How to Operate the Safety
The safety mechanism is a round button lo-
cated behind the trigger. To put your auto-
loader ON SAFE hold your rifle in the normal
shooting position, pointed in a safe direction,
and push the safety button from left to right
as far as it will go. The safety is now ON
SAFE.
To move your safety to the OFF SAFE posi.
tion, push the safety button from right to left
as far as it will go. A red ring around the
safety button will be visible when the s<tfety
is in the OFF SAFE position.
Never disassemble the safety. It has been
correctly designed, fitted and tested. Any
mechanical device can fail, however, so never
rely on the safety to justify careless handling.
