     Cocking The Crossbow 

 
Prior to every shooting session it is recommended that a 
complete check of the prod, string, bolts, nuts screws and foot 
stirrup be made. Before cocking your crossbow make sure your 
foot stirrup has been attached in accordance with the assembly 
instructions. Cocking your crossbow with an incorrectly 
attached foot stirrup may cause bodily injury. Be sure to apply 
Barnett lubewax to the center string serving and the flight track 
area from the string to the trigger area. 

 

1.) Place the foot stirrup on the ground with the stock end 

resting in your mid-section. Place 

your foot firmly in the foot stirrup. 
Place both hands on the bowstring 

about one inch on each side of the 
crossbow body. See Figure 3 

2.) Using both hands with even 

tension,  pull the string back until it 
locks into trigger mechanism with 

an audible “click”. 

4.) The crossbow is now cocked.  

5.) Verify your string markings are an equal distance on 
either side of the flight track. Place the arrow forward under 

the front sight bracket and lay the arrow on the flight 
surface.  When using arrows with moon nocks, be sure that 

the odd colored fletch is placed in the flight grove and that 
the concaved nock is parallel to the string. 

Loading The Crossbow 

1.)  Place the arrow forward under the front sight bracket and  

lay the arrow on the flight surface.  Be sure that the odd   
colored fletch is placed in the flight grove.  

2.)Slide the arrow back under the arrow retaining spring 
and

 fully into the trigger mechanism

. Note: The arrow 

retaining spring should only exert enough pressure to hold 
the arrow in place without lifting it from its position on the 

flight surface.
