PRESSURE, DAMAGE THE FIREARM AND CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY. If the blockage can be removed with a cleaning rod, clean any un-
burned powder grains from the bore, chambers & mechanism before resuming
shooting. If the blockage can not be dislodged by tapping it with a cleaning rod,
take the firearm to a gunsmith.
W A R N I N G (EYE AND EAR PROTECTION)
When shooting, full eye and ear protection is mandatory at all times. Shooters
and spectators must wear shooting glasses and hearing protection to prevent
eye injury and hearing loss. Vision and hearing impairment can occur with only
one moment of non-protection.
W A R N I N G (Mechanical Malfunctions)
STOP SHOOTING IMMEDIATELY AND UNLOAD YOUR FIREARM if your
firearm develops: a mechanical malfunction; binding or stoppage; spitting pow-
der/gas; a cartridge primer is punctured; a cartridge case is bulged or ruptured;
or the sound on firing does not sound quite right. Do NOT try one more shot but
unload your firearm and take it and the ammunition to a qualified gunsmith or
send it back to EAA Corp. for examination. Do not assume that the Bolt Action
Rifle is empty merely because you checked the chamber. You must also check
the bore for any fired cartridge jammed inside the barrel.
BASIC PARTS OF YOUR RIFLE
Safety : Your rifle has a lever safety, located be-
hind the bolt handle. Moving the lever forward locks
the trigger and bolt (red dot is covered). Moving the
button rearward (disengaged) unlocks the trigger
and bolt (red dot showing). To load and unload the
rifle move the safety lever to the fire position (disen-
gaged) so as to release the bolt for movement.

TRIGGER DURING ALL SAFETY MOVE-

Do not touch the trigger while moving the safety lever. When operating the
safety lever, make sure you push it to the full extent of its travel in the desired
direction, either fully “on” – engaged or fully “off” – disengaged. Half-safe or
partially-safe is UNSAFE.
