Unloading
(This operation must be carried out with the gun
safety catch engaged - see “Gun safety catch”
and the barrel pointed in safe direction)
To unload the shotgun, proceed as follows:
1) Engage the safety catch; rest the stock on
your hip and pull the cocking lever to open
the bolt (fig. 23): the cartridge in the chamber
is extracted and ejected from the gun.
2) Gently release the cocking lever to close the
breech block (fig. 16).
3) Reverse the gun, and, thrusting the carrier
down, press sideways the carrier latch frontal
part with your index finger (fig. 24).
4) The cartridges will be released one by one
into your hand (fig. 25); the carrier latch must
be pressed for each released cartridge.
WARNING: gun can be unloaded by repeating
the operation, as described under point B of the
chapter: ”Cartridge replacement”.
Troubleshooting
Before starting any operation on your shotgun,
make sure that the chamber and the magazine
are unloaded!
(Carefully read the instructions on gun loading
and unloading).
The gun fails to fire
1) Check the safety catch: if it is engaged, push
the button to the fire position.
2) Check that there is a cartridge in the barrel.
If necessary, insert a cartridge following the
loading instructions (page 56).
3) Check the firing mechanism. If necessary,
clean and lubricate it.
Fore-end cap
Especially after the first rounds, check that the
fore-end cap is firmly tightened, to keep the
barrel firmly against to the receiver.
