CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Care of String
The owners kit contains a tube of lubewax that should be applied
to the center serving and flight track every 5 – 10 shots. Lube
wax should also be applied anywhere the cables make contact
with the Teflon tape or flight track every 20 – 30 shots. To
extend the life of your cables it is important to apply ARCHERY
STRING WAX to all areas of the cables and string every 30 - 50
shots or when white fuzz begins to appear. If the crossbow has
been exposed to excessive moisture you may need to apply wax
sooner.
PRIOR TO EVERY SHOOTING SESSION, IT IS
RECOMMENDED THAT A COMPLETE CHECK OF CABLES,
WHEELS, SCREWS AND ARROWS BE MADE.
• Always store your crossbow in a safe, dry place.
• Do not expose your crossbow to extreme heat, such
as closed, hot vehicles or near heat sources.
• Inspect cables and strings for signs of wear. An
authorized service center or the factory should
replace Cables showing wear immediately.
• Periodically put a few drops of quality lightweight
machine oil in the trigger mechanism.
• Periodically lubricate the eccentric wheel axels with
lightweight machine oil.
• Keep the flight track and the string serving waxed,
reducing friction.
• Your prod can be left strung indefinitely although
we do not recommend that the bow be left in the
cocked position for periods longer than four hours.
With reasonable care of your equipment and diligent practice,
your crossbow will remain an accurate, highly efficient hunting
weapon.
