E) Any powder fouling on the firing wall, barrel, etc. can be easily cleaned with a
brush and powder solvent.
F) All external surfaces should be wiped down with a light coat of rust preventative.
Avoid using too much oil as powder, dust or other foreign material may get
trapped in the oil. This could lead to congealed deposits which may interfere
with the safe and reliable operation of the shotgun.
G) USE CAUTION while using solvents in gun bore cleaning. Prolonged or
excess contact with solvents can damage the gun’s bluing and finish. Be sure to
wipe away all excess solvent and then lubricate with oil.
H) A gun should be cleaned after firing. In addition, external parts should be
wiped with an oiled cloth after handling. A light oil is ordinarily all that is necessary
in cleaning if the gun has not been fired or fired very little. If a gun is used
frequently, it must be cleaned after each firing and regularly serviced by a
professional gunsmith. If the gun has been stored, remove all excess oil and/or
grease before firing. Always check to be sure that no cleaning patch or other
obstruction remains in the bore or chambers before firing.
DANGER – AMMUNITION WARNING
Firearms may be damaged and serious personal injury or death to the
shooter or bystanders may result from any condition which contributes to
the generation of excessive pressure or uncontrolled release of gas within
the firearm. Such adverse conditions can be caused by bore or chamber
obstruction, propellant powder overloads or by defective, incorrect or
improperly loaded and assembled cartridge components. Even the strongest
firearm can be blown up as a result of excessive pressure. It is extremely
dangerous to use a cartridge whose pressure is greater than that developed
by cartridges loaded to industry standards.
AMMUNITION (CARTRIDGES) NOTICE
We specifically disclaim responsibility for any damage, personal injury or death
occurring in connection with or as the result of the use of EAA Corp. shotguns
with faulty, nonstandard, remanufactured, hand-loaded or reloaded ammunition,
used cartridges or cartridges other than factory cartridges for which the firearm
was originally chambered.
LUBRICATION WARNING
Firing a shotgun with oil, grease or any other material even partially obstructing
the bore may result in damage to the shotgun and personal injury to the shooter
and those nearby. Do not spray or apply lubricants directly on ammunition. If
the powder charge of a cartridge is affected by the lubricant, it may not fully
ignite yet the energy from the primer and/or powder may be sufficient to push
the projectile or wad into the bore where it may become lodged. Firing a
subsequent cartridge into the obstructed bore will damage the shotgun and
may cause personal injury to the shooter and those nearby. Use lubricants
properly. You are responsible for the proper care and maintenance of your
firearm and ammunition.
