WARNINGS
DANGEROUS PROJECTILE
• A mishandled bow, arrow or bowstring may result in serious injury or even death.
• Bows and arrows are not toys.
• Failure to follow Instructions and Safety Warnings could result in serious or fatal injuries to the user or people nearby.
The user's parent and/or user MUST read, understand and follow these INSTRUCTIONS and SAFETY WARNINGS
• Always point the bow and arrow in a safe direction down-range at targets intended to be shot.
• Never shoot toward a human being or pet or permit someone to hold a target for you.
• Never run with a bow or while carrying arrows; the point or nock of an arrow can cause serious injury.
• Be sure no one is standing in front of or to the sides of the archer while the bow is being drawn or shot!
Be sure everyone is standing behind the archer.
• Shoot only at a suitable target material and backstop. Try first shots at closer distances of 5-10 paces to avoid errant
shots or until the archer feels comfortable shooting the bow accurately.
• Never shoot an arrow up in the air, it can travel several hundred yards and land anywhere!
• Always use extreme care when pulling arrows from a target; arrows can come out suddenly, jerking backward forcefully
poking into someone's body, face or eyes without warning.
• Always have an adequate backstop in the area behind the target. Make sure the area behind the target is clear and
free of objects that may be hazardous or cause the arrows to bounce off or be deflected.
• If shooting in a group, do not allow anyone to retrieve arrows until ALL arrows have been shot!
• Never dry fire your bow. That is, never pull back and release the string without an arrow nocked.
• Inspect your arrows before each shot to detect any cracks or damage & never use arrows that are damaged or too short.
• Replace your bowstring when it becomes worn or frayed.
• Always string your bow properly and carefully using a bow stringer.
• Store in a safe place. Keep out of the reach of children.
• Safety precautions must be taken with adult use or supervision just as with an air rifle, darts or any other potentially
dangerous projectile.
• The buyer and user of this product acknowledge that this is a potentially dangerous product that can inflict serious or
fatal injury.
ASSEMBLING THE BOW
Your Sage or Sage Elite comes in three pieces – riser and two limbs – plus a bow-
string. Each limb will be marked with either "Upper" or "Lower" on the square end
of the limb. These markings determine which limb goes on the top of the riser, and
which goes on the bottom.
Take the Upper limb and seat it in the rectangular limb pocket on the top side of the
riser. When seated properly, the hole in the limb should align with the drilled and
tapped hole in the riser. Now you're going to insert the limb bolt through the limb
into the riser and hand twist to engage the threads.
The Sage Elite is one piece which is affixed using a flathead bolt. Tightening this
bolt requires the use of a hex wrench. (See Figure 1)
The Sage is one piece that is tightened by hand. There are no tools required for
assembling this bow. (See Figure 2)
Once the bolt is engaged with the riser threading, use a 3/16-inch hex wrench for
the Sage Elite, or your hand for the Sage, to completely screw in the bolt. Hand
tighten it at the end so that it is snug. Do not use excessive force to finish tighten-
ing the bolt.
Repeat this process for the Lower limb, and your bow is now ready to be strung.
Please note that Sage and Sage Elite limbs cannot be used interchangeably be-
tween the two risers. Please only install Sage limbs on Sage risers and Sage Elite
limbs on Sage Elite risers.
