Installation Instructions
Ensure the firearm is unloaded and pointed in a safe direction. Remove
the upper receiver from the lower. If there is a flash suppressor and
front sight, these need to be removed next. Remove the old handguards.
Using the barrel nut wrench remove the existing barrel nut. Place the
barrel nut collar over the threaded portion that the barrel nut was
removed from. Install the new barrel nut, after making sure the gas tube
hole is correctly aligned, tighten the barrel nut down and install the
new handguard using the included Allen head cap screws.
