Notice! DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE TRIGGER GROUP
BEYOND THIS POINT.
24.2. REINSTALLATION OF THE TRIGGER GROUP
1. Make sure the bolt is in the forward position.
2. Insert the trigger group into the receiver. Align the holes in the trigger
group with the holes on each side of the receiver.
3. Reinsert the trigger group pins and gently tap them into place
with a plastic or wooden mallet, again using caution not to scratch
the receiver.
24.3. REMOVING THE BOLT ASSEMBLY
1. Remove the barrel, gas piston, piston sleeve and piston sleeve spring
as explained previously. The trigger group should also be removed but it
is not necessary.
2. Place the bolt in the forward position by holding the operating handle
and pressing the carrier release button.
Notice! NEVER ALLOW THE ACTION TO SLAM CLOSED BY
PRESSING THE CARRIER RELEASE BUTTON WITHOUT THE
BARREL INSTALLED. IF THE BOLT IS RELEASED FORWARD
WITH THE BARREL REMOVED, THE OPERATING HANDLE
WILL HIT THE RECEIVER AND CAUSE DAMAGE.
3. Remove the operating handle by pulling it outward (Figure 25,
page 46).
4. Slide the bolt assembly forward and out of the receiver (Figure 26,
page 46).
5. The bolt and bolt slide can be separated for cleaning (Figure 27,
page 46). Clean the bolt and receiver cavity as necessary.

4. Use a punch or similar object to push inward on the trigger group pins,
taking care not to scratch the receiver (Figure 22, page 44). Trigger
group pins may be removed from either side of the receiver. Push the
trigger group pins through the receiver. Pull on them from the opposite
side to remove them (Figure 23, page 44).
5. Grasp the trigger guard and pull it up and out of the receiver
(Figure 24, page 44).
6. Perform any cleaning of the
parts and receiver cavity as
necessary. We suggest cleaning
the trigger group with a quality
aerosol gun solvent. Allow it to
dry and then very lightly oil the
moving parts.
