REQUIRED SAFE-OPERATING PARAMETERS
CAM SETTINGS
Both the top and bottom cams must be
of the same cam type and size. Most Hoyt
compound bows use a cam system that
can be adjusted to change the bow's draw
length. If your cams have an adjustable
module system for draw length adjust-
ments, all screws or other fasteners used
to attach the modules must be tight and
securely in place. The new SCTR cam has
two module options available. Always
ensure that the mods on the bottom and top cam are a matching set, and that
they are both positioned at the same draw length designation. Additionally,
ensure that the module foot is also installed on the module to act as a draw stop.
For cams with replaceable draw length modules, both the top and bottom mod-
ules must be a matching set. For cams that have a rotating type module for draw
length adjustment, both the top and bottom cam modules must be a matched set
and rotated and set in the same position (see Photo A).
Note: Bow should never be drawn without modules installed. Modules
using an adjustable let-off peg or mod-foot must be fully assembled
before the bow is drawn.
For more information on specific types of cams, settings, adjust-
ments, etc, see page 12.
LIMB WEIGHT ADJUSTMENT BOLT SETTINGS
All Hoyt compound bows have an adjustable limb
system that allows the bow's peak draw weight to be
adjusted within the specific bow's available range.
Your bow's peak draw weight can be adjusted within
the bow's range by turning the bow's top and bottom
limb weight adjustment bolts equally (see Photo B).
Never turn your bow's limb weight adjustment bolts
out more than 8 full turns as the bow will become
disassembled. Always ensure that both your top and bottom limb weight adjust-
ment bolts are adjusted and set at equal positions. Ensure you also adjust the
Stealth Shot to contact string after weight adjustment. For more information on
proper draw weight adjustment, see page 7.
ATTACHED BOW ACCESSORIES
Your Hoyt bow is equipped with various accessory mounting locations to allow
Position as
accessories such as sights, arrow rests, and stabilizers to be attached to your
shown with
arrow
bow. When attaching an accessory to your bow, follow all accessory mounting
and use instructions provided by the accessory manufacturer. Ensure that all

accessories are specifically right handed or left handed to match your bow
where applicable and that all mounting hardware is securely tightened. Ensure
that all attached accessories are clear of string and arrow flight path when
the bow is shot.
ARROW REST SETTING
There are many different arrow rest designs and
styles. Ensure the arrow rest is right handed or left
handed based on your bow. On all Hoyt bows, arrow
rests should be positioned on your bow so that your
arrow fletchings completely clear the bow riser
when the bow is shot. For all Hoyt bows, the required
safe operating position of the arrow rest when setup
within the safe operating parameters is with the
center of the arrow between 5/8" and 1" from the
bow's riser at the rest mounting location (see Photo
C). Always follow and use the specific arrow rest
manufacturer's instructions for correctly setting up
the arrow rest for proper function and tuning.
D-LOOPS AND NOCKING POINTS
All bows require the use of a D-Loop or a nocking point device to properly locate
the arrow onto the bow string in relationship to the arrow rest. For all Hoyt bows,
the required safe operating position of the D-Loop or the nocking point device is
