COCKING THE CROSSBOW

DO

NOT cock or load your crossbow unless you

are in a safe area to shoot.

1. Before cocking your crossbow, move the safety into the

“fire” position by pushing it forward and pull the trigger to

insure that the mechanism is ready to accept the string.

2. With the stirrup of the crossbow resting on the ground,

place your foot well into the stirrup and lay the center of

the auxilliary cocking rope under the shoulder of the grip

stock just behind the scope rail. Set the auxilliary cocking

rope hooks securely on the string facing down, on both

sides of the rail. See Fig. 9. Pull straight up using the “T

Handles” until the string is fully engaged. See Fig. 10.

DO

NOT release the string completely until you are certain

it is engaged. If the trigger latch did not capture the string,

lower the string gently and repeat steps 1 and 2.

3. When the crossbow is cocked, the safety is automatically

in the “safe” position as shown in Fig. 11. Always check

to ensure that the safety is into the “safe” position. Never

assume that the safety is on!!
