This will prevent your hands from being struck by the string
as it travels forward. The velocity of the string hitting your
fingers will cause severe injury.
Unloading your Crossbow
The safest way to un-cock your crossbow is to fire an arrow into a
target or into the ground away from debris, loose rocks or other
people. Note: Take caution not to target any solid object as the
arrow may ricochet, potentially causing harm to you or others.
Sighting-In the Crossbow
Please refer to the instructions included with your scope
package.
Arrow Retainer Spring
When loaded, the arrow should lie flat in the flight groove. The
arrow retainer spring should not be twisted to the side and
should only exert enough pressure to hold the arrow in place.
When the crossbow is pointed at the ground, the arrow should
remain in place and not slide forward. It should not lift the front
of the arrow off the flight groove, and the arrow should be
parallel with the flight groove.
• To adjust the over-molded style retainer spring, use a pair of
needle nose pliers and bend to increase/decrease pressure
on the arrow. USE CAUTION! (See Figure 9)
• To adjust the composite style retainer spring turn the set
screw clockwise to tighten pressure on the arrow and
counterclockwise to loosen pressure on the arrow. (See
Figure 10)
NOTE: The arrow retainer spring’s tension is set for Barnett arrow
height. Therefore, after-market arrows may require adjustments.
If you have any questions, please give our customer service
department a call, prior to adjusting.
