Instructions for converting bow for left handed archers

Your bow is set for right handed archers when shipped

1. Start by placing one end of the bow on your foot or a soft surface.
2. Relax the strings and cables by pressing down on the top limb portion of the bow. This will compress

the bow, relax the strings and allow the Black cam mounting bracket to easily slide off the end of the
bow. Refer to the illustrations below.

3. The opposite end of the string assembly will now slide easily off the opposite end of the bow.
4. Once the string assembly is removed, simply flip the bow over and reinstall the string assembly to

prepare the bow for a left handed archer. This is achieved by reversing the way the string assembly was
attached to the bow. Reinstall the Black cam bracket you removed from the top of the bow onto the
bottom of the bow and reinstall the bracket removed from the bottom of the bow onto the top.

5. The brackets must be installed ONLY one way. One side of the brackets has a metal lip. The opposite

side of the bracket should be installed on the bow first and the bracket must be slide onto the bow fully
until the lip contacts the end of the bow limb.

6. During disassembly and reassembly, it is very easy for the strings to fall out of their respective grooves

in the cam and MUST be realigned correctly around the entire cam before drawing the bow. Refer to the
illustrations below for further reference.

7. After reassembly, it is HIGHLY recommended that an adult draw the bow at least three times before

allowing children to use the bow.
