These conditions can impair your powers of judgment and reflexes. •Always think of the pistol as being loaded and with the safety off until you have established the opposite through the unloading procedure (see Section 4.7 and 4.8). •Allows keep the muzzle of the pistol in a safe direction with all handling. A safe direction is towards an area where there are no people, other life forms or property that is not a recognized target. •Never point the pistol at doors, panes of glass, walls, concrete, stone or flat surfaces (water included). A bullet can penetrate such surfaces or be ricocheted in an unsafe direction. •Never aim at yourself or other life forms. •Never rely on safety mechanisms alone. Safety mecha- nisms are not a substitute for careful, correct and secure handling of the pistol. •Always treat your pistol as if the safety mechanisms were not functioning. The best safety precaution is a correct, well-trained and safe handling of the pistol. •Never shoot with a pistol which has been penetrated by water, sand, dirt or other foreign bodies. •Never decock the hammer by holding on to the hammer and pulling the trigger at the same time. •Never let a loaded pistol out of your hand. •Always unload the pistol immediately after firing, before putting the pistol away, putting into a holster or handing it to another authorized person. •Never give the pistol to a person who has not tho- roughly familiarized himself or herself with the safety instructions and handling of the pistol, by reading the corresponding instructions. •Never leave the pistol lying unattended and protect the pistol from unauthorized access. •Never store the pistol loaded, but rather remove the magazine and ensure that no cartridge is left in the chamber of the barrel. •Always keep the pistol and the ammunition separate from one another, and ensure that neither is obtained by unauthorized persons or children.

9 Safety mechanisms USA 3. Magazine safety Removing the magazine fully from the pistol prevents the pistol from being fired. The magazine must be fully inser- ted into the magazine well in order to fire the pistol. 8USA Transport 3 Transporting the pistol •For your own safety and the safety of others, always transport the pistol unloaded, decockedand closed (see Section 4.7 and 4.8). •Never carry a pistol with you that has already been cocked and which has a round in the chamber. •Always carry the pistol so that if you fall or slip, you always have the direction of the muzzle under control. •Transport the pistol separate from the ammunition. •Ensure that all applicable laws governing the transport of firearms are complied with. Warning 4 Safety mechanisms •Never completely trust any safety mechanism. Your pistol is equipped with effective, well designed safety mechanisms. 1. Manual safety Engaging manual safety: Push the manual safety down fully to engage (see figure 1 part # 46). This prevents firing of the pistol. Disengaging manual safety: Push manual safety up fully to disengage (see figure 1 part # 46). This allows the pistol to be fired. 2. Integral safety lock (key operated) Locking: (see figure 4 and 5) Pistol must be decocked. Insert key into opening at bottom rear of the grip. Push key to depress lock and rotate 90 degrees. Remove key leaving end of lock below the grip surface (see figure 5). This locking feature prevents the firing of the pistol. Unlocking: (see figure 2 and 3) Pistol must be decocked. Insert key into opening at bot- tom rear of grip. Push key to depress lock and rotate 90 degrees. Remove key leaving end of lock flush or even with bottom of grip ( see figure 3).

11 Handling the pistol USA 5.4 Loading the pistol (ready for firing) •Never load or unload the pistol inside a vehicle, inside a building or any other enclosed space (except in a designated firing range). •Before loading always wipe off any excess grease and oil and check to see if there are any foreign objects/ material in the barrel. •Allows keep the muzzle of the pistol pointed in a safe direction. •Do not put your finger on the trigger. Keep your finger outside the trigger guard. •Load the pistol by pushing in the magazine only direct- ly before firing. •Never pull the hammer back by hand, but rather with the slide to cock it so that unintentional firing is pre- vented. •Never rely on the safety mechanisms alone. Safety mechanisms are not a substitute for careful and correct handling the pistol. •Never let a loaded pistol out of your hand. Procedure: 1. Point pistol in a safe direction. 2. Insert full magazine and ensure that it is fully engaged. 3. Pull slide back until stop and allow to fly forward. •The pistol is loaded and ready for firing with the single action trigger. Warning •The pistol can now be decocked using the decocking lever. It is then loaded, decocked and ready for firing with the double action trigger. •The pistol is decocked and ready for firing. 5.5 Firing •Ensure that the target and surroundings allow shots to be fired without danger. •Be certain when firing that your fingers, hands or other parts of the body are not in front of, above or beside the barrel muzzle or the ejector port. •Never allow a third person to stand next to you where they could be hit by ejected cartridge cases. •When shooting, always wear ear protection and protective eye glasses. Inform other people close to you about the need to wear ear protection. •Interrupt shooting immediately and unload the pistol if you suspect that a round is not inserted correctly, a case is jammed, a round may have blocked the barrel or a shot sounds or gives the sensation that it may be “weak” or unusual. •Never try to dislodge a blockage by firing another round. Warning 10USA Handling the pistol 5 Handling the pistol 5.1 General The pistol is generally delivered preserved with a thin, protective grease and oil coating and must be stripped before being used for the first time, protective oil or grease removed and lubricated again. “First use“ (see pistol maintenance). Procedure: 1. Strip pistol (see section 6.1). 2. Clean and relubricate pistol (see section 6.2). 3. Assemble pistol (see section 6.3). 5.2 Ammunition •For your pistol, use only commercial grad ammunition in its original packing for which corresponds with the caliber of the pistol. The correct caliber is imprinted on the pistol. •Never use reloaded, “refurbished”, hand-loaded, non- standard ammunition or ammunition of a different caliber. •Never use dirty, wet, corroded, bent, damaged or oiled ammunition. •Never leave the ammunition lying unattended. Warning Information: The .22 ammunition spectrum ranges from very light loads for single loader guns to sport load, utility load and on through to high speed rounds. Unfortunately, how- ever, it is not possible to adjust a semi-automatic gun to all loads. We have therefore decided to make an adjust- ment to the loads that have priority for use with the MOSQUITO, which are the two major groups, utility and high-speed rounds. So to increase the round compatibi- lity, we provide two slide springs for every pistol. The bigger bored version is designed for high-speed loads and is fitted in the pistol with delivery. The simple coiled smaller spring (marked white) is for standard loads and is supplied with the pistol. Tip: It has been proven that many types of utility rounds func- tion more smoothly if the rounds are lightly oiled. Caution: Never oil high-speed rounds, as the pistol can unbolt too quickly while shooting. 5.3 Loading the magazine Procedure: 1. Place load on feeder close to the magazine lips. 2. Push the side lock on the magazine down. 3. Only load the number of rounds that are to be shot (max.10 rounds). The number of inserted rounds can be determined through the slot on the magazine.
