BE SURE THE AIRGUN IS ALWAYS POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION. NEVER POINT THE AIRGUN AT ANY PET OR PERSON EVEN IF IT IS UNCOCKED AND UNLOADED. ALWAYS ASSUME AND HANDLE THE AIRGUN AS IF IT WERE LOADED AND READY TO FIRE. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THE MUZZLE POINTS IN A SAFE DIRECTION. 2. Operating the Safety ON SAFE Your DIANA Air Rifle has an automatic safety. When the airgun is cocked it is automatically put ON Illustration 2a SAFE. To put ON SAFE pull the safeoff SAFE ty button out so that the white circle is showing. This can only be done if the air rifle has been Illustration 2b cocked (see Illustration 2a) To put OFF SAFE (on fire), push the safety button forward so that the white circle is not visible (see Illustration 2b). BEFORE YOU PUT YOUR AIR RIFLE OFF SAFE, BE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN THAT YOUR AIR RIFLE IS POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION AND THAT YOU ARE READY TO FIRE. ONCE YOUR AIR RIFLE IS COCKED AND AUTOMATICALLY ON SAFE, DO NOT RECOCK THE AIR RIFLE WHILE IT IS LOADED. TO PUT IT BACK ON SAFE, SEE STEP 2. OPERATING THE SAFETY FOR INSTRUCTION ON HOW TO PUT THE AIR RIFLE BACK ON SAFE. LIKE ALL MECHANICAL DEVICES, AN AIRGUN SAFETY CAN FAIL. EVEN WHEN THE SAFETY IS "ON SAFE", YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO HANDLE THE AIRGUN SAFELY. NEVER POINT THE AIRGUN AT ANYTHING YOU DO NOT INTEND TO SHOOT. 5

Operation Manual EN 3. Cocking Your Air Rifle WHEN COCKING THE AIR RIFLE DO NOT PLACE YOUR HAND OVER OR IN FRONT OF THE MUZZLE. NEVER ALLOW THE MUZZLE TO POINT TOWARD YOU OR ANYONE ELSE DURING COCKING. ALWAYS KEEP THE MUZZLE POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION. NEVER LEAVE ANY AIRGUN COCKED FOR MORE THAN A FEW MINUTES BECAUSE THE MAINSPRING CAN WEAKEN. BREAK-BARREL Make sure that the muzzle points in a safe direction. With one hand grasp the top of the rear stock firmly, avoid contact with the trigger, and Illustration 3a brace the butt end of the stock against your thigh. Grasp the barrel near the muzzle end, just behind the muzzle. Pull downward and to the rear until it comes to a solid stop. You will hear a click indicating that the spring piston has been locked into position (see Illustration 3a). Do not let go of the barrel. UNDER-LEVER Make sure that the muzzle points in a safe direction. With one hand grasp stock firmly behind trigger guard, avoiding Illustration 3b contact with the trigger, and brace the butt end of the stock against your thigh. Grasp the cocking lever near the muzzle end. Pull the cocking lever downward until it comes to a solid stop. (see Illustration 3b). SIDE-LEVER Make sure that the muzzle points in a safe direction. Firmly grasp the air rifle in a manner which will not interfere with the cocking lever. Pull the side lever to6

ward butt of the gun until it comes to a solid stop (see Illustration 3c). This action will cock the gun and open the breech. Illustration 3c DO NOT FIRE WITH THE BARREL OPEN. THIS MAY RESULT IN INJURY, A BENT BARREL, AND/OR CRACKED STOCK AND WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY NEVER CARRY YOUR AIR RIFLE WHILE COCKED AND/ OR WHILE LOADED. IT IS BEST TO COCK THE AIR RIFLE ONLY BEFORE SHOOTING. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOUR AIR RIFLE BE CARRIED COCKED AND LOADED. 4. Loading Your Air Rifle Insert a pellet carefully into the chamber of the breech end which is exposed when you cock the air rifle (Break barrel see Illustration 4a; Under-lever see Illustration 4b; Side lever see Illustration 4c). Be sure to seat the pellet flush with the breech. Avoid damaging the pellet skirt. Illustration 4a Illustration 4b COCKING SAFETY LEVER PINCH POINT USE ONLY THE CALIBER PELLET Illustration 4c DESIGNATED FOR YOUR AIR RIFLE. THE CORRECT CALIBER IS CLEARLY MARKED ON THE AIRGUN. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REUSE PELLETS THAT COCKING SAFETY LEVER HAVE BEEN FIRED OR ARE DEFORMED. DO NOT USE BUCK SHOT, DARTS, BALL BEARINGS, OR OTHER FOREIGN OBJECTS BECAUSE THEY CAN CAUSE INJURY TO YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE OR MAY DAMAGE AND/OR JAM THE AIRGUN. 7

