Manual

3. The factory-supplied screwdriver should be used when adjusting this screw,
which is detented so that it will “click” when turned. This helps prevent
inadvertent movement of the screw.
4. Turning this weight of pull adjustment screw clockwise will increase the
weight of trigger pull necessary to fire the shotgun. Turning the same screw
counter
clockwise will decrease the weight of trigger pull necessary to fire
the shotgun. (See Illustration below)
5. The weight of trigger pull adjustment should be made in small steps. Turn
the adjustment screw only 3 or 4 “clicks” at a time, and then check the
adjustment by dry-firing the unloaded shotgun from your normal shooting
stance before proceeding further. Once the weight of trigger pull suits your
needs and preferences within the limits of adjustment – stop!
6. Please note that the weight of pull adjustment screw has a definite lower
limit designed into it. If this screw has been turned counter clockwise to its
furthest limit and cannot be turned any further, the weight of trigger pull is
at its lowest intended adjustment. DO NOT A
TTEMPT TO FURTHER
DECREASE THE WEIGHT OF THE TRIGGER PULL BEYOND THIS POINT
BY ANY MEANS – YOU MAY CREATE A DANGEROUS CONDITION!
7. Once you have determined what weight of trigger pull is satisfactory for your
target shooting needs, you should perform the following test of your
adjustment: Open the shotgun to be certain the shotgun is unloaded, point it
in a safe direction, and vigorously snap the shotgun closed. The hammer
should remain cocked and the gun should be able to be dry-fired by a pull on
the trigger. Repeat this test 3 - 4 times. If the hammer does not remain
cocked, and you are unable to “dry fire” the shotgun, DO NOT LOAD OR
FIRE THE GUN. Contact the Newport Product Service Department at (603)
