Step by step guide

Disassemble your CZ P09 so that you hold only the frame of your pistol.
Place the frame into firm position, ideally into vise with some cover to avoid scratches.
Press down the ejector to allow release of the cocking lever on left side of the gun (left side from the point of view of shooter)
Remove the cocking lever carefully, also remove the spring that got loose by the removal. Make sure not to lose the decocker spring.
Press the trigger bar down so that it will allow you to remove also the right side of the cocking lever.
*for the right cocking lever to be released, its necessary to move it up so it can go through the hole*
Now decocker is uninstalled and we can go ahead to install the safety.
For safety installation we will start with the right side first. Push down the trigger bar to allow inserting the right lever of the safety.
As with the removal of decocker, move the right side of the lever up so that it can be inserted into the hole. Once in, push the lever to the correct position. Then release the trigger bar.
To install the left safety lever in, push down the ejector and slide the safety lever through.
Make sure the left lever gets locked in the right side of the safety lever. You shall hear a click sound once its secured.
Check the functionality of the safety, both levers shall be moving into the same position.
