Owner's Manual

22 EDUCATE AND SUPERVISE FIREARMS SAFETY TO ALL MEMBERS OF
YOUR FAMILY — ESPECIALLY TO CHILDREN AND NONSHOOTERS.
Closely supervise newcomers to the shooting sports. Encourage
enrollment in hunting/shooting safety courses.
23
NEVER DRINK ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES OR TAKE ANY TYPE OF DRUGS
BEFORE OR DURING SHOOTING.
Your vision and judgment could be
dangerously impaired, making your gun handling unsafe for you and
for others.
24
READ AND HEED ALL WARNINGS, in this instruction book, on
ammunition boxes and with all accessories that you install on
your firearm. It is your responsibility to secure the most up-to-date
information on the safe handling procedures of your Browning
firearm. Browning assumes no liability for incidents which occur
when unsafe or improper gun accessories or ammunition
combinations are used.
25
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE — AVOID UNAUTHORIZED SERVICING. Your
gun is a mechanical device which will not last forever, and as such,
is subject to wear and requires periodic inspection, adjustment, and
service. Browning firearms should be serviced by a Browning
Recommended Service Center or by Browning’s service facility in
Arnold, Missouri. Browning cannot assume any responsibility for
injuries suffered because of unauthorized servicing, alterations or
modifications of Browning firearms.
26
BROWNING RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE ON FIREARMS
THAT HAVE BEEN ALTERED, ADDED TO OR SUBSTANTIALLY CHANGED.
Removal of metal from barrel(s), or modifications of the firing
mechanism and/or operating parts may lead to Browning’s refusal
of service on such firearms. Browning will charge the owner for parts
and labor to return the firearm to original Browning specifications.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, ALTER THE TRIGGER OR
PARTS OF THE FIRING MECHANISM OF THIS OR ANY OTHER FIREARM.
FAILURE TO OBEY THIS WARNING MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH
TO YOURSELF OR OTHERS.
BE CAREFUL!
