Unused cartridges and devices that are not currently in use must be stored
protected from moisture and excessive heat.
The device and the cartridges are to be stored such that they are secured against
unauthorised use.
6.7 Thermal hazard
Do not exceed the stipulated max. firing frequency (number of shots per
hour = 17), as otherwise this could result in burns.
Do not dismantle the device when it is hot!
6.8 Requirements for the user and personnel restrictions
The device is intended for use by adults and professional users.
It is forbidden to pass the device on to minors. Butchers' trainees are an exception
to this. Keep the device away from children and never leave it unsupervised.
The
device shall be operated and cleaned exclusively by authorised and trained
personnel. Always pay careful attention when working. Work deliberately and do
not use the device if you are not able to concentrate or if you are distracted.
Interrupt the work if you feel unwell. Observe the animal closely and take evasive
movements into account.
6.9 Personal protective gear
The user and any other persons who are in the immediate vicinity must
wear hearing protection whilst the device is being used.
7. Commissioning
The animal protection order for animal slaughter stipulates that the correct
function of the cattle stunning apparatus must be checked at least once before
the start of work.
7.1 Check device
(before and after each use).
Ensure that there is no blank cartridge in the cartridge receiver. The active parts
shall exhibit no corrosion! Check the position of the bolt. To do so, hold the device
vertically with the exit opening downwards. The bolt must be at least 4 mm inside
the sleeve and must hold itself in place there (see troubleshooting). Check the
rubber buffer and the bolt spring for wear. The lock must be screwed in flush with
the sleeve.
7.2 Alternatives
Test the device with a test block and/or a speed measurement device, and
document this test.

8. Using the device
Read through these operating instructions carefully before initial
commissioning and use figures 1 - 4 on the second page for better
understanding.
Use hearing protection (user and persons in the vicinity). Noises that are
too loud can damage your hearing.
Please check that the cattle stunning apparatus is complete and that it
is functioning properly and operationally capable before use!
Never direct the device towards yourself or other persons! Watch
out for evasive movements by the animal!
8.1
Loading
Unscrew the headpiece counter-clockwise, insert a blank cartridge (calibre 9x17
centre-fire) with the percussion cap (coloured point) upwards, into the
intermediate piece.
Screw the headpiece on fully, clockwise, hand-tight. Ensure
that the annular spring is not twisted. The opening of the annular spring must lie
opposite the trigger!
8.2. Cocking
Pull the striking pin out by the striking pin nut until the trigger can be heard
latching into place.
The cattle stunning apparatus is now ready to fire.
When loading the blank cartridge and cocking the striking pin, the
device must be held such that it is not directed towards operator's own
body or other people.
The striking pin shall only be cocked immediately before firing!
The device shall not be held by the muzzle. As a matter of principle,
never hold the bottom end of the device (where the bolt emerges)
against the body – even when looking for potential faults (see
troubleshooting).
If a loaded cattle stunning apparatus is not to be fired immediately, it
should be unloaded again!
