    Changing draw weight

    I know how to do it, my question is how to make sure you let top n bottom out equally?

    I use a ratchet wrench with an allen socket. Set the wrench at a reference point where you can do equal twists.

      couldn't you tighten the limbs all the way down and then back off equally?

          Mark the bolt and observe full turns?

            I put a small drop of white-out as a reference point on the same spot on both limb bolts with the limb bolts tightened all the way down - but not too tight. I then loosen alternating between each limb bolt no more than one full rotation at a time.

              I use masking tape on each bolt and out a sharpie mark on it for reference. Easy to do everything a quarter turn at a time then.

                  Just tighten until the bottom out and then do half turns from there. Marking is a pain...

                    I do 2 things:

                    1) using the wrench I make 1/4 turns at a time on BOTH.
                    2) check tiller with a bow square.

                        Not too right equals hand tight but don't bear down on the wrench?

                          One full turn out is one full turn out. Close counts when your doing this., not to worry, good Luck. Paul

                            Right is supposed to be tight in this post.
