E-Cocker question

[afultz075]

On E-Cockers, do you have to pull the back block back before gassing up so the first shot isn't a dry fire?

[teufelhunden]

On any 'Cocker you should cock it so the hammer isn't resting on the valve, therefore causing a leak down the barrel.

[afultz075]

So I should just pull the cocking rod, or the whole backblock back?

[teufelhunden]

They do the same thing.
