Thank you for choosing the Hatsan NOVA series PCP air rifle! Always use caution when operating this rifle.
Learn and obey the laws of your local municipality, state, and/or country. Demonstrate responsibility while
using this air rifle. Please read this manual completely before handling or shooting your air gun. It is the
sole responsibility of the user to operate this air gun properly and safely.
Warning!
1. Each Hatsan PCP air rifle contains pressurized air and should only be dismantled by a competent
gunsmith. Do not attempt to dismantle the rifle if the rifle is partially or fully charged. Otherwise serious
damage/injury/death may be caused to you or others. The air rifle may also become damaged. Never
attempt to dismantle the air cylinder parts or air gauge when the air cylinder is fully or partially charged.
Serious injury/death/damage may result if these instructions are ignored because pressurized air is in
the air cylinder.
2. Use only factory manufactured pellets that are no longer than the thickness of the rifle’s magazine. Do
not use BB ammunition with your rifle.
3. Hatsan PCP air rifles are designed specifically for use with dry compressed air. NO OTHER GAS OR GAS
COMBINATION CAN BE USED.
The rifle may be filled from a diver’s bottle or a suitable compressor,
MAXIMUM SAFE WORKING PRESSURE (SWP): 250 BAR.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The Hatsan Nova air rifle is not equipped with open sights, so a rail-mounted optic is recommended for use.
Before using your new air rifle check that it is fully charged and abide by the following basic safety rules:
Basic Safety Rules:
1. Treat every rifle as if it is loaded.
2. Never point the rifle at anyone, or allow anyone to point a rifle at you, even if you know it is not loaded.
3. Do not brandish or display this product in public – as it may confuse people and could be mistaken as a
firearm.
4. Always carry the rifle so that the direction of the muzzle is under control, even if you stumble.
5. Always be sure of your target and what lies behind it before firing your rifle – this product may be dangerous
up to 650 yards.
6. Beware of targets that tend to cause ricochets.
7. Never leave a loaded rifle unattended.
8. It is compulsory that eye & ear protection is worn when charging the cylinder and when shooting.
9. This is a high-powered airgun for use by those 16 years of age or older.
Section I. SPECIFICATIONS
The Hatsan Nova PCP rifle has a 10-shot magazine in .177 (4.5mm) & .22 (5.5mm) and a 9-shot magazine
in .25 (6.35mm) caliber. It is a pre-charged, manual-loading, pneumatic air rifle with a non-removable air
reservoirs of 500cc each.
*Above maximum muzzle velocity figures may differ depending on the pellet weight & shape.
** The energy restriction of a particular country can be achieved by the reduction in the muzzle velocity. The above maximum velocity figures are obtained when there is no energy
restriction on the air rifle and when measured at optimum pressure value in the air tube. As a nature of unregulated PCP air rifles the velocity starts lower at maximum pressure
level in the air tube, then starts to increase and gets to the maximum at optimum pressure value in the air tube; and then it starts to decrease again as the pressure in the air cylinder
gets low.