Operation Manual EN 5. Closing the Barrel BREAK-BARREL Firmly grasp the barrel behind the front sight, return the barrel to its original closed and latched position. UNDER-LEVER IMPORTANT: Before returning the under-lever to its original position, firmly grasp the cocking lever and DEPRESS THE COCKING SAFETY LEVER (see Illustration 4b) located on the right side of the cylinder. Close the cocking lever to its original position. NOTE: There should be NO pressure on cocking lever when returning it to original position. If there is pressure, the air rifle has not been fully cocked. SIDE-LEVER Before returning the side lever to its original position, depress the cocking safety lever (see Illustration 4c) on the left side of the cylinder. Grasp the side-lever, close to its original position. NOTE: There should be NO pressure on cocking lever when returning it to original position. If there is pressure, the air rifle has not been fully cocked. UNDER-LEVER MODELS ONLY: To prevent the cocking lever from falling out of the lever holder underneath the front sight do the following: Make sure the air rifle is UNLOADED and UNCOCKED. Now, tighten the small screw underneath the muzzle to increase the tension on the cocking lever retaining ball. Look at the screw from an angle and never look directly into the muzzle of the air rifle. If this does not correct the problem then proceed in this sequence: Make certain the air rifle is UNLOADED and UNCOCKED. Disengage cocking lever from underneath front sight, loosen set screw on top side of front sight, place a piece of soft wood on muzzle end of front sight and then using a hammer VERY LIGHTLY tap the wood to seat the sight completely down on the barrel. Retighten the set screw on top side of front sight. If the cocking lever seats too tight after completing this process you may need to slightly loosen the small screw underneath the muzzle to decrease the tension on the cocking lever retaining ball. 8

BE CAREFUL TO KEEP FINGERS CLEAR OF COCKING MECHANISIM (SEE PINCH POINTS, ILLUSTRATION 4C, 5A AND 5B). GRASP THE BARREL FIRMLY AS YOU COCK IT AND CLOSE IT TO PREVENT IT FROM SNAPPING BACK AND POSSIBLY CAUSING INJURY. PINCH POINT PINCH POINT Illustration 5a PINCH POINT PINCH POINT Illustration 5b 6. Aiming at a Safe Target Always aim your air rifle in a SAFE DIRECTION. Always choose your target carefully. It is best to shoot at a paper bullseye target which is attached to a safe backstop. A heavy blanket should be hung behind the target backstop to prevent ricochet should you miss the backstop. Think about what you will hit if you miss the target. SOME DIANA AIR RIFLES have open sights. Air rifles with this type of sight are correctly aimed when the front sight blade is positioned exactly in the notch of the rear sight. The top of the front sight blade should be even with the top of the notch in the rear sight. The bullseye should appear to rest on the top of the front sight (see Illustration 6). Illustration 6 YOUR BACKSTOP SHOULD BE INSPECTED FOR WEAR BEFORE AND AFTER EACH USE. DISCONTINUE USE IF THE BACKSTOP SURFACE SHOWS SIGNS OF FAILURE. ALWAYS PLACE THE BACKSTOP IN A LOCATION THAT WILL BE SAFE SHOULD THE BACKSTOP FAIL. DISCONTINUE THE USE OF A BACKSTOP IF THE PROJECTILE REBOUNDS OR RICOCHETS. 9

