Always ensure you are wearing safety glasses before operating the blaster.

1. Wear Eye Protection: Put on your safety glasses.
2. Prime the Blaster: The X-Shot Hyper Gel Clutch Blaster features a manual winding mechanism. Pull back the priming grip located at the front of the blaster until it locks into place. This action prepares the blaster to fire.
3. Aim: Point the blaster at your target, ensuring it is a safe and appropriate target.
4. Fire: Pull the trigger to launch a gel pellet. The blaster supports both fully automatic and semi-automatic firing modes, depending on how the trigger is operated and the priming mechanism.

5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: After use, wipe down the blaster with a clean, damp cloth. Do not submerge the blaster in water.
• Gel Pellet Storage: Store unused hydrated gel pellets in an airtight container, submerged in water, to prevent them from dehydrating. They can last for several weeks when stored properly.
• Dehydrated Pellets: Store dehydrated pellets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Blaster Storage: Store the blaster in a cool, dry place. Ensure the magazine is empty before storing.

6. Troubleshooting

• Blaster Not Firing:
  • Ensure the blaster is properly primed by pulling back the priming grip until it locks.
  • Check if the magazine is correctly inserted and full of hydrated gel pellets.
• Gel Pellets Getting Stuck/Jams:
  • Ensure gel pellets are fully hydrated. Under-hydrated pellets can be too small and cause jams.
  • Over-hydrated pellets can be too soft and break apart, causing jams. Ensure they are drained of excess water.
  • Carefully remove the magazine and clear any visible obstructions from the feeding mechanism. Do not force anything.
• Low Firing Velocity:
  • Ensure the blaster is fully primed.
  • Verify that the gel pellets are correctly hydrated.
