been engineered for accuracy, long life, and built with quality and pride. No other
bow delivers a higher performance to value ratio than a Bear. We know how much
you are going to enjoy your new bow. For this reason, we ask you to read the Care
and Maintenance section carefully to learn how easy it is to maintain the quality,
performance, and level of satisfaction you expect from a Bear Archery product.
ENJOY YOUR NEW BOW!
IMPORTANT LIMB INFORMATION
Your new Bear Archery bow uses the latest technology in limb design. This creates
a limb capable of storing optimal amounts of energy unlike any other bow in the
industry. For that reason, the use of limb mounted accessories such as vibration
dampeners must be restricted. These particular accessories MUST NOT BE mounted
more than 2 inches from the limb pockets. Mounting limb accessories more than 2
inches away from the pockets, particularly clamping type accessories, can potentially
damage the limbs and void the warranty. See the illustration below.
1IMPORTANT PRESS INFORMATION
Due to the design of your Bear Archery bow limbs, it is of the utmost importance
that your bow ONLY BE PRESSED IN PROPER BOW PRESSES. Traditional style presses
that use rollers to apply pressure only to the mid section of the limbs CANNOT BE
USED. As illustrated below, only presses that are capable of applying pressure to the
last 2” of the limbs should be utilized.
NOTE:
Limb bolts MUST be backed out 3 complete turns prior to pressing a bow equipped
with flare quad limbs and 4 complete turns for bows equipped with max pre-load
quad limbs.
! DO NOT USE THIS STYLE BOW PRESS !
Using the wrong bow press can result in immediate failure of the limbs, possible
injury and void the manufacturer’s warranty.
2IMPORTANT PRESS INFORMATION
Certain bow models require the use of Bow press MUST only be
fixed stops to prevent the press forces from applied to the outer 2’’ of
pushing the bow out of the bottom of the the limb tips.
press.
Press must ONLY apply
pressure to the limbs in
this area.
3! SAFETY FIRST !
Before using this equipment, read and follow these manufacturer’s instructions
carefully. If you have any questions, contact the manufacturer or a qualified dealer.
Dry-firing a bow severely reduces the life expectancy of the bow and may cause
immediate damage to the bow resulting in injury to yourself or others. Never dry
fire your bow! If a bow is dry fired, it should be fully inspected by an authorized
dealer before being shot again. Please note damage due to dry fire is not covered
under warranty.
Never pull back and release the bowstring without an arrow attached to the string.
Your bow is designed to transfer energy to a properly weighted arrow.
Shooting underweight arrows has the same effect as dry-firing a bow and may
cause serious injury. Use the proper arrow for you and your bow. If you are unsure
about your arrow choice, contact your local Bear Archery dealer or an arrow
manufacturer.
Do not use wooden or fiberglass arrows. They are not designed for use with this
compound bow and may cause serious injury. Use the proper arrow for you and
your bow. If you are unsure about your arrow choice, contact your archery dealer or
an arrow manufacturer.
Inspect your arrows and nocks regularly. Immediately discard any dented, split,
splintered or otherwise damaged arrows and replace cracked or broken nocks. A
good test is to flex the arrows after each shot.
Do not draw your bow beyond its maximum draw length as damage to the limbs,
cables and strings could occur.
The use of safety glasses is recommended with any archery product.
Bear Archery compound bows are designed to be shot using a Mechanical Release
Aid, Bear Archery does not recommend shooting with your fingers.
4! SAFETY FIRST !
Targets and Hunting Safety
- Be sure of your target. Bow hunters often wear camouflage and are difficult to
identify.
- Never aim at anything you don’t intend to shoot.
- Never point or aim a drawn bow at another person.
- Never draw or shoot when anyone is between you and your target.
- Never shoot at a target or object unless you are sure that it can stop your arrows.
- Make sure the area behind and around your target is clear.
- Before shooting, be sure that no part of the bow will strike any tree branches or
other obstacles.
- Never shoot arrows straight up in the air or in any direction where you might
destroy property or endanger life.
- Always obey city and county ordinances.

