GENERAL CONSTRUCTION AND METHOD OF OPERATION
Your MAK-90 is a semi-automatic or self-loading, magazine fed repeating rifle. Gas pressure generated by the fired cartridge dge is utilized to drive the rifle’s gas piston system to automatically effect spent case ejection, recocking of hammer/trigger mechanism, and the loading of a fresh round from the magazine to the barrel chamber. A single shot will be fired with each pull of the trigger, until both magazine and chamber are empty. The trigger must be fully released forward before it can be pulled again to fire a succeeding shot.

Solid steel construction is used throughout for the operating components, with the exception of the stocks, which are either wood or high strength. heat resistant synthetic material.

WARNING: Before firing this rifle, be absolutely certain there are no obstructions in the barrel bore and chamber, such as grease, mud, snow or cleaning patches, etc. Also check your ammunition to determine that it is in good condition and that it is the correct caliber and specific type of commercial manufacture intended for this gun. The proper caliber description (stamped on the left receiver wall of the rifle) is 7.62x 39mm centerfire.

To set to “fire” position, the lever must be pushed downward with the thumb until it clicks to a stop. Again, a letter indicating that the safety is in “fire” mode will be visible just forward of the lever tip, 111.111. The trigger may now be pulled to fire the rifle as described previously.

CAUTION: Unless you are actually firing or plan to do so immediately, the safety lever should be kept in “on safe” position regardless of whether the rifle is loaded or unloaded.

LOADING THE RIFLE
When inserting a loaded magazine in the rifle, you must first always observe these safety precautions.

1. Be sure the rifle muzzle is pointed forward and down towards the ground in a safe direction ahead of you.

2 Push the safety lever to the upper, or “on safe’ position. Grasp the rifle by the forearm with either hand. With the other hand, hold the magazine toward the bottom with the feed lips end above the top of the hand. Now insert the magazine in the well or port in the bottom of the receiver forward of the trigger guard, top front corner first, ltl.vl to engage the magazine forward retaining bar and then push backward
and up until the magazine catch locks the magazine in place.

To fire the rifle, a round must first be introduced from the magazine to the barrel chamber. With a loaded magazine in place and muzzle pointed in a safe direction, push the safety lever down to the “fire” position. Hold the rifle forearm firmly with the off hand and grasp the bolt handle with the firing hand. Pull the handle smartly, fully to the rear until it stops. then completely release it. allowing it to spring forward and chamber a round.

WARNING: At this point the rifle is fully loaded and armed with the safety off to ‘fire’ position. A pull on the trigger will fire and instantly reload the gun. If you do not intend to fire immediately place the safety lever to “safe” position.

DISASSEMBLING THE RIFLE (Ills, V, VI, VIII, IX, X)
CAUTION: Check to be certain the rifle is fully unloaded as described previously and safety is set to “safe” position.

Hold the butt stock firmly in one hand. With the thumb of the other hand, push the end of the recoil guide and spring unit projecting from the rear of the receiver cover fully forward, and lift the receiver cover upward and back from its rear end. (lIly)

With the receiver cover off, grip the end of the recoil guide and spring unit, and push it forward until it clears its grooved seat in the receiver. Lift it up slightly and pull it straight back to remove the unit from the bolt carrier/gas piston unit (lll.VI)

Place the safety to the “fire” position. Grasp the bolt handle and draw it back firmly to the full rear of its travel. Lift the bolt carrier/gas piston unit slightly from the receiver and draw it to the rear and out of the gas tube and handguard assembly. (Ill.VlI).

To remove the bolt from the bolt carrier, push the bolt to its rear position in the carrier and rotate it a quarter turn clockwise (right). Then push the bolt forward and out of its bore in the carrier. (IIl.VIII).

The gas tube and handguard assembly may be removed by rotating the gas tube latch lever up (with the provided disassembly tool) and pulling rear of handguard up and back until the assembly s free. (IIl.lX).

This complete what is commonly known as field stripping. No further disassembly is recommended except by a qualified gunsmith. lll.X).

REASSEMBLY OF RIFLE

Reassembly follows in the exact reverse sequence of disassembly steps. To insure trouble-free reassembly, we recommend that you pay close attention to the exact location and position of parts during disassembly, for ease of reassembly.

CLEANING
With the rifle in field stripped condition:

Using a suitable cleaning rod and brush, saturate the brush with a commercial gun solvent and run the brush from the muzzle end through the length of the bore and out the chamber end;repeat several times. Follow this same procedure but substitute solvent-soaked cloth cleaning patches for the brush. When the bore and chamber are clean, run dry cloth patches through to remove the solvent film.

If you do not intend to fire the rifle soon, run a patch with a small amount of gun oil through the bore to preserve it.

The stripped action parts should be wiped clean of any residue with solvent and dried. These parts should then receive a light film of gun oil to protect and lubricate them. The gas piston and gas tube, however, should not be oiled; just cleaned and dried. Ensure the bore is cleaned before firing

6. In case of failure to fire, always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and hold the firearm in this position for at least 30 seconds.
7. Store your rifle and ammunition separately. Store your firearm out of sight of visitors and children.
8. Never pull the trigger unless shooting at a target or you have checked to make certain the firearm was unloaded.
9. For eye and ear protection we recommend you always wear shooting glasses and hearing protection when shooting.
10. Do not shoot at a hard surface or at water, A bullet may ricochet and travel in unpredictable directions with considerable velocity causing injury and damage to property.
11. Be absolutely certain of your target and the backstop before proceeding to fire. Take the time to check if you are uncertain of what is bhind

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROPER OPERA TION OF THE BWK-92 SPORTER
AND OPERATION OF THE SAFETY
The safety lever on the BWK-92 is located on the right side of thE receiver. It has two positions: “safe” in the top position a designated by an “s” (See FIG.1), and “fire”in the lower position as designated by an “f” (See FIG.2). When set in the top ‘safe’ position, the safety blocks the trigger from being pulled back far enough to release the hammer and discharge the rifle. At the same time, it obstructs the backward travel of the bolt carrier so, that a round cannot be chambered when the safety lever is on “safe”. It is highly recommended the rifle be placed on “safe” whenever it is being transported or otherwise not in use since the lever doubles as a dust cover for preventing foreign objects from entering (and possibly damaging) the rifle’s mechanism. FIG.1

SAFETY LEVER.

The safety of the BWK-92 incorporates a positive “click” sound whenever the safety bar is fully engaged in either the “SAFE” or the
