directions for break down
it´s indeed a litle bit tricky:
- pull back the slide and fix it in the rear position with the safety lever.
- Pull out the mainspring rod against the tension of the spring and release with an angle to the former alignment, so it won´t go in again
- pull out the barrel block to the TOP
The notch at the bottom of the clip will fit into the groove on the front of the mainspring rod to pull it out (at least, if you got a genuine clip)
Note, that there is an interlocking between the release of the clip and the safety lever.
