LOAD CHECK In this manual you will frequently be instructed to "visually check to be certain your ARX 160 .22LR is unloaded." This should become second nature to you. You should: • Never assume that a firearm is unloaded (even a gun that is new and in its original packaging). • Never point or push a firearm toward yourself or another person. • Always open and visually check to see that the chamber is unloaded. • Engage the manual safety, lock the bolt in the open position and remove the magazine before handing the firearm to another person. • Never take or pull this firearm from another person unless the safety is engaged, the magazine is removed, the bolt is open, and the chamber has been visually checked to confirm it is unloaded. To visually check to be certain your ARX 160 .22LR is unloaded, carefully follow the steps below. WARNING: Keep your finger OFF THE TRIGGER with the safety engaged and the barrel pointed in a SAFE direction until you are on target and prepared to fire. Notice: To lock the bolt in the open position, an empty magazine must be seated in the magazine well. • Engage the manual safety by turning the manual selector to the Safe position (Fig. 1+3). • Remove the magazine by pushing the magazine release button (Fig. 6). • Retract the bolt handle to open the bolt (Fig. 7) (Releasing the bolt when a magazine is not in the firearm will automatically close the bolt). Always keep your finger away from the ejection port. • Check the chamber to be certain it is empty (Fig. 8). 17
