How to install the bowstring of the crossbow

Bowstring installation steps are as follows:

1. Check the state of the crossbow: the crossbow must be taken out of the package and checked for damage or defects.

2. Install the bowstring: Install the bowstring on the crossbow to ensure that the bowstring is correctly tied to the string puller. Some crossbow strings need to be placed at the bottom of the crossbow reel first, and then the two ends of the string are placed on the pulleys on both sides of the crossbow reel respectively, and the handle (or lever) is pulled to make the string taut.

3. Adjust the tension of the rope: Adjust the tension of the rope to make it suitable for shooting. This step is very important because the tension of the line is too large or too small, which will affect the shooting effect.

4. Install the arrow slot and arrow: Assemble the arrow slot and arrow on the crossbow.

5. Install sight or sight: Install sight or sight on crossbow.
