Remember, the broad, polished, finely fitted surfaces of the receiver an
forearm mechanisms (the ejector slide, the hinge pin, and on each side
of the barrel receiver walls), must always have a thin film of oil. Use a
quality oil like Browning Oil for this purpose.
8 Inspect the barrel and chamber
TO BE CERTAIN NO PATCHES HAVE
INADVERTENTLY BEEN LEFT IN THEM.
Remove any that remain.
9 Wipe all wood surfaces with Browning Oil or a quality furniture
polish, but not both.
OTHER CLEANING SUGGESTIONS —
• Never pour large quantities of oil into the receiver or other parts. It
can drain down to the wood and soften it — and cause permanent
damage and loosening of the stock.
• It is very important that the chamber of your shotgun be cleaned
thoroughly and promptly after shooting plastic shotshells.
DO NOT
LEAVE A DISCHARGED (EMPTY) SHELL IN THE CHAMBER FOR ANY
LENGTH OF TIME.
The chemical composition of many plastic shells
contains moisture which can “sweat” out of the shell and onto the
chamber surface, and possibly cause corrosion and rust.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO TAKE YOUR BT-99 APART FURTHER THAN EXPLAINED
IN THIS MANUAL.
This is a specialized, finely fitted mechanism. You may permanently
mar it by attempting to disassemble the inner mechanism assemblies.
If further disassembly for service or cleaning is required, take your
gun to a Browning Recommended Service Center, the Browning
Service Facility in Arnold, Missouri, or a competent gunsmith as
explained under “Service or Repair.”