Operation Manual EN BEFORE YOU PUT YOUR AIR RIFLE OFF SAFE, BE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN THAT YOUR AIR RIFLE IS POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION AND THAT YOU ARE READY TO FIRE. ONCE YOUR AIR RIFLE IS COCKED AND AUTOMATICALLY ON SAFE, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PUT IT BACK ON SAFE UNLESS YOU RE-COCK THE AIR RIFLE. DO NOT RECOCK THE AIR RIFLE WHILE IT IS LOADED TO PUT IT BACK ON SAFE. 7. Firing Your Air Rifle When you are absolutely sure your air rifle is aimed at a safe target and you are ready to fire, put your air rifle OFF SAFE (see STEP 2. OPERATING THE SAFETY). Squeeze the trigger. IF A PELLET DOES NOT FIRE AFTER COMPLETING THE OPERATION STEPS, THE AIRGUN MAY BE JAMMED. AN UNFIRED PROJECTILE IN THE BARREL CAN BE A DANGEROUS SITUATION. KEEP THE AIRGUN POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION AND REPEAT ALL OPERATION STEPS EXCEPT STEP 3. IF A PROJECTILE STILL DOES NOT FIRE, DO THE FOLLOWING: 1. Make sure airgun is pointed in a safe direction. 2. Cock the airgun and leave the barrel open with the safety in the ON SAFE position. 3. Clear barrel by inserting a cleaning rod through the muzzle end. 4. Repeat operation steps. NOTE: Many factors affect airgun performance and velocity, including brand of projectile, lubrication, barrel condition and temperature. NEVER ASSUME THAT BECAUSE THE AIRGUN NO LONGER FIRES A PROJECTILE THAT A PROJECTILE IS NOT LODGED IN THE BARREL. ALWAYS TREAT THE AIRGUN AS THOUGH IT IS LOADED AND WITH THE SAME RESPECT YOU WOULD A FIREARM. 10

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REUSE FIRED PELLETS OR PELLETS WHICH ARE DEFORMED. PROJECTILES SUCH AS STEEL SHOT (BBS) AND DARTS MAY DAMAGE YOUR AIR RIFLE AND CAUSE INJURY TO YOURSELF OR BYSTANDERS DUE TO RICOCHETING, AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY. LEAD PELLETS CONTAIN LEAD, A CHEMICAL KNOWN TO THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO CAUSE CANCER AND BIRTH DEFECTS OR OTHER REPRODUCTIVE HARM. DO NOT INHALE DUST OR PUT LEAD PELLETS IN MOUTH. WASH HANDS AFTER HANDLING. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN. 8.

WHEN ADJUSTED BELOW 3 LBS, THE AIRGUN COULD FIRE WHEN DROPPED. Trouble Shooting 10 a. Unloading a Pellet Fire the pellet at a SAFE TARBREECH RAMROD GET to unload the airgun. II this is not practical, pul the MUZZLE air rille ON SAFE, cock the Illustration 9 airgun to open the barrel, and push the pellet from the chamber by running a cleaning rod through the muzzle end. Insert 2 DIANA Cleaning Pellets and discharge into a safe target (see Illustration 9). 13

Operation Manual EN 10 b. Removing a Jammed Pellet If a pellet is jammed in the barrel, DO NOT reload the air rifle. 1. Cock the air rifle (see STEP 3. COCKING YOUR AIR RIFLE), point the air rifle in a SAFE DIRECTION, put the air rifle in the OFF SAFE position and squeeze the trigger to fire. 2. Break the barrel open slightly (without pulling the barrel all the way down to the point that it cocks) and look down the breech to see if the air rifle is jammed (see Illustration 9). NEVER LOOK DOWN THE MUZZLE. 3. If the air rifle is still jammed, with the barrel opened slightly, insert a correct caliber ramrod into the muzzle and push the jammed pellet out. Do not try to reuse that pellet. If you are not able to unjam your air rifle, contact your dealer. 11. Care and Maintenance BEFORE ANY CARE, CLEANING OR MAINTENANCE, ALWAYS BE SURE YOUR AIRGUN IS UNLOADED. KEEP POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION. IT IS IMPORTANT TO PERFORM ROUTINE INSPECTIONS AND MAINTAIN YOUR AIRGUN PROPERLY. NEVER STORE A LOADED OR COCKED AIRGUN. Unload pellet from the airgun. Keep air rifle away from children and untrained shooters. Store pellets separately from the air rifle to keep them from untrained shooters. Protect your air rifle from moisture and dirt; clean airgun and wrap it in a smooth, dry cloth. If you are going to store your airgun for an extended length of time be sure the barrel is protected. Always use a soft cloth and insert the cleaning rod from the breech end on break barrel rifles. Remove the oil completely before the next use. REMEMBER: Always check to see that the airgun is unloaded when getting from storage or from another person. With care and routine inspections your airgun will provide many sessions of shooting enjoyment. Abuse, neglect and continued exposure to the elements will impair the performance of any airgun. 14

