LOADING THE ACTUATOR SPRING AND CHANGNG THE CYLINDERS
In order to load the spring with enough force to pierce the dual cartridges, you need to screw down the
spring-loading cap with considerable force. After the actuator has fired, first unscrew the cap until the
trigger is cocked. You can see and hear when this occurs. When the trigger is loaded, you must screw
down the cap until the green band appears as shown below.
The actuator is not properly loaded
unless the green band is exposed!
