Manual

To position the hammer in the half-cock
position, pull the hammer rearward slowly with
your thumb while keeping your fingers out of
the trigger area until you hear the first audible
“click”. Release the hammer and the hammer
is in the half-cock position.
Locate the plunger pin and the lever hinge pin
on the right side of the frame (Fig. 3). While
pushing in on the plunger pin, rotate forward
the arm of the lever hinge pin past the plunger
pin and approximately 180 degrees from its
original position (Fig. 4). Turn the rifle upside
down. Remove the lever hinge pin by rotating
a few degrees forward and rearward while
pulling outward. Once the lever hinge pin has
been removed, slide the lever and breech
block assembly up and out of the frame
(Fig.5).
Disassembly has been completed and further
disassembly in not recommended or necessary
for regular maintenance. Further disassembly
should only be attempted by a competent
gunsmith.
To assemble, reverse the above procedure.
