TAKING CARE OF THE GUN

It is the nature of the pellet injection operation that a certain amount of blood, scales, dirt, etc. , will be deposited on the plunger and carried back into the gun mechanisms. As with any precision mechanism, the injector gun should be kept clean for the smoothest operating results.

Clean the plunger with the needle removed and the plunger extended during use.

Disassemble the gun stock halves for cleaning the internal plunger surfaces as necessary to keep the plunger mechanisms working smoothly. The internal mechanisms are exposed for cleaning by removing the gun stock assembly screws (26) and prying apart the halves with the gun lying flat and the needle facing to the left. Clean the plunger, plunger guide and slide surfaces with a detergent solution or alcohol. Do not oil the plunger, plunger guide or slide surfaces. Lubrication of these parts is not necessary although a little pencil lead or dry teflon aerosol lubricant on parts may give smoother action.
