OPERATOR’S MANUAL Please read and understand this manual before loading, firing or servicing your rifle. You accept full responsibility for the use or misuse of this rifle or any other rifle. It is important that you read and fully understand all the safety procedures and the operation of this rifle, especially before firing this rifle. It is of the utmost importance that you are a responsible rifle owner. Careless rifle use may result in serious harm or death.
SAFETY NEVER transport a loaded rifle. Never use the half-cock as a safety. The only safe way to carry your rifle loaded is with the chamber empty. Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction. Never point the rifle at anyone, even if it is unloaded. Do not drop or roughly handle your rifle. Do not chamber a round until you are ready to fire at the intended target. Cock the hammer only when ready to shoot.
If your rifle fails to fire after you have pulled the trigger, keep the rifle pointed at the target for at least thirty seconds. After 30 seconds if nothing happens, try pulling back the hammer all the way and pull the trigger. If the rifle still fails to fire after 30 seconds, eject the round. Always make sure anyone around you is at least 10 feet to the rear of you while firing, loading and unloading.
Any after market accessories or alterations may result in rendering your rifle less safe. It is absolutely forbidden to cancel or alter the serial number of the rifle. If your rifle malfunctions in any way, do not use it. Contact the Importer or Armi Sport for servicing information and directions for service. If a shot sounds weak or unusual, do not fire another round through your rifle. Unload the rifle and check the bore for obstructions.
FLAT-NOSED BULLETS are the only type to be used in your Spencer, use of pointed bullets is dangerous and could result in accidental primer ignition. Do not use ammunition that is questionable in identity or with an absent or unclear stamp. Use only commercially loaded ammunition in the proper caliber for your rifle. Death or serious injury may result from excessive pressure. The rifle may sustain damage.
Remember use only FLAT NOSED BULLETS. You must hold the rifle at an angle so that the cartridges slide down the magazine instead of dropping in. After all rounds have been placed into the magazine well. insert the magazine tube into the magazine well until the magazine tube base is even and 90 degrees to the right of the butt plate. Then rotate the magazine tube base 90 degrees to your left. UNLOADING Point the rifle in a safe direction with the muzzle pointing Up. Lower the lever to the full extent.
FIRING Place your protective eyewear and ear protection on. Point the rifle in a safe direction. Move the lever to its down most position. The breechblock will then pick up a round from magazine well. Bring the lever back up to the up most position. The round is now chambered. Put your rifle to your shoulder and aim at the intended target. Pull the hammer back two clicks. Place finger on the trigger and squeeze the trigger. After the shot is fired, pull the lever down.
Most failures to feed are due to improperly loaded, damaged, or dirty ammunition, or improper rifle handling. If a jam or failure to feed occurs, point the rifle in a safe direction and place the hammer at the half-cock position. Point the rifle barrel towards the sky and remove the magazine tube. Allow all the rounds in the magazine well to slide out of the rifle.
Disassembly of the breechblock: Remove the block to lever screw located on the right, and separate the upper and lower breech block assemblies. The lever will slide out of the lower breech block right to left. Removal of the transfer bar is done by unscrewing the transfer bar screw located on the right side of the upper breech block. The transfer bar is removed by sliding it to the right. Disassembly of the lock plate mechanism is normally not necessary and should only be done by a competent gunsmith.
