How to use a Bow Stringer
We recommend that you use a bow stringer to string your recurve bow because this is a difficult operation and you can damage your bow without one.
If you are unsure get help.

1. Distinguish the upper limb from the lower limb (the lower limb shows the label with indications of measurements and power).
2. Fix the upper limb in its appropriate space on the plastic of the handle, making sure that it is well aligned and hand tighten the screws. Repeat the same operation for the lower limb.
3.Take the bow stringer, it has a saddle one end and a cup the other.
4.Slide the saddle loop of the stringer over the top limb.
5.Push the remaining cup of the stringer over the other limb tip
6.Take the handle of the bow and block the stringer with your foot.
7.Pull the handle vertically to bend the bow and support the saddle while doing so.
8.When the limbs are sufficiently bent, the bow stringer should remain in place and allow you to slowly slide the string up to the notch on the tip of the limb.
9.Release slowly and remove the bow stringer. Make sure the string is correctly positioned.
