CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Lubrication
Your Bear Archery compound bow requires very little
lubrication. Wipe the cable guard periodically with a dry
cloth to keep the cable slide running smoothly and free
of dust. Cam and idler wheel bearings do not require
lubrication. If other lubrication is necessary, use white lithium
grease or Teflon lubricants. Avoid excessive lubrication of
any item, as this can attract dirt. On hunting bows, avoid
lubricants with obvious odors.
String and Cable Maintenance
Regularly apply a high quality bowstring wax to your string
and cable system. Regular waxing protects your cables and
strings from abrasion, wear and separation. Smear the wax
into position. Then, rub it gently with your fingers or a soft
piece of leather to work the wax into the strands. Replace
frayed or worn bowstrings and cables immediately.
Bear Archery strongly recommends replacing the bowstring
and cable annually. Please visit your local Bear Archery
dealer for assistance.
