.j <br />of Ts1 October 22, 1984 <br />MCPLrTo Robert L. Pavlak, Sr. <br />•TTN11 District of Minnesota <br />avaxcTl XR-5000 Stun Gun <br />Chapter 7 - Red Book <br />memoranum <br />01, <br />U.S. Marshal ic <br />Vol All Operational Personnel <br />District of Minnesota <br />New information has recently been developed and transmitted to the <br />field from Headquarters regarding the use of the XR-5000 Stun Gun <br />since original information was transmitted in August, 1984. <br />At this time, I wish to reiterate that all personnel in the <br />District of Minnesota should familiarize themselves with the <br />Standard Operating Procedures for use of the XR-5000 Stun Cun, <br />as outlined in teletype dated October 17, 1984. <br />Below you will find enumerated specific standard operating <br />procedures, as outlined by Headquarters. At the present time, the. <br />District will remain within the guidelines as prescribed by <br />Headquarters. <br />1. Read the instructions which come with the XR-5000 Stun Gun. <br />2. Use a 9-volt rechargeable nickel -cadmium battery oni. <br />Mallory or G.E. batteries are recommended. <br />3. Be sure the battery is fully charged. Fo_low the battery <br />manufacturer's directions. The battery should be charged <br />every- nine or ten days only. Be sure battery is well drained <br />o power be ore_rechar4in Charge baite__y_ten to twelve <br />-ours. <br />4. Fire a test charge of one-half to one second duration before <br />each day's use to determine the gun is ready for use. Keep <br />hands and body away from contact and test probes. <br />5. When the battery is fully charged, a blast of two to three <br />seconds is sufficient to immobilize an attacker, cause <br />disorientation, and leave him weak and dazed for several <br />minutes. A shorter blast or a battery less than fully <br />charged will cause proportionally less results. If the Stun <br />Gun is used on a subject, a blast of equal to three (3) <br />seconds with a fully charged battery should be employed. <br />0rT,0NAI rC4%- Mo 10 <br />,w[v 1-w <br />GswrrMRAlQVOt>101.11.• <br />PC! 0.114 <br />
