Loading and sHooting

your 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 Fig. 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 foregrip 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.

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

Take careful aim and squeeze the trigger smoothly to fire

the crossbow.

cocKing tHe crossbow

NoT cock or load your crossbow unless you

are in a safe area to do so.

1. Before cocking your crossbow, move the safety into the

“fire” position by pushing it forward and pull the trigger to

assure that the mechanism is ready to accept the string.

2. With the stirrup of the crossbow resting on the ground,

place your foot well into the stirrup and lay the center of

the auxilliary cocking rope under the shoulder of the grip

stock just behind the scope rail (Fig. 1). Set the auxilliary

cocking rope hooks securely on the string facing down,

on both sides of the rail (Fig. 2). Pull straight up using

the “T Handles” until the string is fully engaged.

do NoT

release the string completely until you are certain it

is engaged. If the trigger latch did not capture the string,

lower the string gently and repeat steps 1 and 2.

3. When the crossbow is cocked, the safety is automatically

in the “safe” position. Always check to ensure that the

safety is into the “safe” position. Never assume that the

safety is on!!
