Adjust  weight by loosening the weight/tiller locking screw.  Do
this by using one of the two allen wrenches provided to hold the
weight/tiller adjustment bolt in place, and  the other wrench to
loosen the weight/tiller locking screw.  Once the locking screw
is loose and the bow is unstrung, you can adjust the weight/tiller
adjustment bolt to the desired weight. Turning the weight/tiller
adjustment bolt clock-
wise will increase bow
weight.  Turning the
same bolt counter-clock-
wise will decrease bow
weight.  Be sure to lock
down the weight/tiller
locking screw before
s h o o t i n g
the bow.
Tiller
Tiller is the difference in draw weight
between the upper and lower limbs.  This is
easily measured by noting the difference in
distance between the top limb butt to the
string, and the lower limb butt to the string.
To set tiller, measure the distance from the
base of the limb pockets to the bow string
on both the top and bottom bow limbs.  The
main function of tiller is to allow the archer
to more easily and comfortably aim during
the draw. When initially putting your bow
together, we recommend you begin with 0-
1/8” positive tiller. (Bottom measurement 0-
1/8” less than top measurement.)
Warning: Do not adjust weight on any
adjustable bow beyond the limit shown in the
drawing above.  The weight/tiller bolt should
never go above flush with the riser. There
must be at least six threads of engagement
between the riser and weight tiller bolt.
