SWITCHING ON/OFF
SWITCHING ON
Attach the chip (8) to the simulator body and move it from right to left. This will switch simulator ON
and the LED (9) will flash. The number of flashes indicates the battery status:
• 5 flashes – the battery is 100% full
• 4 flashes – the battery is at 75% charge level
• 3 flashes – the battery is at 50% charge level
• 2 flashes – the battery is at 25% charge level
• 1 flash – the battery is discharged, replace it.
After the battery test, the LED light remains constantly blue to indicate the laser is on and ready for
use.
The LED flashing continuously blue means the battery is discharged and it should be immediately
replaced.
SWITCHING OFF
The laser container will switch off approximately 20 minutes after the last shot. In case you need to
switch it off immediately, remove the battery from the simulator body.

SETTINGS
The user can only set or maintain the following:
• set the simulator sights (the laser dot)
• set the trigger position, weight and travel
• set the grip angle
• change the battery
• change the simulator stock
It is forbidden to open or modify the laser simulator, with the exception of changing the battery
or grip. The Laser beam parameters can only be changed by the manufacturer or an authorized
person. The simulator owner must confirm his consent to the change in writing. The manufacturer
does not assume responsibility for any damage that would arise from the change.
SETTING THE SIGHTS (ALIGNING THE LASER DOT)
To adjust the simulator sights, aim at awhite wall or awhite object from adistance of 10 meters
and check the alignment of the red laser dot and simulator sights. If necessary, use the adjusting
screws to align the laser dot:
• Turning the screw (10a) clockwise – laser dot moves to the right
• Turning the screw (10a) counterclockwise – laser dot moves to the left
• Turning the screw (10b) clockwise – laser dot goes downward
• Turning the screw (10b) counterclockwise – laser dot goes upward
IMPORTANT: The movement of the adjusting screws must be very small.

SETTING THE TRIGGER POSITION
After loosening the screw (A) you can change the position of the trigger forward or backward.
After loosening the screws (B) you can change the position of the trigger upwards or downwards.
SETTING THE TRIGGER WEIGHT AND TRAVEL
Second stage weight
The second stage weight is already exactly adjusted by the manufacturer and it is not recommended
to change it. In case you still need to change its setting, carry out the following:
• Turn the screw (11) counterclockwise by one turn.
• Load the simulator by means of the lever.
• Turn the screw (11) very slowly clockwise untill simulator shoots by itself.
• Turn the screw (11) counterclockwise by one ¼ turn.
By this, the second stage weight is set. Check the correct function by few shots.
First stage weight
Turning the screw (12) clockwise increases the first stage trigger weight. Turning the screw (12)
counterclockwise reduces the first stage trigger weight.
First stage travel weight
Turning the screw (13) clockwise increases the first stage travel weight. Turning the screw (13)
counterclockwise reduces the first stage travel weight.
