• Screw plate must be removed on models with a rein-

forced muzzle.

• Slide wishbone line through the narrow opening at the 

muzzle end and down into the horizontal muzzle opening 

one at a time. 

• Wet bands with water and soap and slide through 

muzzle opening and position equally. Wishbone line is 

now pointing toward butt of gun

• Muzzle reinforcement screw plate (on models that 

apply) must be reinstalled prior to loading gun.

Power Band Installation

• Install spearshaft under power bands and onto track 

located on top of the speargun stock, 

ensuring loading tabs on shaft are pointed up 

(for both open and closed track).

• Slide spearshaft end into mechanism giving a firm 

push to overcome spring tension, locking shaft into 

position. Push and pull on spearshaft to ensure full 

trigger engagement.

• Do not slam spearshaft into position. This may 

damage firing mechanism.

• Do not use shooting line to pull shaft into 

mechanism.

• Now engage safety and rig your line.

• We recommend traveling with shaft out of track. If 

transporting speargun with engaged shaft, make sure 

spearshaft is secure to the speargun barrel with Velcro 

Strap to prevent damage to spearshaft and mechanism.

• Do not drop or hit spearshafts. This could fracture or 

weaken at the loading notch area.
