BOW ADJUSTMENTS

Xact Timing (Two cam bows only)

Timing refers to the synchronization (or lack of syn-

chronization) that occurs when wheels and cams “break
over” as the string is drawn. “Times” bows break over in
unison (synchronization). “Unlimited” bows do not.

Every Escalade Sports bow is perfectly timed before

it leave the factory. But if you change the weight or draw
length settings or if your cables stretch from heat, cold,
or time, you can quickly detect a timing problem and
easily correct it in minutes.

Check and set your timing using the Xact Timing

Gauge. This gauge is provided with every bow featuring
Xact Timing, or it can be purchased separately.

To adjust timing:

1) Place the bow in a horizontal position.
2) Identify the eccentric with the Reference Line that

is least parallel to the string. This eccentric will
need adjustment.

3) Place the Xact Timing Gauge on the string near

the opposite eccentric; align the Xact Timing
Gauge Indicate with the Reference Line on that
eccentric.

4) Reposition the Xact Timing Gauge on the string

next to the eccentric that needs to be adjusted.

5) Loosen the cap-

head screw that
locks the timing
feature in place
using a 3/16” hex
wrench.
