CARE AND MAINTENANCE
A. The gun may be cleaned and lubricated under normal conditions without
the need of any disassembly.
B. In special conditions, such as repairs, when disassembling is necessary, it
is recommended the gun be returned to the factory or sent to a competent
gunsmith or to the importer.
C. In order to keep a gun in perfect condition it must be kept clean and
covered with a slight film of good quality oil to prevent corrosion. This is
specially necessary after use.
D. For normal cleaning of handgun not used or kept in storage for some time,
it is necessary to rub it with a lightly oiled cloth. In the same way proceed
with the bore of the barrel. The excess oil must be removed, but a thin
protecting film should remain. Also the dust should be removed from all
crevices with a small, clean brush.
E. For cleaning after shooting, it is of special importance that all residues of
powder be removed from barrel and other adjacent areas subject to such
deposits, using an appropriate brush. If particles of lead are detected in
barrel they must be scrubbed with a brass brush, drenched with oil. Once
cleaned, lubrication should be done as above described.
F. Do not keep handguns in contact with materials that attract moisture or
possess a certain degree of acidity, or in environments with great variation of
temperature or of humidity. Avoid the use of holsters of cloth or of any other
material except natural leather appropriately cured.
G. If the weapon is to be stored for a long period of time, extreme care
should be taken with metal surfaces, in order to protect them against
corrosion.