8CARE AND MAINTENANCE
With proper care and a minimum amount of routine maintenance, your bow will be
kept in top condition. However, it is still important to carefully inspect your bow on
a regular basis.
Cleaning
Your bow should be kept clean of dust, mud and grime. Use a damp soft cotton
cloth to remove dirt and moisture. Do not use solvents such as acetone or mineral
spirits as they may damage the finish.
Storage and Transportation
Avoid exposing your bow to temperatures over 125 degrees. Excessive heat may
damage your bow. Do not leave your bow in your vehicle on a hot sunny day or
store in a hot attic or other hot enclosed area. Clean your bow thoroughly after
each use. Never put your bow away wet or store it in a damp place. Lightly oil
all steel parts (axles, mounting screws) to prevent rust. You can relax the limbs
if storing for more than a year. Follow the instructions under Peak Draw Weight
Adjustment in the bow adjustment section.
Bow Presses
Use only APPROVED bow presses. Older style “single-pull” bow presses that contact
the bow only in the grip area can result in bent or broken risers.
See page 2 and/or www.BearArchery.com for additional bow press information.
Lubrication
Your Bear Archery compound bow requires very little lubrication. Wipe the cable
guard periodically with a dry cloth to keep the cable slide running smoothly and free
of dust. Cam and idler wheel bearings do not require lubrication. If other lubrication
is necessary, use white lithium grease or Teflon lubricants. Avoid excessive
lubrication of any item, as this can attract dirt. On hunting bows, avoid lubricants
with obvious odors.
String and Cable Maintenance
Regularly apply a high quality bowstring wax to your string and cable system.
Regular waxing protects your cables and strings from abrasion, wear and separation.
Smear the wax into position. Then, rub it gently with your fingers or a soft piece of
leather to work the wax into the strands. Replace frayed or worn bowstrings and
cables immediately.
Bear Archery strongly recommends replacing the bowstring and cable annually.
Please visit your local Bear Archery dealer for assistance.

CAM ADJUSTMENTS
- Adjusting Draw Length -
Synchronized EKO Cam Systems
The Synchronized EKO cam has a draw stop and rotating module for draw length
adjustment. All draw length adjustments can be made without the use of a bow
press. Draw length changes are made by simply moving the draw stop to the
desired position, then rotating the modules accordingly. See draw length settings
on the following page.
To change draw length, draw stops must be adjusted before the module. Remove
the draw stop on both the top and bottom cam and remount it in the corresponding
stop locations to the draw length and letoff percentage you selected. Not only
is stop location crucial, but ‘+/-’ orientation is important to determine letoff
percentage. Next, remove the socket head cap screws from the top and bottom
modules, rotate the modules to the desired positions (line up the indicator mark
on the cam with the correct draw length indicator mark on the module), making
sure to align the top and bottom to the same setting, and reapply the screws.
Such module draw length adjustments will not affect peak draw weight or timing.
Modules are right and left hand specific and top and bottom specific.
In order for the Synchronized EKO cam system to operate at maximum efficiency the
timing needs to be set correctly. This means that the top and bottom cams roll over
and hit their respective draw stops at the same time. The cam timing is set during
assembly at the factory, but once the bow is broken in, or if you change strings/
cables it is possible that the cam timing will need to be checked.
If the cam system is out of time and the top stop hits before the bottom stop, add
twists into the up cable until both stops hit at the same time. If the cam system is
out of time, and the bottom stop hits before the top stop, add twists to the down
cable until both stops hit at the same time. The same affect could be achieved by
taking twists out of the opposite cable in each scenario. The high quality string
materials used on your Bear Bow will exhibit very little stretch and should maintain
proper timing for extended periods under normal use. Bear Archery recommends
checking the timing and tune of your bow after the first 250 shots. During this
initial break in period, your strings are capable of minor stretching which may affect
your tune.

