D. Safety

The safety lever is the classic two position version of the model 70 R type, it allows

unloading from the safe position. The new design acts directly on the cocking piece.

The safety lever is located at the right rear of the bolt and engages by pulling the

serrated lever fully to the rear.

When you are ready to fire push the serrated lever fully to the forward position.

The safety mechanism is fitted into position before the rifle leaves the factory.

Every time you lift the bolt handle it automatically blocks the firing pin so the

rifle cannot be fired. If the bolt is closed the rifle will be ready to fire unless you

manually apply the safety.

Abrupt temperature changes cause condensation and moisture; therefore,

special care to interior metal parts is needed to prevent rusting.

Do not store the rifle overnight in the trunk of a car, even if it is inside a soft

gun case. Humid, cool conditions can cause condensation and rust in a short

period of time.

Insure that a light coating of oil like Shooters Choice FP-10 or equivalent, is

maintained on the bolt and receiver thus insuring a smooth fluid functioning

of these two major parts....

Remember that you will need one base for the front and one for the rear. The

screws and wrench are supplied with the bases.
