Install and tighten the Riser bolt (Part K ) firmly. Install the 1/4"x1/4" Set Screw (Part J), to the bottom of the riser to prevent the riser bolt from backing out. NOTICE Failure to properly tighten the riser bolt can cause noise and vibration. 6. Attach the Stirrup (Part C) to the riser by using 2 longer set screws. Make sure the flat of the Stirrup is facing the bottom of the bow and is aligned with the set screw holes on the bottom of the riser. CAUTION Failure to properly install the stirrup can cause injury during cocking. 1. 7. Screw the Quick Detach Quiver Mounting Bracket (Part D) to the Riser using the provided screw and Allen Wrench. 8. Insert the Quiver (Part B), by sliding it into the Mounting Bracket until it hits the stop. 13. Mark your string to ensure that you are cocking the bow in a consistent manner. Due to the high draw weight involved in cocking the bow, it is easy to cock the crossbow off center. Failure to cock the crossbow squarely will result in poor accuracy. Simply mark the string with a marker or other means visibly ensure the bow is being cocked properly. 14. Before use, lubricate the string serving and rail with the provided lubricant (Part H). Failure to do so will result in premature string wear. Parts should be re-lubricated every 10 to 15 shots NOTICE Make sure that you apply rail lube to the rail before cocking. 9.

Anti-dry fire indicator ONCE COCKED Safety Switch When cocked the anti-dry fire indicator will move from FIRE SAFE ''ON" to "OFF', and the safety switch from "FlRE" to the "SAFE" position. 15. G THE ANTI-DRY FIRE TRIGGER The anti-dry fire indicator will always be in the "ON" position when not cocked. Once cocked, two actions will occur simultaneously: The anti-dry fire indicator will move from "ON" to "OFF" and the safety switch will move from "FIRE" to "SAFE" automatically. Uncock your crossbow by loading it with a bolt and shooting into an appropriate discharge target. This action will disengage the anit-dry fire safety mechanism, which will allow you to move the safety switch from "SAFE" to "FIRE". 16. Before cocking, make sure the safety switch is in the"Fire" position. The trigger will not engage the sting unless the trigger is in the "FIRE" position CAUTION Drape the middle of the rope over the groove in the stock located behind the trigger mechanism/scope. 17. To use the Cocking Rope (Part A), place the hooks onto the crossbow string on each side of the flight track/rail. WA R N I N G accurate 4. 19. We suggest beginning to sight in your crossbow at no more than 10 yards to ensure that you are able to hit the target easily and to avoid loss or damage of your bolts. You will be sighting in the TOP CIRCLE on your scope for the shortest distance. The other circles below the top one will offer you additional yardage sight points, the lower the circle the further the distance. These distances will depend on your initial yardage sighting of the top circle, and also depend on your bolt (bolt shaft length, size and weight of tip).
