SIDE-KICK REMOTE LAUNCHER
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
>> ADAPTING RRT HAND HELD LAUNCHER FOR THE
SIDE-KICK REMOTE LAUNCHER SYSTEM
The Side-Kick Remote Launcher was designed to work with any RRT
Hand Held Launcher built from 1990 to present. The RRT Launchers
manufactured during this time period have a rubber ribbed hand grip and a
plastic or aluminum pull knob. If you have recently purchased a new RRT
Launcher (will have RRT LAUNCHER on the grip in raised lettering) you
can skip step one below.
If you are unsure if your RRT Launcher is compatible contact Specialty
Products Company before attempting to use with your Side-Kick Remote
Launcher System. If your RRT Launcher is different from the ones in the
images to the right, please contact us for possible retrofit options.
1) The rubber grip will require trimming in order to fit into the Side-Kick Launcher Tube. On the base of the grip (end
closest to the pull knob) the lip of the grip must be trimmed. Please refer to image below. This can be achieved by using
a sharp utility knife and turning the grip or turning the grip on a sander. Launchers manufactured after July of 2015 will
not require trimming.
2) Install the black cap plug into the bottom of the pull knob on the RRT Launcher. Lightly tapping with a hammer will help
to set the cap plug. The black plug must be installed completely into the pull knob with no gap present.
3) Install the aluminum pull ring onto the pull knob. Position the pull ring so it is flush with the end of the pull knob and
tighten the set screw securely with the allen wrench.
4) Slide your RRT Hand Held Launcher (with pull rind and cap plug properly installed) into the Side-Kick Launcher Tube.
Position the launcher so the pull ring shaft exits the long slot in the launcher tube. Confirm that the launcher in fully seated
into the tube. A light coating of lubricant will help the launcher slide into the launcher tube. The lubricant must be cleaned
off if the launcher is removed and fired by hand.
