ASSEMBLY OF PT111, PT111Ti, PT132, PT138, PT14O, PT145

AND PT145Ti

In order to reassemble the pistol, proceed by reversing the disassembling

procedure while observing the following details:

1. Replace the barrel in the slide

pushing it to the rearward position.

Mount the spring on the guide rod.

Insert the spring/guide rod sub-

assembly into the slide over the barrel,

compressing the spring slightly to get it

into posiiton. The SLIDE should be

mounted on the frame and pulled fully

to the rear and the SLIDE CATCH must

be moved upward to hold the SLIDE to

the rear.

2. When reinstalling the SLIDE

DISASSEMBLY LATCH, it is inserted

into the frame with the lever pointing

rearward and the horizontal round

portion of the latch must engage the

mating surface on the bottom of the

BARREL.

Insert the take-down pin once the slide

is in position to line up the barrel with

the hole, and gently push in. A click will

indicate the pin is secured in place.

3. The SLIDE CATCH then can be

depressed which allows the SLIDE to

go forward.

4. You should cycle the SLIDE several

times, with no magazine inserted and

no rounds in the chamber, to insure

that the barrel/slide/frame relationship

is correct.

ALWAYS KEEP THE MUZZLE POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION.

The slide may stick on the frame before going fully

to the rear, or the barrel may ride with it to the rear.

Begin again and

press down with the

finger onto that rear

portion of the barrel

accessible through the ejection port.

When the barrel depresses and locks to the

frame, continue moving the slide fully to the

rear and engage the slide catch lever.
