2.1.6 gas Valve Position

The gas volume required for the function of the Sig556xi rifle can be controlled by the gas valve. The gas valve has three
positions:

a. Position 1 (rib of gas valve in vertical position).
under normal conditions, the gas valve should remain in Position 1. This will give the best all-around performance and
function.


b. Position 2 (rib of gas valve in the slanted position).

c. Position 3 (Suppressed Setting)

POSiTiON 1 - RiB VeRTiCAl

POSiTiON 2 - RiB SlANTeD
