[. . . ] NEVER shoot a bow without a nock set or with a nock set that has not been properly crimped. For proper installation Hoyt USA recommends that this be done by a qualified Pro Shop. fig 4 CABLE GUARD INSTALLATION All aluminum Hoyt USA bows are designed with a built in cable guard bar attachment. To 10 insert the cable guard bar, simply slide the bar into the two mounting holes on the riser making sure that the bar is pushed completely through and flush with the end of the front mounting hole. After the bar has been inserted fasten with the 8-32 x 1/2 screws provided. (See fig 5) 8-32NC Screws SHCS Flush w/Front of Riser fig 5 Hoyt USA's magnesium bows are designed with a high mount style cable guard bar that is mounted directly to the side of the riser by two 10-24 screws. (See fig 6) All of Hoyt USA's aluminum target bows come with an adjustable stainless 10-24 SHCS steel cable guard bar. On some shorter axle to axle models, adjustable cable guard bars can fig 6 be off-set too much 11 causing the cable to track off the cam. This can cause damage to the bow or personal injury. To prevent this from happening, NEVER SET THE BAR AT THE THREE O' CLOCK POSITION. CABLE GUARD GLIDE INSTALLATION Hoyt USA uses a specially designed cable glide that has off-set cable slots. To correctly install the glide on two-cam, VersaCam, and Redline Cam model bows, make sure that when the cables are inserted into the glide the shortest slot is to the rear and the longer slot closest to the grip. For all SaberCam model bows, make sure that the longest slot is to the rear and the shorter slot is closest to the grip. (See fig 7) SaberCam Glide Position fig. 7 Note: If you have trouble pulling the cables back far enough to get the glide over the end of the cable guard bar, you will need to use a bow press. Hoyt USA recommends that the cable 12 guard glide installation be done at a Pro Shop. CAUTION: Do not pull bow back without proper installation of cable guard bar and glide. TILLER ADJUSTMENT Tiller is the difference in actual distance between the upper limb to the string and lower limb to the string measured from the base of the limbs (where the limb and riser meet) at a 90 degree angle. (See fig 8) Tiller Tiller Tiller Tiller fig. 9 Single cam models must be measured from a ref13 erence line from axle to axle. (See fig 9) The main function of tiller is to allow the archer to more easily and comfortably aim during the draw and release of the shot. Most bows will shoot best with an even tiller which means the distance from the string to the limb is the same on top and bottom. Tiller adjustments are made by adjusting either limb weight adjustment bolt.
