Have adequate ventilation at all times. Wash hands thoroughly after exposure. During firing, the operating handle (Fig. 3) travels rearward with considerable force and velocity. Do not place hands or other objects in its path.
the front of the shell stop located on the opposite side of the receiver from the ejection port. This will release one shell from the magazine tube under spring pressure. To release any remaining shells, depress the R.H. Shell Stop first- then the L.H. Shell Stop. Repeat this procedure until the magazine is completely empty (Fig. 12). Fig. 12 After unloading the magazine, pull the operating handle rearward until the bolt locks in the open position.

For maximum performance and continued satisfaction with your shotgun, periodic cleaning and lubrication are essential. Always be sure that the safety button is fully rearward in the "ON" (SAFE) position (Fig. 2) and that the gun is unloaded before cleaning your gun. Wear eye protection during cleaning. Normal use requires only that the mechanisms be free of excessive shooting residue. Very little lubrication other than a light oiling of external surfaces to prevent rust is needed.

Rotate the spring in a counterclockwise direction while sliding it onto the magazine tube until it rests firmly inside the corresponding cut in the end of the buffer. Slide the action bar/inertia weight assembly on the magazine tube until the front of the inertia weight is even with the end of the tube (Fig. 17). BOLT ASSEMBLY * FWD.
