Assuming you know how to disassemble a firearm or have someone you know helping you, to disassemble for cleaning-
* Remove the screw that holds the trigger guard on and pull the trigger guard off. It will stay as a unit.
* Remove the screw that holds the forearm on. If someone has mounted sling swivels, it may look like a sling swivel, but unscrewing it will let you take the forearm off.
* Carefully remove the action spring by compressing it slightly and lifting the end clear of the retainer.
* Remove the action bars by lifting them off of the carrier and sliding them out.
* Remove the bolt handle by depressing the retainer and sliding the handle out of the notch. At this point, the bolt should lift out of the action.
* Clean thoroughly. Remember to use a cleaning rod with a bore guide when cleaning the barrel. You must clean from the muzzle. Scrub the action out as needed. Scrub the trigger group, but do not disassemble it.
* To reassemble, reverse the disassembly process. There are no "tricks" to it.
If you think you may have problems with the assembly, take pictures as you go.
