The Lightning Trigger and bolt can be removed if the action becomes

excessively dirty or wet. If this occurs, disassemble the action for a

complete cleaning as explained in the following sections. The trigger

group and bolt assembly of your Maxus shotgun are designed to be

removed in the field, without special tools.

Disassembly of the action involves the removal of the bolt assembly

and the trigger group. Disassembly beyond this point should only be

performed by a qualified gunsmith.

REMOVING THE TRIGGER GROUP

1 Place the bolt in the forward position by holding the operating

handle and depressing the bolt release button.

NOTICE! never Allow the Action to slAm closed by pressing the

bolt releAse button without the bArrel instAlled. if the bolt is

releAsed forwArd with the bArrel removed, the operAting

hAndle will strike the receiver And cAuse dAmAge.

2 Use a punch or similar object to push inward on the trigger guard

pins, taking care not to scratch the receiver (Figure 27, page 41).

Trigger group pins may be removed from either side of the

receiver. Push the trigger group pins through the receiver. Pull on

them from the opposite side to remove them.

3 Grasp the trigger guard and pull it up and out of the receiver

(Figure 28, page 41).

4 Perform any cleaning of the parts and receiver cavity as necessary.

We suggest cleaning the trigger group with a quality aerosol gun

solvent. Allow it to dry and then very lightly oil the moving parts.

NOTICE! do not disAssemble the trigger group beyond

this point.

REINSTALLATION OF THE TRIGGER GROUP

1 Make sure the bolt is in the forward position.

2 Insert the trigger group into the receiver. Align the holes in the

trigger group with the holes on each side of the receiver.

3 Reinsert the trigger guard pins and gently tap them into place

with a plastic or wooden mallet, again using caution not to

scratch the receiver.
