X TECHNOLOGY
The X Technology bows come with many unique features that will
enhance your archery experience.
INDEPENDENT SPLIT LIMB POCKET SYSTEM
Some X Technology bows are equipped with independent split limb (ISL)
pockets. If servicing a bow with ISL pockets refer to the instruction sheet
that came with the bow or visit www.pse-archery.com.
Do not make any adjustment to this system without
referring to the instructions.
MAINTENANCE
Your bow is a mechanical device that is subject to wear and therefore
must be inspected periodically and given the proper adjustments and service. It is
recommended that this service be performed at least once a year by an authorized PSE
dealer. All components, including string, cables, axles, e-clips, limbs and riser should be
carefully inspected for damage or wear.
STRINGS AND CABLES
Apply a light coat of high quality bowstring wax to your string and cable each time you shoot
your bow. It is especially important NOT to wax the area of the string that wraps around the
idler wheel. This area of the string should be treated with a cam lubricant. This will help
reduce wear on your string and cables. Inspect the string and cables regularly and replace
them when there is evidence of wear, every 5000 shots or every 12 months.
USING A BOW PRESS
ALL X Technology bows MUST be serviced in an approved bow press and require special
consideration. Do not attempt to service these bows in any bow press without reviewing the
procedures described herein.
Use of a non-approved bow press or improper use of an approved bow press WILL result in
damage to the bow and possible personal injury. Damages incurred by improper use or
maintenance will not be covered under the warranty. See the PSE website for a list of
approved bow presses www.pse-archery.com
There are two basic types of approved presses available: compression-type and pull-type.
COMPRESSION-TYPE BOW PRESS:
This type of press pushes in a horizontal direction against the tips of the limbs.
No other support for the bow is required.
When using a press of this type, back each limb bolt out 4 turns from the bottom setting,
position the bow in the press and crank press inward to apply a compression force against
the limb tips as shown.
