The Beeman
®
Lifetime Repair Policy
Beeman
®
is proud to offer a FREE lifetime repair policy on many of our airguns. This policy assures
that during the lifetime of the original retail purchaser, Beeman
®
will provide without cost all
genuine factory parts and factory-authorized labor necessary to repair any factory defect of material
or workmanship of the covered airgun. Parts and labor necessary to repair any defect of material or
workmanship of the seals and mainspring(s) will similarly be provided for one year from the verified date
of purchase.
Of course, some items are not covered by this free lifetime repair policy, including: normal wear
and tear; customer abuse; unauthorized repairs, parts, or modifications; stocks/wood (including the
finish); damage as a result of over-pressurization of CO2 airguns, pneumatic airguns, or gas springs;
damage as a result of incorrect lubrication or over-lubrication, or as a result of using improper
lubricants; breech, piston, and other seals; mainsprings; and loss or theft. This lifetime repair policy
is valid only as long as parts are readily available for the airguns.
Special Notice! Snapping a barrel-cocking airgun’s barrel shut excessively hard, or allowing
it to fly up from an open position can cause an upward bent barrel, a cracked stock, and/or a
bent cocking lever. This combination of damage always represents customer abuse and is not
covered by any warranty, repair policy, or service contract.
This change in policy supersedes all other repair policies. For repairs on any airgun, send the airgun
prepaid and insured to: BPA Repair Department, 5454 Argosy Drive, Huntington Beach, CA 92649.
Be sure to include a note describing the problem, your name, address, and telephone number, and
a copy of your dated sales receipt.This unique lifetime repair policy is one more reason why
experienced shooters and collectors look to Beeman
®
for the world’s finest adult airguns and
equipment.
Disassembly Of Your Air Rifle Will Void Your Warranty!
We strongly advise against disassembly or modifying you air rifle. Doing so could be dangerous to
the person attempting it. The powerful mainsprings used in the air rifle are kept under considerable
tension even when the air rifle is not cocked. Improper disassembly may lead to serious injuries, or
even death if the mainspring is ejected from the compression tube suddenly. Specialized training, as
well as proper tools, are required to safely disassemble and reassemble the air rifle.
Air Rifle Maintenance
1. Air Compression Chamber. The air compression chamber and piston seal requires virtually no
lubrication. It should be lubricated during a factory service only.
2. The Mainspring. The mainspring is the power source for the air rifle. A break in period of 1000
rounds is usually necessary before maximum velocities are reached. Once the airgun is properly
broken in, periodic lubrication is necessary for smooth operation. A light application of the lube
applied directly to the mainspring through the slot on the underside of the cylinder will accomplish
this. Use only a small amount as excess will damage the air rifle.
3. Barrel Hinge and Other Bearing Surfaces. The main bearing surfaces, such as the barrel pivot
lever and cocking arm, should be lubricated with Metal to Metal. Use only one drop per side as
excess may cause galling.
4. Barrel. The barrel normally requires a minimum of care. For best accuracy the bore should be
cleaned with a lightly oiled patch or felt cleaning pellets. Do not use regular firearm bore cleaners as
they may injure the seals and cause dieseling! Be sure to always clean from the breech end, and use
a cleaning rod designed for airguns so that the fragile rifling and crown does not get damaged.
5. Exterior Surfaces. To prevent rust from forming off the oils from your hands, the exterior
surfaces should be wiped down thoroughly with a Beeman
®
Silicone Cloth to maintain the quality
of the finish. Before airguns are stored they should be given a good wiping with a very high grade
polarizing oil such as Beeman
®
MP-5.
