CLEANING AND CARE
-
Open action. Clean barrel bores with cleaning
rod and soft, lightly oiled cloths. If necessary, scrub bores with nitro solvent.
Wipe clean and re-oil very lightly.
Should cleaning of parts of forearm iron assembly be required, remove
assembly from forearm. Wash assembly in solvent, dry and re-oil sparingly.
When using gun in below freezing weather, remove excess oil. Ifa lubricant
is needed use dry graphite or similar non-congealing lubricant, lightly
applied. After handling gun, oil wipe all steel parts. Invisible "prints" of
moisture can cause rust unless removed. After using in wet weather, always
dry and wipe steel parts with oil. Abrupt changes in temperature can also
cause wetness due to condensation. Using a quality gun grease, lightly
lubricate radius on front of frame where it matches forearm iron, pivot pins
and adjacent inside walls of frame where contact, is made with barrel
assembly. Keep all other bearing points and polished breech surfaces clean
and lightly oiled. Clean top surfaces of frame. Accumulation of dirt or
residue in this area may restrict complete closing of action and prevent gun
from firing.
NOTE
-
This gun, like all over and under shotguns, is a precision firearm
manufactured to close tolerances. With proper handling it will assemble and
function correctly. Never use excessive force in opening or closing barrels
to the action. Proper closing can be accomplished by holding the forearm
with one hand raising the stock assembly with the other hand until it locks.
Any disassembly of the over and under shotgun described in the Gun
Owner's Manual in not recommended unless necessary for repair or
replacement of worn or damaged parts. Select a qualified gunsmith or
return gun to store. When gun is new, it may be noted that the lock lever
may not return to a precise center position when action is closed. This
assures that provision has been made for gradual adjustment of locking
surfaces.
