JARD Marlin XT Replacement Trigger
Installation

2. Remove the two mounting screws attaching the trigger housing to the receiver.
3. Remove factory trigger assembly and install the JARD trigger assembly.
4. Install mounting screws and stock.
Trigger Adjustment
Read directions completely before beginning procedure.
Your JARD trigger system comes adjusted from the factory and should be a replacement only procedure. However should
decide to modify the factory settings, below are some guidelines.
1. Verify the gun is unloaded and remove the stock from the receiver.
2. To adjust the sear engagement screw (14), turn the screw counterclockwise several turns and close the bolt leaving
the action cocked. Turn the safety selector to the fire position. Slowly turn the screw clockwise until the sear is
released. Turn the screw slightly back counterclockwise until safe sear engagement is achieved (approx. ¼ turn)
(Note: There must be sufficient sear engagement to allow reliable safety function.)
3. Check functioning of the trigger by slamming the bolt (closing it sharply) several times. If the sear is not released
when closing sharply, it may be possible to adjust for less sear engagement. However, if the sear is released, more
sear engagement and/or pull weight increase is needed.
4. Once the sear engagement has been successfully set, the safety can be adjusted. With the action cocked, turn the
safety selector to the safe position. If the safety cannot be engaged, the safety screw (5) must be turned to allow the
safety plate to move back. Once the safety is on the on position, turn the safety screw until it engages the safety
plate. With the safety on and the action cocked, there should be no movement in the trigger and the selector should
move back and forth freely.
5. The final adjustment can be made to fine tune your trigger pull. The spring tension screw (15) can be turned in or
out to increase or decrease trigger pull.
6. Install the receiver into the stock and preform function and safety checks.
