cauTion: The rifle should noT be operated in Position #2 (adverse) for an extended period of time. as soon as normal
function returns, the gas valve should be rotated to Position #1 (normal). continued operation with the gas valve in
Position #2 (adverse) will increase recoil and place unnecessary stress on the rifle. Having to operate the rifle in Position
#2 (adverse) is an indicator that the rifle needs maintenance.
