Filling your rifle with compressed air

As with all air rifle procedures, make sure the rifle is unloaded / discharged and treat it as if it were still loaded.

Instructions for filling rifle with air

• Remove the dust cap from the front of the reservoir and connect the female snap-on connector onto the inlet valve whilst making sure that the outer sleeve is fully forward and that the connection is secure.
• Check that the bleed screw on the hose and gauge unit is closed and slowly open the feed valve. Compressed air will now fill the reservoir.
• Fill to the charging pressure engraved on the left side of the barrel. Typically 180 - 230 bar. Close the feed valve.
• Allow a few seconds for the pressure to 'settle' and then top up if required.
• Sharply open the bleed valve on the hose and gauge unit and bleed off the air from the filler hose.
• Remove the snap-on connector and replace the dust cap.
