Instruction Manual
MAINTENANCE
1. Be sure that your gun is unloaded before
attempting to clean.
2. The gun owner is responsible for periodic
inspection and proper maintenance by a
qualified gunsmith to ensure that this firearm
remains in proper adjustment and that worn
parts are replaced.
3. REMEMBER — Rust is neglect — Make
sure all exposed metal surfaces are coated
with a film of oil. After being subjected to
damp weather, thoroughly wipe the bore and
wipe off the metal surfaces. Then apply
a
new
film of oil. If exposed to a soaking rain, snow
or salt spray a more thorough cleaning and
oiling may be necessary, requiring removal
of the trigger guard and breech bolt
assemblies.
4. Between seasons, apply a coat of grease
to the bore and metal parts and store in a dry
place. Do not plug the barrel, or store in a
case made of fabric or material which will
absorb the lubricant from the gun.
5. Repair parts are available through your
local authorized Winchester Dealer — or
authorized service center. Please be sure to
include the Model number and Serial num-
ber of your gun when ordering parts.
