Loading the Barrel
Make sure the bleed valve on the regulator is closed before filling the cannon cylinder.
Slowly open the cylinder valve. The preset regulator on the filling hose will automatically recharge the cannon with the proper amount of gas. The gauge on the cannon will read approximately 1,000 psi when the cannon is fully charged. Close the cylinder valve. Open the bleed valve to release the pressure from the filling hose. Remove the filling hose from the cannon. Screw the cap back on the filling outlet and tighten.
Remove the cap from the filling outlet on the cannon. The cap has a bead chain attached to insure that it doesn’t get misplaced.
Hand-tight connect the filling hose to the cannon.
Charging the Control Box

Screw the barrel on to the cannon. Remove the cap ring from the barrel and fill the barrel with confetti. If using bundled confetti, be sure to remove the rubber bands before placing them in the barrel. To avoid confetti from clumping, do not tightly pack the confetti in the barrel.
2
Use a foil balloon to seal the barrel. Cut a 6” radius circle out of a foil balloon (Use a popped
ap balloon). One circle will
or scr provide two pieces of foil material. Place one foil circle over the end of the barrel and screw the barrel into the cannon base.

Rigging the Cannon
Firing the Cannon
1
1. The rigging mount, located at the bottom of the barrel fits a 1/2” electrical conduit. Place the conduit into the mount and firmly tighten the thumb screw to secure the cannon in place.
2. The angle of the cannon barrel can be adjusted to achieve different effects. Select the proper angle for the event and tighten the wing nut to hold the barrel in place. Use a heavy weight at the base of the column. Before loading the Confetti Cannon with confetti and covering the conduit with balloons, test fire the cannon prior to the event to insure the column is properly secured. The cannon will kick when fired.
3. Plug the detonator line into the cannon. The 100-foot spool of line is designed to remain on the orange holder–unwind only the necessary length needed to connect the cannon to the detonator box.
IMPORTANT: Prior to event, always verify that the battery is fully charged. To avoid accidentally firing the cannons, do not plug the wire into the Control Box until the event is ready to start. Make sure that the lead wire is taped to the ground to prevent potential tripping danger. As a finishing touch, cover the conduit with a column of balloons.

Firmly plug the lead wire into the cannon.
On cue, push and hold down the Control Box detonator button until the cannon has completely fired. For best results, wait for approximately 2 seconds between pressing the first and second button. This will prolong the air time of the confetti.
Optional Cannon Accessories
Dual Cannon Outlet
The Dual Outlet plugs into the Control Box to fire 2 cannons per zone. Using 2 dual outlets, up to 4 cannons can be fired.
