Spring Air Rifle Instructions
Loading and Firing
Break barrel
Always apply the safety catch before loading the gun. This is done by pulling
the lever backwards to the “SAFE” position which locks the trigger to prevent
the rie ring.
On the Meteor & Comet the safety is in front of the trigger, and on the
Supersport & Lightning it is on the right side of the action; in all cases the
rear position is “SAFE” and the forward position “FIRE”. If the trigger is pulled
when the barrel is open and the gun cocked, the barrel will slam shut causing
damage to both the stock and barrel and possible serious injury to the shooter.
Resulting repairs can be expensive and are not covered by the warranty.
With your ngers clear of the trigger area, grasp the pistol grip rmly with one
hand and pull down the barrel as far as it will go with the other hand until the
trigger engages.
Continuing to hold the barrel securely, insert a pellet nose rst into the barrel
and close the gun. When you are ready to re, move the safety catch forward
towards the ‘F’ position. Return the safety catch to the ‘S’ position
after ring.
IMPORTANT: Please read these instructions and view the CD-ROM before rst using your rie.

Gun Safety
• Make sure you know the laws relating to airguns, and abide by them.
• When you pick up any gun always check that it is not loaded.
• Never point a gun at anyone or anything that is not a legitimate target.
• Never leave your rie unattended, even if it’s unloaded.
• Gun safety is a state of mind; never rely on a safety catch.
• After use, put your rie away safely; unloaded and out of reach of
children. Store your pellets separately.
• Always ensure it is safe to shoot and be certain of your target before
you squeeze the trigger.
• Make sure there is a safe backstop behind your target to catch your
pellet in case you miss.
• Beware of ricochets – do not shoot at water or other smooth surfaces
that may deect the pellet in a different direction.
• Always unload your gun when crossing obstacles, taking it indoors or
into a car.
• When carrying your rie, be sure the muzzle is always pointing in a safe
direction in case you should stumble.
• Never shoot on land without written permission from the owner.
Under-lever
The Polaris is an under-lever design. To cock the gun, release the underlever
from it’s retaining catch (g 1) and holding the gun as shown (g 2) pull
down on the underlever until the trigger sear engages and the gun cocks.
Then while still holding the underlever, push the open the rotating breech (g
3) and insert a pellet, pushing it into the barrel (g 4). Do not try to open the
rotating breech unless the gun is cocked or you may damage the breech seal.
