• Slide the upper target roller assembly onto the top of the two tubes so that the an-
gled deflector plate faces forward and is positioned to deflect hits downward.
• Tighten the wing nuts on the back side of the upper assembly securely. (See Fig.3)
Operation
• Turn power switch to the ON position on the motor assembly and pull out the an-
tenna to its full length.
• Turn on the power to the remote with the switch on the side of the remote. Press
the upper button on the remote to begin advancing the target. Press the lower but-
ton to stop the target from advancing. Line up a target in the center of the opening.
• The target should be fairly taut so that it does not move excessively in the wind.
The tension on the target roll can be adjusted with the knob on the left hand side of
the upper target roller assembly. Loosen the outer knob, then adjust inner knob
clockwise to add tension and counter-clockwise to decrease the amount of tension.
Apply just enough tension to keep the target taut. Too much tension will need-
lessly overwork the motor. Tighten outer knob once adjustment is complete. (See
Fig.9)
• Place the target stand down range as you would any other target stand. Follow all
of your local range rules regarding target stands. To secure the stand once in place,
four large landscape spikes are provided. Drive them through the holes in the legs
by hand or with a mallet. This will keep the stand stable in moderate wind or if the
frame is accidentally shot. In the case of concrete, asphalt or frozen ground, sand
bags or bags of lead shot could be used to provide stability.
• After a target is used up, use the remote from your shooting location to advance to
a fresh one. Use the top button on the remote to begin advancing and once a new
target is lined up in the opening press the bottom button to stop it. The use of a
spotting scope or your rifle scope may be necessary at longer ranges.
• A crank handle is supplied with the Auto-Advance system that will allow the tar-
gets to be rolled back onto the upper roll. This is used to rewind the targets back
onto the upper roll so that they can be reviewed. First disengage the motor from
the spindle by pulling out the knob and turning as described above, then place the
crank handle on the hex bolt on the right hand side of the upper target roller as-
sembly. Crank the handle clockwise to rewind the targets.
Changing Target Rolls
When a roll of targets is used up, it will need to be rewound back onto the upper
roll. Disengage the motor from the spindle by pulling out the knob and turning, then
rewind the spent roll completely with the crank handle. (Tip: a cordless drill on low
speed with a 10mm socket could be used to speed up rewinding) After rewinding the
roll, rotate the locking cam on the right hand side of the upper target roller assembly
up and forwards. Lift the right hand side of the target roll up and out of the slot and
pull the other end of the target roll off of the left hand side stud. Replace the roll with
a new one following the assembly instructions.
Changing/Replacing Legs
Inevitably the legs on your unit will sustain accidental shots or damage. Be-
cause of this, standard ¾” EMT Electrical Conduit tubing is used for the legs
of the Auto-Advance System. Contact Lyman or visit the Lyman website at
www.lymanproducts.com to purchase replacement legs, or this inexpensive
tubing can be found at most hardware stores or home centers. Factory legs are
