2. Loosen knobs on upper pin bracket and
slide the bracket out to the rubber
bumpers. Leave the X-straps attached
to the jack pin.
3. Loosen the two front knobs of the riser
support units and slide/crank the pin
units in or out so that the two inside
7/8" pins are close to where the bow
riser and the bow limb meet.
Tip for the X-PRESS (not PRO):
Place your thumbs at the base of each
riser support bracket—just above the
main horizontal tube—and 2 forefin-
gers on the outside of the riser support
bracket. While sliding out on the brack-
et, press down and outward with your
thumbs and upwards with your fin-
gers—the supports will slide easier.
4. Set the press for the length of the riser:
Place the bow riser or limb on top of
the inside 7/8" pins with the bow string
down and slide/crank the pin units until
they rest in the pocket where the riser
and the limbs meet. Lock the front riser
support unit knobs.
Note:
Make sure that the rubber straps
are on the inside 7/8" pins toward the
press arms before continuing.
5. Remove hairpin clip from the jack pin.
6. Remove the X-straps from the jack post and rest them on the
inside 7/8" pins.
7. Remove the bow and turn it over with the string side up and
set it under the inside 7/8" pins so they sit in the pocket where
the riser and limbs meet. Pull the rubber straps under the limb
and over the pin.—This will support
the bow and free up your hands to
make it easier to continue.
8. With one hand pull one of the
X-straps up. With the other hand
loosen the side knob. While holding
the X-strap/bracket assembly to the
limb, slide the outside 7/8" pin
bracket so the pin rests just below
the cams, making sure you leave
enough room to work on the cams.
Tip:
Some bows may have to be set
just above or below the limb buttons.
If there are limb savers on the bow,
the 7/8" pin may be placed between
them and the cam. In some cases the
limb saver may need to be moved a
little bit to position the X-strap pins
the same on both limbs.
9. Slide the other end of this X-strap
onto the jack pin to the nearest hole,
while keeping the outside 7/8" pin as
close as possible to the limb.
10. Repeat steps 8 and 9 for the other
X-strap and 7/8" pin alignment.
Tip:
Notice which hole (high or
low) the first X-strap is in and use
the same for the second X-strap (high hole with high hole
or low hole with low hole). This should eliminate the
counting of the holes and make setup easier.
Note:
The hole count
has
to match on both sides.
11. Reinsert the hairpin clip. Now you are ready to crank the
jack up to relax the bowstring.