Your DIANA Air Rifle is designed to fire caliber.177 or.22 pellets only. We recommend the use of DIANA Pellets because of their superb accuracy and dimensional uniformity. The correct caliber is clearly indicated on the rifle. NEVER DRY FIRE YOUR AIR RIFLE. IF THE AIR RIFLE IS FIRED WITHOUT A LEAD PELLET IT WILL CAUSE THE PISTON TO BOTTOM OUT IN THE CYLINDER WHICH CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE AIR RIFLE. CHECK THE TIGHTNESS OF THE STOCK SCREWS BETWEEN, DURING, AND AFTER SHOOTING ACTIVITY. LOOSE SCREWS MAY CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. OILS THAT CONTAIN ACID OR RESIN CAN DAMAGE SEALS AND POSSIBLY THE FINISH OF THE AIRGUN. AN AIRGUN THAT IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY MAY BE DANGEROUS. IT SHOULD BE KEPT SAFELY FROM USE BY ANYONE UNTIL REPAIRED OR DESTROYED. DO NOT TRY TO TAKE THE AIRGUN APART. IT IS DIFFICULT TO REASSEMBLE AND IMPROPER DISASSEMBLY OR REASSEMBLY CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. WORKING PARTS The working parts (piston and mainspring) require very little lubrication. Two (2) drops every 1000 shots will suffice. It is easily applied through the compression chamber port with a 3 1/2" applicator needle (see Illustrations 10a and 10b). The wearing surfaces at the barrel hinge, the cocking arm, and the trigger mech- Illustration 10a Illustration 10b 15

Operation Manual EN anism should be lubricated with oil (see illustration 11). Mainsprings should be oiled every 1000 shots with drops Illustration 11 of oil (see illustrations 12a and 12b). Remember, a little is good a lot is not better. BARREL: In day to day use, very little dirt or residue will accumulate in the bore. Illustration 12a During periods of regular use the bore of the barrel should be cleaned periodically by means of a felt wad or cleaning rod with wool mop. Insert rod from breech end, Illustration 12b do not remove barrel seal. SURFACE: The exposed metal parts (receiver, screw heads, trigger, etc.) are a gun blue finish and MUST be wiped clean using a slightly oiled cloth after handling to prevent rust. Use light acid free and resin free oil. 12. Reviewing Safety You and others with you MUST always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes. If you wear reading glasses the lenses must be certified for impact resistance or you should wear safety glasses intended for use over normal optical reading glasses. Always aim in a SAFE DIRECTION. Always keep the muzzle of the airgun pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION. Always keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to shoot. Never point the airgun at anything you do not intend to shoot. Never point an airgun at people or pets. Always treat the airgun as though it is loaded and with the same respect you would a firearm. Never look down the barrel of an airgun. Always keep the airgun uncocked and unloaded until you are ready to shoot. Always check to see if the airgun is uncocked and unloaded when getting it from another person or from storage. 16

Never leave a loaded airgun unattended. Use only the proper size and type of projectile as it is marked on the airgun. Never reuse ammunition. Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The projectile may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or something you had not intended to hit. Do not shoot at fragile objects such as windows. Place the backstop in a location that will be safe should the backstop fail. Your backstop should be checked for wear before and after each use. All backstops are subject to wear and will eventually fail. Replace your backstop if the surface is worn or damaged or if a ricochet occurs. Do not attempt to disassemble or tamper with your airgun. Unauthorized repairs or modifying the function of your airgun in any way may be unsafe and will void your warranty. Before you store or transport your airgun, make sure it is unloaded and is uncocked. Always store your airgun in a secure location away from unauthorized users and separate from ammunition. Only persons who are thoroughly familiar with the airgun s function and proper use and who are allowed by law should handle the airgun. Always wear safety shooting glasses when shooting or performing maintenance on airguns. Only shoot where permitted by law. THE COMPONENTS OF THIS AIRGUN WERE ENGINEERED AND MANUFACTURED TO DELIVER OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE. ANY MODIFICATION OR TAMPERING WITH AN AIRGUN MAY CAUSE A MALFUNCTION, VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND MAY MAKE IT UNSAFE TO USE. ANY CHANGE IN PERFORMANCE (SUCH AS A LOWERED TRIGGER PULL FORCE AND SHORTENED TRIGGER TRAVEL) INDICATES POSSIBLE MODIFICATION, TAMPERING AND/OR WEAR. SUCH AIRGUN SHOULD BE INSPECTED, REPLACED, OR PROPERLY REPAIRED BY ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL. ANY AIRGUN THAT HAS BEEN DROPPED SHOULD BE CHECKED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL TO ENSURE THAT ITS FUNCTION HAS NOT BEEN AFFECTED. 17
