INSPECTING & INITIAL ASSEMBLY CONT’D
INSTALLING THE BOLT
Grasp the bolt by its handle
and slip the bolt head forward
into the receiver as shown
(Figure 7).
The bolt handle is
nearly touching the stock
upon initial insertion.
Keeping the bolt body paral-
lel with the rifle’s barrel
(Don’t let the rear of the bolt
tip down), move the bolt for-
ward about one quarter inch
to align the sear with the
groove in the bottom of the
bolt (you will hear a “click”
when the bolt is properly
aligned.
Slowly rotate the bolt handle
up as shown in Figure 8 (a
little wiggling may be
required to align the parts),
and continue to push the bolt
fully forward into the receiver.
Turn the bolt handle down to
close the bolt (Figure 9).
Lock the bolt closed by moving
the safety button to the full
back “Safe” position (Figure
10).
