REMOVE EJECTOR SPRING CLIP
AND EJECTOR
6.
Push the ejector spring clip out of the
clip groove far enough to grasp it
with your fingers. Note the alignment
of the flats in the barrel with the slots
in the ejector. Pull the ejector clip off
the ejector and slide the ejector off
the end of the barrel.
7.
Pull the buffer out of the muzzle
bushing, using pliers if necessary but
being sure not to damage the muzzle
bushing body during buffer removal.
8.
Inspect all parts for wear or damage
and clean or replace as required.
Use detergent oil and cleaning brush.
Wipe parts dry before reassembly.
WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES WHEN
CLEANING TOOL PARTS.
9.
Check the piston tip for mushroom-
ing or other deformities, and grind
flat. The tip of the piston must be 90°
to the shank and grinding should only
be done by qualified personnel. The
overall minimum length of the piston
must not be less than 5 3/4”. When
less than this length, the piston must
be replaced to avoid tool damage.
Reassemble the tool in the reverse
order of disassembly.
Several tips for reassembly: Align
the barrel slot with the pawl open-
ing in the receiver and slide the
barrel assembly back into the
receiver.
Use anti-seize compound on the
muzzle bushing threads to reduce
powder residue buildup and permit
easier removal.
ALWAYS PERFORM THE DAILY
FUNCTION TEST BEFORE
USING THE TOOL AFTER
CLEANING OR SERVICING.
