NOCK SET INSTALLATION

A nock point is a reference on the string that marks

the exact location for you to nock your arrow. The

arrow’s nock is positioned under the nock set. To

install the nock set at the proper position begin by

slipping the nock set on the string. Then, using your

rest as a reference, position the nock set just above

level. A finger shooter should initially position the

nock set at approximately 3/16” above level. The

release shooter should position the nock set so that

the arrow sits at a 90 degree angle with the string

and adjust height as needed. (See fig 4) Once the

nock set is at the desired location use a special set

of nocking pliers to crimp the nock set into place.

NEVER shoot a bow without a nock set or with a nock

set that has not been properly crimped. For proper

installation Hoyt recommends that this be done by a

qualified pro shop.

CABLE GUARD INSTALLATION

All Hoyt bows are designed with a built in cable guard

bar attachment. Before mounting the cable guard bar,

you must remove the rubberbands used only for ship-

ping purposes. To insert the cable guard bar, simply

slide the bar through 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

1/4-20 x 1/2" set screws provided. (See fig 5)

CABLE GUARD GLIDE INSTALLATION

To prevent your bow’s cables from rubbing against

each other, Hoyt uses a specially designed cable

glide that has off-set cable slots. To correctly install

the glide on all Hoyt bows, first place the glide on the

cable guard bar. (See fig 6) Next, push the control

cable into the shorter front slot. Then, push the buss

cable into the longer rear slot. CAUTION: Do not pull

bow back without proper installation of cable guard

bar and glide.
