Unloading and Uncocking

The safest way for one person to unload and uncock a crossbow
is to discharge an arrow into a target at close range or into the
ground. Be extremely careful if firing into the ground since the
arrow could ricochet and cause damage to person or property.
Using an old arrow with a field point installed would be suitable for
unloading purposes. NEVER DRY FIRE YOUR CROSSBOW.
Doing so will damage the crossbow, possibly cause bodily harm
and void the warranty.

Sighting In

When using the rear peep sight and front sight pins provided with
the crossbow the following procedure can be followed to sight in
your crossbow.

Before starting, set the adjustable sight setting to the “0” position.
All further adjustments will be made with the front sight pins.

Moving the sight pins:

UP will cause the arrow to shoot LOWER.

DOWN will cause the arrow to shoot HIGHER.

LEFT will cause the arrow to shoot RIGHT.
RIGHT will cause the arrow to shoot LEFT.


Two pins are provided with your crossbow with slots and room
provided to add more pins if desired. It is suggested that 10-yard
intervals be used for pin placement starting at 20 yards.

See your local PSE crossbow dealer to purchase additional pins.

If you choose to mount a scope on your crossbow, the scope rail
feature can be used. 7/8-inch base scope rings will be necessary.
After mounting your scope following the manufacturer’s
recommendations for adjusting windage ad distance.
