General Safety Guidelines
- Ensure the gauge is used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
- Always check for any visible damage or wear before using the gauge.
- Store the gauge in a safe and secure location, away from children and unauthorized users.

- Report any unsafe products or accidents to the appropriate authorities.

Specific Safety Precautions for Use
- Avoid Mixing Brands: Do not mix different brands of headspace gauges. Each manufacturer has specific tolerances, and mixing may lead to inaccurate readings.
- Use Compatible Gauges: If you have a Forster .308 GO gauge, use it with a Forster .308 NO GO gauge. Stick to one brand within a particular caliber to eliminate variables.
- Check for Proper Fit: Ensure the gauge fits properly in the firearm's chamber before use.
- Inspect Before Use: Always inspect the gauge for any signs of damage or wear before using it.
- Follow Manufacturer Guidelines: Adhere strictly to the manufacturer’s specifications for safe use.
Instructions for Installation and Usage
Preparation:
- Ensure your work area is clean and welllit.
- Gather all necessary tools and equipment before starting.
Using the No Go Gauge:
- Insert the No Go gauge into the chamber of the firearm.
- Gently close the bolt. If the bolt does not close completely, the chamber is within safe limits.
- If the bolt closes fully, this indicates excessive chamber depth, which may render the firearm unsafe to use. Do not attempt to fire the firearm if this occurs.
Maintenance:
- After use, clean the gauge to remove any debris or residue.
- Store the gauge in its protective case to prevent damage.
- Regularly check the gauge for wear and tear, and replace it if necessary.
Disposal Instructions
