De-cocking an FX Royale 400

[Adelaide75]

Dear PCP friends,

Have just today purchased an FX Royale 400, but am struggling to find out how to De-cock the rifle without dry firing. Any guidance would be very much appreciated.

I am under the impression that it is the same way as my FX independence ....open cocking arm as if you were to load a new pellet hold it open and don't let it go while you depress the trigger ...same way in theory you would de-cock a bolt action rifle.
i hope this helps

Hi Jonathon, thanks for that.
2 quick (and potentially stupid) questions, but A) do I keep the trigger depressed whilst I'm pushing the sidelever all the way forward?
B) I do all of this with the safety on?

Cheers, Mike.

Safety off pull cocking lever back till you feel resistance then pull trigger the lever will catch hammer and slowly let lever return to closed position. Once you pull the trigger you do not need to keep holding it in.

Here is a video of the rifle and at the 7:23 minute mark he talks about decocking the rifle. Hope this helps also
