DESCRIPTION
The CO2 GUN II is a handheld gun-shaped device for safe shooting of CO2 into
the air.
Before operation the CO2 GUN II needs to be connected to a CO2 cylinder. When
the user squeezes the handle, the CO2 is released from the barrel. The shot is
accompanied by a strong hissing sound and a white plume of smoke will be
visible from the barrel.
Visibility of the effect can vary due to air humidity. The output will be more visible when there is high absolute air humidity.

work with the CO2 GUN II.
The CO2 GUN II must be used in surroundings that:
- Have a reasonably stable temperature of between -10 and 70 °C;
- Have a relative humidity degree between 20 % and 90 % (non condensing);
- Are free of dust, corrosive gases and high concentrations of organic vapours.

CO2
The CO2 GUN II uses liquid or gaseous CO2 as input.
The application of CO2 involves serious risks. Make sure that you are well
informed on these risks before installation and/or operation. Always use
approved CO2 cylinders, hoses and connections. Always consult your CO2
supplier for regulations and instructions on safe installation and use.
MAGIC FX is not liable for unsafe situations, accidents and damage that are
the result of incorrect working with CO2 and CO2 cylinders.
Inadequate installation and/or operation of a CO2 powered machine and CO2 cylinders can lead to death or serious injury. Always follow the instructions from this manual, from your CO2 supplier and from local authorities
INDOOR USE
The CO2 GUN II is designed for outdoor use and use in well-ventilated indoor
spaces.
When used indoors, make sure you take the necessary preparations. These
preparations could include, but are not limited to:
- Consulting your CO2 supplier.
- Calculating the reduction of oxygen for the indoor space.
- Checking the location for spots where CO could accumulate and taking preventive actions.
- Installing CO2 monitoring devices that will warn for hazardous CO2 levels.
Do not use the CO2 GUN II in poorly ventilated confined spaces. Exposure to high levels of CO2 can cause symptoms like headache, nausea, loss of consciousness or even death.
NOISE LEVELS
The environmental noise level measured at 1 m (39.4 in) from the product is 103 dB(A). This level of noise is only reached during the short shooting instances. Therefore hearing protection is not necessary
Do not operate the CO2 GUN II close to yourself or to others for a long period of time. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the unit.

SAFETY WARNINGS
Using a damaged or an improper installed machine can lead to death, serious injury or property damage. Always inspect the machine thoroughly before operation.
Always hold the gun firmly with two hands while in a stable standing position. When fired a reactive force is produced, causing a backlash vibration. This can lead to injuries when the gun is released from the hands unintentionally or when the backlash causes the user to lose balance.
Missing or obscured safety symbols on the machine can lead to death or serious injury. Make sure all safety symbols are correctly in place, see section 2.5..
During operation electrostatic discharge can occur when the machine is touched. Prevent the discomfort of a possible static shock by wearing gloves.