The Synchronized Hybrid cam has a rotating module for draw length adjustment.
All draw length adjustments can be made without the use of a bow press. Draw
length changes are made by simply rotating the modules to the desired position and
moving the draw stop. To change draw length, remove the socket head cap screws
from the top and bottom modules, rotate the modules to the desired positions
(line up the indicator mark on the cam with the correct draw length indicator mark
on the module), making sure to align the top and bottom to the same setting, and
reapply the screws. Next, remove the draw stop on both the top and bottom cam
and remount it in the corresponding stop locations to the draw length you selected.
Such module draw length adjustments will not affect peak draw weight or timing.
Modules are right and left hand specific and top and bottom specific.
In order for the Synchronized Hybrid cam system to operate at maximum efficiency
the timing needs to be set correctly. This means that the top and bottom cams
roll over and hit their respective draw stops at the same time. The cam timing is
set during assembly at the factory, but once the bow is broken in, or if you change
strings/cables it is possible that the cam timing will need to be checked.

17 The DHC-XR cams have 3 different draw length ranges:
In RANGE “1”, the draw length will be 26.5-31 inches
In RANGE “2”, the draw length will be 22-26 inches
In RANGE “3”, the draw length will be 18-21.5 inches
1. Remove the bottom module from the cam.
2. Place the bow in a press and loosen the strings and cables slightly.
3. Remove the two screws that hold the “Range Hub” to the main cam body. Note that
the longer screw threads into the cable post of the hub, and the shorter screw threads
directly into the hub.

184. Rotate the hub to the desired range setting and replace the two screws.
5. While the bow is still in the press, set the “Control Cable Post” on the top cam to
the same range setting as the bottom cam. This will ensure that the cam timing is
correct.
6. Remove the bow from the press and double check that all cables and strings are in
the correct position.
7. Re-install the bottom module at the desired draw length setting, and adjust the top
module to the same draw length setting. Both the bottom and top modules should
be set to the same desired draw length setting. All draw length settings within each
range can be adjusted without a press.
As shown in the pictures, the RANGE HUB and CONTROL CABLE POST are both set to
RANGE “1” and the bottom and top draw length modules are set to 31. This means the
bow’s DRAW LENGTH is 31 inches. Both the bottom and top modules should be set
to the same desired draw length setting.

Cruzer G3 is adjustable in 1/2” inch increments.
Royale package comes with adjustment modules for 1” inch adjustment.
To replace the cam modules, first remove the two button head cap screws, allowing the
module to rotate freely about the center bushing. Apply pressure to one side, while
rotating the other side off of the cam as seen on the next page. Next, place the new
module around the center bushing and rotate the module while applying a small force
toward the center bushing until the module snaps into place. A module seated correctly
will display screw holes as the module rotates. Replace screws at the desired draw
length and repeat process for the opposite cam.

CAM ADJUSTMENTS
- Adjusting Draw Length -
Single Cam Systems
The rotating module cam system allows the bow to be adjusted to all of its draw length
positions without the use of separate individual modules and does not require a bow
press for draw length adjustments at 1/2” increments. Draw length changes are made
by first removing the socket head cap screws that secure the rotating module unit.
Next, rotate the module until the desired module draw length module tick mark is lined
up with the cam tick mark, and reinstall the screws in the corresponding holes. Such
draw length adjustments will not affect peak draw weight. When the rotating module
unit is repositioned to adjust draw length, the draw stop must also be moved to the
corresponding setting marked on the cam. The limb stop can then be installed at the
corresponding draw length location if desired. A limb stop provides a harder back wall to
the valley and is strictly shooter preference. The limb stop is not required to shoot the
bow.

