet or safe the use of an additional trigger lock is recommended. Even if you use such a device, your rifle always must be unloaded when not being used.

Only give your rifle to authorized persons. Never let your rifle be used by anyone who is not familiar with the safe handling of a rifle and these instructions. This rifle must only be used by a responsible adult or under his or her supervision.

9. Watch for any change in the operation of your rifle which might impair its safety.The safety is only guaranteed as long as the firearm is in faultless condition. If you suspect or note a defect or malfunction, stop using it immediately, unload the rifle, make sure that it is not under pressure and send it to a competent gunsmith, the factory or its recommended repair station for inspection. Note: Apart from normal cleaning the rifle must only be disassembled by an authorized gunsmith.Please note that your firearm must also be checked by an authorized gunsmith when it has been impaired by external conditions such as corrosion etc. or when it dropped. When you assemble or disassemble your firearm, never try to do it by

force. Unqualified handling, modifications of the mechanism or disassembly can cause injuries or irreparable damage of the rifle.

10.Your rifle should always be handled with extreme care. Make sure that it is never dropped or placed in such a way that it can fall. For transport purposes your rifle should be dry and clean. We recommend an approved protective gun case.

11.You must be in good physical condition and mental health and not under the influence of any substance (drugs, alcohol) which might impair vision, dexterity or judgement. Do not use your rifle when you are tired. Tiredness may result in a loss of control.

12.Clean your hands carefully after shooting and cleaning your ANSCHÜTZ product.

Residues of bullets, powder or oil might impair the health of your skin.

13.Your ANSCHÜTZ rifle has been carefully built and inspected by skilled technicians to provide maximum efficiency. The service life depends on the owner’s care and on cleaning following this instruction leaflet.

Ear and eye protection

You should always use approved hearing protection and approved shatterproof eye protection while shooting. Please remember persons near you to also wear hearing protection and approved shatterproof eye protection.

Laws

Please observe the corresponding regulations and laws for the use of firearms in your country. Please also observe the corresponding safety rules of sports shooting.

Product related safety instructions

Important note for the handling of compressed air cylinders

1. Only check the manometer level of the compressed air cylinder when the rifle is unloaded and uncocked. Never check it while filling the compressed air cylinder. Due to its design the manometer works with an accuracy of +/- 10 %. Temperature variations

20

can also impair the accuracy of the manometer.

2.Filled compressed air cylinders must not be exposed to temperatures of more than 50° Celsius/120° Fahrenheit. Therefore make sure during transport or storage that the rifle is protected against heat, for example by storing it in the Styrofoam packing or by using a gun case. In planes, for mail despatch, etc. compressed air cylinders are only transported when they are not filled.

3.To empty the compressed air cylinder we recommend to use our air release screw (Order-No. 711.3408). After approximately

20refills of the compressed air cylinder it should be emptied completely to get rid off possible condensed water.

4.Compressed air cylinders which are leaky, defective or older than 10 years must be emptied and must not be used and filled anymore. After 10 years from the date of manufacture the compressed air cylinder must be checked by the manufacturer for a fee. The date of manufacture can be seen from the compressed air cylinder.

5.Compressed air cylinders and refill bottles must be stored in a dry, dust and grease/oil

free place. The refill adapter is additionally equipped with an air filter against pollution and dust particles.

6.Protect valves and threads with the corresponding caps when you have removed the compressed air cylinder. Never grease or oil the valves or threads of the compressed air cylinder. Danger of explosion!

7.Compressed air cylinders must not be filled with more than 200 bar (2,790 psi) at room temperature. This maximum filling quantity must not be exceeded at no circumstances. Only use compressed air free of oil or water

(DIN EN 12021 - inhaled air). According to legal regulations we only deliver unfilled compressed air cylinders.

8.Never try to open a compressed air cylinder yourself or to carry out mechanic modifications. Protect your compressed air cylinder against external force.

9.Apart from the notes above the technical rules of your country with regard to the filling of compressed air cylinders must be observed. The compressed air cylinders are not suitable for the transport of gases of any kind.

Liability

1.ANSCHÜTZ does not assume any responsibility, guarantee or payment of damage claims for damages of any kind resulting from the disregard of these instructions, non-qualified treatment or repair, modification of parts, the use of non-original ANSCHÜTZ spare parts, incorrect handling or care, negligence, removal of the knot varnish or unauthorized modifications.

2.The wood of the stock or grip as well as the PRO grip equipment have been very carefully checked by factory inspectors prior to shipment and has been determined to be free of defects. Certain kinds of abuse, such as a dropping or falling down can cause damage to the wood or the PRO grip equipment, for which the owner is solely responsible. We also assume no responsibility for defects resulting from inappropriate transportation (mail, plane, etc.). Please immediately contact your forwarder without delay in such a case and make your claims in written form.

3.Changes, alterations or manipulations to this product or any of its parts are prohibited and might infringe firearms regulations. Such

changes or alterations can significantly impair the safe use of our product and can lead to accidents involving severe or even fatal bodily injuries. Any product warranty will automatically lapse in case changes or alterations are implemented. Users are requested to carefully inspect the product with regard to possible changes and alterations before use. In case of doubt you should contact us for further information.
