Dissassembly
Further
disassembly of your TUBB 2000 is
easily accomplished with a 3/16
allen wrench. After removing the
buttstock assembly as per
instructions, remove the pistol
grip screw (located on the inside
of the pistol grip) and pistol
grip. Next remove the screw
that's under the pistol grip
using the same wrench. Now remove
the screw forward of the magazine
housing. Pull the magazine
housing straight down and away
from the rifle. The trigger is
now fully accessible for
adjustment.
Reassemble
in reverse. There is no specific
torque requirement for the
magazine housing screws, but they
should be tightened
snugly.
[No
further disassembly other than
removing the buttstock assembly
as described earlier is necessary
under normal circumstances. The
only reason the magazine housing
needs to be separated from the
action is to gain access to the
Anschutz trigger. It is not
necessary to remove the magazine
housing to perform routine
maintenance.]
Maintenance
The
primary components on the TUBB
2000 are constructed of aluminum
alloys and stainless steel. These
materials are highly durable and
corrosion resistant. We do
recommend, however, cleaning away
any corrosive materials from the
stainless surfaces as it is not
impervious to pitting. A wipe
down after use with a soft,
lint-free cloth is usually all
that's required, although in
areas of high humidity or
prolonged exposure to corrosive
elements, use of a rust
inhibiting chemical treatment may
be warranted.
The barrel
of the TUBB 2000 should be
cleaned from the breech (chamber)
end. This reduces the likelihood
of damage to the delicate muzzle
crown area from inserting the
cleaning rod into the muzzle. A
custom rod guide is available.
This tool is inserted into the
chamber from the rear of the
action and will help prevent
cleaning rod contact with the
rifling.
There are
numerous barrel cleaning products
and methods. For specific
information and recommendations
on barrel cleaning, including
cleaning up after moly-coated
bullet use, there are several
articles on the Zediker
Publishing web site.
There is no
need to disassemble the bolt
unless it needs to be repaired.
Wipe off the exterior surfaces of
the bolt and relubricate the bolt
bearing surfaces and lug
recesses. Also clean the lug
recesses themselves. After
reassembly, we recommend wiping
down the portion of the bolt body
that is accessible through the
action loading port to reduce its
attraction to airborne
particulate.
Should the
bolt ever need to be recocked
when it is removed from the
rifle, insert the bolt's firing
pin fingers backward into their
channels in the action and twist
the bolt to recock the firing
pin.
Inspect
magazines prior to each use and
remove any debris or residues
from the follower and body.
Magazine disassembly is possible
by inserting a suitably sized
tool into the hole on the base
plate and sliding the plate to
the rear. The spring and follower
may then be removed through the
bottom of the magazine. Cleaning
and relubrication is recommended
after extended periods of use in
dusty conditions.
