User manual BARNETT CROSSBOWS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

[. . . ] The Revolution trigger mechanism has a precision outer case, molded of high-strength polycarbonate material. The interior moving parts are either machined or of high tolerance castings. This is standard on Revolution XS, Revolution, and Quad 400. The innovative extended trigger mechanism allows for crossbows designed with extremely long power strokes without causing the bow to become large and unwieldy. [. . . ] A: It is safe to keep your bow cocked while you are hunting in a stationary position. FOR PERSONAL SAFETY REASONS, DO NOT STALK OR WALK TO AND FROM YOUR STAND WITH YOUR BOW COCKED. We do recommend that if you break from your hunt that you let the bow down to the un-cocked position by shooting a target arrow into a safe backstop. It would be good practice to let the bow down every 4 hours relax it for about ½ hour. Q: Why does my bow shoot to the right or to the left?A: This question can be answered as simply as checking to see if the bow is being cocked off center. If the string is cocked off center to the left or right, the arrow will shoot off to the left or right. The string being off center by as little as 1/8" could result in the shot being off several inches down range. To remedy this, put a mark on the string's center serving where it crosses over the flight track when the bow is not cocked. When you cock the bow to shoot again, make it a priority to have the string's marks centered in the trigger mechanism. If it is cocked and still off center, grasp the string and nudge it into the centered position, with the safety still engaged. The other problem may be slightly more technical. Your bow could be out of till (out of square). If you have made any adjustments to the limb bolts (the bolts that secure the limbs onto the bow) this is a possibility. Measure from the point where the limb meets the prod housing back to the string. Do this on each side of the prod housing. If the measurement is not equal then the bow is out of till. It would be best to have a dealer make the till adjustment to correct the problem. All Barnett Compound Crossbows are pre-set for tiller and proper draw weight at the factory. A: If you are using field points, you can simply adjust the sights to correct the problem. Also check that all of your arrows are the same length and shaft size (i. e. , 20" - 2219 with 125 grain field tip). If you are using broad heads, you may be experiencing planing, which means that the blades of the broad head catch air as they fly. [. . . ] Warranty excludes the normal wear and tear on the cables and strings, dry firing, and misuse.
