Horton Archery Horizon Archery CB300Z - Manual

Dear Horton Customer:
Recently, Horton discovered that some of our 2012 crossbows equipped with the Anti-Dry Fire (“ADF”) feature may
remain in the “safety lock” position even after an arrow is fully inserted down the barrel. We want to emphasize that
this “ADF Safety Lock” issue does not impact the safety or shooting performance of the bow, and only affects a small
percentage of bows within certain 2012 production runs assembled in our facility.
In the event your Horton bow exhibits this ADF Safety Lock issue, there are three options to address this issue (see
link to “Instructional videos” below):
1.Disengage ADF – Customers may shoot the bow by simply pressing the “manual ADF release lever” to disengage
the ADF device and slide the safety lever to the fire position prior to shooting. An arrow must always be fully
inserted down the barrel before discharging the bow.
2.Replace ADF – A simple procedure to replace the ADF accessory with a new one, supplied by Horton free of
charge, can be performed by the end-user or retailer in less than five minutes (see below for ordering a replacement
ADF)
3.Remove ADF – Alternatively, the ADF accessory device may be removed from the bow in a three minute proce-
dure by removing a pin.
The ADF Safety Lock issue was caused by an assembly procedure we implemented in early 2012 that placed a wire
coil in an incorrect location. We recently corrected and implemented a new procedure so that current production is
not impacted. Bow models that may be affected are as follows:
Model Serial Number’s Cabela’s SKU#
Brotherhood & Bone Collector Models Between 84262 and 88671
CB300, CB300Z, CB302, CB305
Team Realtree Models Between 107055 and 112008
CB514, CB517
Fury Models Between 22025 and 25042
CB870, CB871, CB875
Zombie Bow
03485686
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the ADF Safety Lock if you happen to have one of our 2012 cross-
bows affected by this issue. Again, this issue does not impact the safety or shooting performance of your Horton
crossbow.
