2. Remove the circlip (1279) from the trigger fulcrum pin (2412), then remove
the fulcrum pin and take out trigger assembly (3428). Pull out trigger adjusting
spring (2289) located in the underside of the body end plug (3338).
3. Hold the gun upright with the body end plug resting on a table or workbench,
press firmly down against the residual spring pressure (this will be about 80lbs.
(35kg) on a new gun), then tap out the body end plug pin (2365). Ease the pressure
off, allowing the gun to rise against the spring pressure. The end plug complete
with mainspring and damper can now be withdrawn.
4. Knock the damper (2834) out of the mainspring. If the mainspring shows
signs of buckling, a new one, complete with new damper should be fitted.
Lubricate the mainspring and damper with WEBLUBE, then insert the
damper and push firmly home until its flange is flush with the end of the
mainspring.
Reassemble in the reverse order.
The preceeding paragraphs 1 - 4 relate to the necessary dismantling when
replacing the mainspring and damper only. Should it become necessary to
dismantle the rifle to carry out a major overhaul or to replace worn components,
adopt the procedure stated in the following paragraphs.

end of the cocking key out of the hole (fig. 8). Remove the barrel housing spacer
(2649) and disc washer (2656) from their recesses in the barrel housing.
