equal number of turns to the left side screw (viewed from the
face or archer side of the riser) will move the limb tip to the
LEFT.
•
Removing turns from the left side screw and adding an equal
number of turns to the right sidescrew (viewed from the face
or archer side of the riser) will move the limb tip to the RIGHT.

Once the proper alignment is achieved, you should snug
BOTH alignment bolts against the dovetail block to the tight-
ened position. Then, replace the locking screws and snug
them tightly.
Adjustments can be made to the string to adjust brace height.
Adding twists will increase the brace height while removing
twist will decrease the brace height. Generally, Hoyt does not
recommend less than 10 twists in a string. Optimum brace
height is one that gives a smooth bow action, good arrow
flight, tight grouping and often yields the quietest shot.
ADJUSTING WEIGHT
WARNING: Never loosen your limb weight adjustment
bolts (Tiller Bolts) more than 6 turns from the bottomed-out
position as it could cause the bow to violently disassemble
Hoyt Recurve bows are adjustable over a range of approxi-
mately 10%. Factors which affect this include limb length,
limb construction, limb design and brace height.
1. Unstring the bow using an appropriate recurve bow string-
er (See page 15).
2. Using the longer of the two supplied Allen wrenches;
loosen the tiller bolt locking screw (see image on pg. 4). If you
plan to increase weight you will need to loosen this screw by
more turns than you plan to add to the tiller screw.
3. Turn the weight/tiller adjustment bolt clockwise to increase
