OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Read and understand this entire manual and its safety warnings before
handling the shotgun.
MECHANICAL SAFETY
The safety button and barrel selector switch is located on the top rear portion of
the receiver (Fig. 1) and must be manually moved to the desired position by the
shooter. The safety button’s position affects both barrels. The barrel selector
switch requires the user to move the safety button to the “ON” (SAFE) position
before selecting which barrel should be fired first.
To engage the safety button to the “ON” (SAFE) position, the safety button
must be moved fully rearward. The safety button will now expose an “S” located
just in front of the safety button. The “S” is a training aid used only to show the
direction of the “ON” (SAFE) position and should not be used as an indicator that
the safety is “on” or “off.” Moving the safety button forward toward the muzzle of
the shotgun will place the safety button in the “OFF” (FIRE) position.
Remember, a firearm’s manual safety is a mechanical device which can
never replace safe firearm handling practices.
Never rely on any mechanical mechanism or safety device to prevent the
dangers of careless handling or pointing a firearm in an unsafe direction.
