Operation and Maintenance Manual

use if the optional baffle removal tool is not used to aid in disassembly. If
the baffle removal tool is used, the cleaning interval can be extended to
every 1,000 rounds. One brand of ammunition may leave a different quan-
tity and quality of unburned powder, lead, and other debris in your silencer
than another. Over time you will become the best judge of how many
rounds of your chosen ammunition you can fire through your AVIATOR 2
before disassembly for maintenance and cleaning to remove accumulated
fouling.
WARNING! Only perform disassembly, cleaning, and maintenance
procedures on silencers that are not mounted to a firearm. Attempting
to clean or perform maintenance on a mounted silencer could lead
to property damage, personal injury and/or death.
DISASSEMBLY WITHOUT THE OPTIONAL BAFFLE TOOL
1. Always keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction.
2. Render the firearm safe by removing the magazine, completely unload-
ing the firearm and engaging the safety to the "SAFE" position. See the
firearm's owner's manual for detailed instructions.
3. Verify the silencer is at ambient temperature. If the silencer is hot, allow
it to cool.
CAUTION! Silencers can become extremely hot during firing. After
firing, allow the silencer to reach ambient temperature before attempt-
ing to handle the silencer. If handling is necessary prior to the si-
lencer cooling to ambient, it will be mandatory to use heat-resistant
gloves. Handling a hot silencer without heat-resistant gloves may
lead to skin burns and/or personal injury.
4. Grasp the silencer around its circumference and carefully unscrew it
from the host firearm’s muzzle threads. See Figure 2.
5. Use the included end cap spanner to unscrew and remove the front end
cap. See Figure 3.
6. Use a 7/16” diameter rod (wood, steel, plastic) that is at least 7 inches
long to push the baffle stack from the tube. If the baffles are difficult to
push out by hand, gently tap the end of the rod with a hammer. See Fig-
ure 4.
DISASSEMBLY WITH THE INCREDIBLY AWESOME BAFFLE TOOL
. Always keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction.
2. Render the firearm safe by removing the magazine, completely unload-
ing the firearm and engaging the safety to the "SAFE" position. See the
firearm's owner's manual for detailed instructions.
3. Verify the silencer is at ambient temperature. If the silencer is hot, allow
it to cool.
CAUTION! Silencers can become extremely hot during firing. After
firing, allow the silencer to reach ambient temperature before at-
tempting to handle the silencer. If handling is necessary prior to the
silencer cooling to ambient, it will be mandatory to use heat-resistant
gloves. Handling a hot silencer without heat-resistant gloves may
lead to skin burns and/or personal injury.
