To my knowledge there is no schematic drawing available. Maybe I’m wrong about that. The rod you are referring to sounds like the automatic safety push rod. You can remove it and it will simply convert the gun to a manual safety which is preferred by some.

That pin actuates the automatic safety when the top-lever is pushed to the right. Cut-aways from the 1908 "Campfire" Catalog --

I gotta wonder what would a schematic do for you that the Disassembly Instructions on our home page doesn't cover?

I have the same question as Dave. Just a caution, if a hobbyist goes farther to remove the hammers and mainsprings for whatever reason, get ready for some fun trying to put them back in. frank :roll:
