Compound Bow Set-Up & Tuning Procedure
Rev 02/12/08
1. Remove bow from shipping box. Remove bow from plastic bag and remove the owner’s guide and other
promotional material from the bow.
2. Read the Owner’s Guide before using the product.
3. Inspect the bow to insure that the cables and string are in their tracks on the cam and attached to the posts
properly. Check all screws and bolts to insure they are not loose, including rubber dampers and cam
modules and/or inner cams.
4. Set Draw weight: Adjust draw weight to the desired level by turning the limb bolts clockwise to increase
weight and counter-clockwise to decrease weight. Turn both limb bolts equal amounts for the initial setting.
5. Set tiller: Check tiller before making any other adjustments. The distance from the riser to the string, as
shown in the photo below, should be the same for both the top and bottom limbs. If the distance is the
same, no adjustment is required. If the distance varies more than 1/8”, adjust the limb bolts the same
amount in OPPOSITE directions until the tiller is correct. For example, if the top limb bolt is turned
clockwise a half a turn, the bottom limb bolt must be turned counter clockwise a half a turn. For One-Cam
bows, the tiller must be measured by tying a thin piece of string from one axle to the other and using that
string to measure tiller.
