> Non-Electric 'HR' Initiator Instruction & Care Information <
Practical and economical. Made of super-tough delrin and nylon with all steel firing mechanism. Well made yet thrifty tool.

The Scorpion "HR" models are mechanical initiators designed for initiation of non-electric blasting systems.

Utilizing the energy release of the #209 shotgun shell primer which is readily loaded into the HR's breech block, it can be readied for operation in just a few seconds. After cocking and loading, with the flashguard in place to protect the blaster, non-electric tubing is inserted into the barrel of the nozzle and the device is ready to initiate the blast by simply flipping the trigger from its cocked position.

TO INITIATE:

1. Pull back and align Cock Pin so that is seats in the locked position as shown above
2. Remove Safety Pin from Through Hole in Flash Guard.
3. Slide Flash Guard toward Cock Pin so as to expose the Nozzle.
4. While twisting clockwise pull Nozzle away from fork (not shown).
5. Place shotgun shell primer in base of Nozzle.
6. Replace Nozzle onto forks until snug and seated properly.
7. Slide Flash Guard forward toward Nozzle.
8. Place Safety Pin into Safety Pin Hole.
9. String Non-Electric firing line through Through Hole and up and around into Nozzle.
10. When blast site is secured and free of people remove Safety Pin from Safety Pin Hole.
11. Apply backward pressure to Cock Pin and while holding it stationary rotate it into Firing Pin Track.
12. Release pressure on Cock Pin so as to let it freely move along Firing Pin Track.

TO SECURE:

1. Remove spent Non-Electric line from Nozzle and Through Holes.
2. Repeat step under "TO INITIATE" so as to re-cock the Cock Pin.
3. Slide Flash Guard down toward Cock Pin.
