Loading and Shooting the Crossbow

1. With the crossbow cocked and pointed safely down range,

place an arrow of the correct size in the groove on top of
the rail with the odd colored fletching down (into the
groove). See figure 13. Slide the arrow back into the string
under the arrow retention spring until it makes complete
contact with the string. The crossbow is now loaded.
Handle with extreme care.

2. With the crossbow still pointed safely down range, place

the butt of the stock on your shoulder with the front hand
on the forearm of the stock. IMPORTANT: keep your
thumb and fingers well below the path of the string
and cables .
Keep your eye at least 2 inches behind the
rear sight or scope. See figure 14.

3. Move the safety to the “fire” position by pushing it forward.

Take careful aim and squeeze the trigger smoothly to fire
the crossbow.
