CARE AND MAINTENANCE
With proper care and a minimum amount of routine
maintenance, your bow will be kept in top condition.
However, it is still important to carefully inspect your bow on
a regular basis.
Cleaning
Your bow should be kept clean of dust, mud and grime. Use
a damp soft cotton cloth to remove dirt and moisture. Do not
use solvents such as acetone or mineral spirits as they may
damage the finish.
Storage and Transportation
Avoid exposing your bow to temperatures over 125 degrees.
Excessive heat may damage your bow. Do not leave your
bow in your vehicle on a hot sunny day or store in a hot
attic or other hot enclosed area. Clean your bow thoroughly
after each use. Never put your bow away wet or store it in a
damp place. Lightly oil all steel parts (axles, mounting screws)
to prevent rust. You can relax the limbs if storing for more
than a year. Follow the instructions under Peak Draw Weight
Adjustment in the bow adjustment section.
Bow Presses
Use only APPROVED bow presses. Older style “single-pull”
bow presses that contact the bow only in the grip area can
result in bent or broken risers.
See page 4 and/or www.BearArcheryProducts.com for
additional bow press information.
