where the sensor will be mounted with
an alcohol pad.
Step 3) Apply a piece of scotch tape to
the top of the sensor hanging over so
that it can be stuck straight and square
on the front of the bow (see Fig. 2).
Push the tape down to act as a hinge so
the sensor can fold back away from the
bow (to allow glue to be applied to the
sensors in step 3) (See Fig. 3).
Step 4) After double checking the sensor is square and does not
protrude over the edge of the riser. Fold the sensor back so the
4 copper strain gauges are facing up towards you. Apply a dot of
glue on each copper pad (dot should be the same size as the
copper pad). Cover the green pc board above the strain gauge

with glue. Tip: more glue is better then
not enough glue. (See Fig. 4).
Step 5) Starting at the bottom where
the tape meets the edge of the green
PC board, rotate the sensor towards
the bow making sure to keep it straight.
Make sure not to let the sensor slide.
Press and hold the sensor down evenly and firmly for 15
seconds. Be careful when you pull your fingers off not to let
glue stick to them and pull the sensor off. Push the tape down
completely around the sensor.
Step 6) Use electrical tape to go around the sensor and the riser.
Lightly at first to be sure the sensor does not slide. Once you
have two full wraps around the sensor, pull the tape snug going
around the sensor from bottom to top to the USB connector.
