Cannon Instructions

(Print out for a permanent copy)

1. Roll up a ball of saran or plastic wrap about 1 inch in diameter and place in the bottom of the cannon. You may need to push it in with a dowel rod.

2. Close the valve with handle at the top.

3. Take to a gas station or use a conwin inflator hooked up to a nitrogen or helium tank and fill with 90 - 100 lbs. of pressure through the bike attachment on the side. Check pressure with a regular tire gauge. DO NOT OVERPRESURIZE.

4. Attach top portion of cannon by screwing on.

5. Fill top portion with long confetti or round confetti and lightly pack in.

6. Place a piece of masking tape loosely over the top to keep confetti in.

7. Aim and shoot by opening the valve. Do not let children handle cannons because they could hurt someone if improperly used.

These cannons can shoot 30-50 feet. (my experience is around 35 feet)

I would practice a shot or two before going out to do a job.