28INITIAL BOW SETUP
Before you can safely and effectively shoot your bow, a number of specific initial
bow setup steps must be taken. These steps can be performed on your own, if your
level of expertise is adequate. Or, your local Bear Archery dealer can help you.
Arrow Rest Installation & Setup
Arrow rests should be installed according to the manufacturer’s specifications. The
first adjustment you need to perform is setting the vertical height of your arrow
rest. When properly adjusted, your arrow rest should align the centerline of the
arrow with the center of the two holes used to mount the rest to the riser. To check
this, place an arrow in the rest and nocked on the string. Visually confirm the center
of the arrow passes directly through the center of the arrow rest mounting holes
when viewed from the side. If not, adjust your rest up or down to correct.
Next, the rest should be adjusted for proper “Center shot”. With an arrow in the
rest and nocked on the string, firmly hold another arrow against the inside of the
riser near the arrow rest mounting holes as illustrated. Look down the arrows
and verify that the arrows are parallel to each other. In other words, the spacing
between the two arrows should be the same along the entire length of the arrows.
If not, adjust your rest side to side to correct. This is only your “initial” center shot
and additional fine tuning may be required depending on your shooting style and
equipment. Please refer to the images on the next page for further reference.
Nocking Point and Nock Adjustment
Now that the initial center shot setting is complete, you need to verify your arrow
nocking point. Install the nocking point or string loop on the bowstring so that when
an arrow is nocked it creates a 90 degree angle to the string. Another option is to
use a process similar to the one used to determine center shot. With an arrow in
the rest and nocked on the string, firmly hold another arrow against the shelf of the
riser as illustrated. Look down the arrows and verify that the arrows are parallel.
In other words, the spacing between the two arrows should be the same along the
entire length of the arrows. If not, adjust your nocking point up or down to correct.
At this time, adjust arrow fletch position to correspond with the arrow rest you are
using. Such adjustments are done by simply rotating or replacing the arrow’s nock.
Carefully position the nock to provide proper fletch clearance through the arrow
rest. Your local Bear Archery dealer can show you how to do this or can provide the
service for you. Please refer to the images on the next page for further reference.
Install All Accessories
After your arrow rest and nocking point are installed correctly you will need to
install all other accessories such as sights, quivers, silencers, peep sights, stabilizers,
etc. Before mounting ANY accessories to the limbs, Refer to page 3 for important
limb information.
29INITIAL BOW SETUP
Place arrow firmly
against inside of riser
shown.
Arrow rest should
support the arrow in
such a way that the
arrow’s centerline
passes directly
through the center
of the two arrow rest
mounting holes.
Arrows should be
parallel along their
entire length.

31INITIAL BOW SETUP
Sight Adjustment
When first sighting in your new bow or bow sight, the key thing to remember is
“Chase the arrows”. In other words, if your arrows are hitting the target to the right
of the bull’s-eye, move your sight to the right. If the arrows hit low on the target,
lower your sight.
Arrow
Group
In the picture above, the arrows are hitting the target low and to the right of the
bull’s-eye. To correct this, adjust your sight down and to the right. Remember,
“Chase the arrows.”
32ARROW SELECTION
Arrow selection depends on the peak draw weight, let-off and draw length settings
of your bow. Refer to arrow manufacturer’s arrow selection tables using this
information. The International Bowhunters Organization (IBO) allows a minimum
of five grains arrow weight per pound of peak weight. Arrow weight is the total
combined weight of your arrow nock, fletching, insert, and point or broadhead. To
determine the lightest arrow you can safely shoot, use the following format:
Multiply by
Minimum Safe
Peak Draw
X 5 Grains =
Arrow Weight
Weight(Lb)
per Pound
(Grains)
Shooting arrows below these minimum weight requirements will void the warranty.
Using arrows below five grains per pound of peak weight can approach dry-fire
conditions and can severely reduce the life of your bow, and may cause serious
injury. Contact your local Bear Archery pro shop or arrow manufacturers for arrow
selection recommendations.
The weight of the arrow you select can be determined as follows:
1. From an arrow chart, find the weight of your arrow shaft
based on the size and length.
2. Add the weight of your broadhead or point.
3. Add 35 grains to cover the nock, insert, and fletching.
For example:
Arrow Point Total
Other
+ + =
400-30” Mag 125 Weight
(+35 Gr)
240 Gr (+125 Gr) (=400 Gr)
NOTE: It is always best to use a grain scale when available.
