23. CLEANING THE INVECTOR
™
CHOKE TUBE SYSTEM
1. Never use a bronze brush to clean your barrel unless choke tubes
are installed. Bristles could break off and lodge in the threads,
making installation and removal of the choke tubes difficult.
2. Regularly remove the choke tubes to clean and oil the threads inside
the barrel, as well as on the choke tube itself. This will protect the
threads from being damaged and also prevent a dirt build-up that
would cause the choke tube to become difficult to remove. Clean the
threads with solvent and a small, soft brush like a toothbrush. Wipe
completely clean and leave a thin film of clean oil on the threads, both
on the tube and in the barrel. The threads of the choke tube and the
internal threads of the barrel should be cleaned after each use and
before the installation of a tube.
3. Be careful when removing/installing a choke tube. Use only the
specially designed wrench. Damage can result to both the choke tube
and barrel when attempting to remove or install choke tubes.
4. Never fire your shotgun or run cleaning tools through the barrel of any
choke-tubed shotgun without having the choke tubes installed.
Notice! DO NOT TAKE YOUR FIREARM’S ACTION APART
BEYOND WHAT IS EXPLAINED IN THIS OWNER’S MANUAL.
THIS IS A SPECIALIZED, FINELY FITTED MECHANISM; ANY
ATTEMPT TO DISASSEMBLE THE INNER MECHANISM MAY
MAR IT BEYOND REPAIR. IT IS UNNECESSARY, AND MAY
DO DAMAGE TO THE INNER MECHANISM TO DISASSEMBLE
IT FOR ROUTINE CLEANING AND OILING. OF COURSE,
MISFORTUNES (SUCH AS DROPPING YOUR FIREARM IN
WATER) REQUIRE APPROPRIATE ATTENTION, AND IN SUCH
CIRCUMSTANCES WE RECOMMEND YOU IMMEDIATELY
TAKE YOUR FIREARM TO A QUALIFIED GUNSMITH. LAW
ENFORCEMENT AND MILITARY USERS SHOULD CONTACT
THEIR DEPARTMENT OR UNIT ARMORER.
