This safety alert symbol indicates important safety messages in this manual. When you see this symbol, be alert to the possibility of personal injury and carefully read the message that follows. The Model 15XT CO2 PowerLine pistol shoots with much more muzzle energy than most BB and pellet guns. Although your new PowerLine pistol is not a firearm, it has lethal potential and should be treated with the caution and respect due any conventional firearm. Like a firearm, your PowerLine pistol, when misused or carelessly used, can kill or seriously injure the shooter or other persons. Always remember, the first and most important safety feature of any gun is the shooter. All safeties are mechanical devices and the shooter is the only part of the system that can make a gun safe­or unsafe. DON'T DEPEND ON MECHANICAL SAFETIES­think ahead and avoid situations that might lead to accidents. Guns differ in their operation, and you are never ready to fire any gun until you are thoroughly familiar with it. Read the following operating instructions and WITHOUT LOADING ANY AMMUNITION, proceed through the operating steps, dry firing your gun with CO2 only several times at a safe target. This will enable you to learn to operate the PowerLine 15XT properly and safely.
