OWNER’S
MANUAL

Please take the time to read these instructions carefully and to
familiarize yourself with all the parts. Please see page 6 for a
reference to the bow anatomy.
STEP ONE
Un-box everything and nd all the parts. Here is a list:
• 1 Bow handle (Ambidextrous)
• 2 Fiberglass bow limbs with bow tips and limb jambs afxed
• 1 Bow string with nger guards already in place
• 1 Arrow rest (attached to bow handle already)
• 1 Quiver clip (capacity 3 arrows)
• 3 FBP “Impact” arrows
• 1 Hex wrench
• 2 Set screws (which are already screwed into the bow handle)
STEP TWO
Find the set screws in the bow and use your hex wrench to back them out so
that no part of them is extending inside the bow handle (this allows the limb
jamb to push all the way in without obstruction).
STEP THREE
Assemble one bow limb by
pushing the limb jam in as
far as they will go into the
bow handle. Make sure the
deeper hole on the limb
jamb is facing toward the set
screw which is already in the
bow handle. Tighten the set
screw so it is ush with the
handle. Do not over tighten.
(NOTE: Set screw hardware
may be different from
picture)
STEP FOUR
Repeat Step 3, but make sure the bow limb is symmetrical with the other bow
limb so the Bow Tips face the same direction (otherwise you wont be able to
string your bow). Tighten the set screw so it is ush with the handle. Do not
over tighten. (NOTE: Set screw hardware may be different from picture)
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

STEP FIVE
Now the fun part... String your bow.
Find a surface that is soft or forgiving
so it wont damage your bow tip. Grass,
carpet, even the top of your shoe!
As seen in picture [A], loop your bow
string onto the BOTTOM bow tip (that
will be on the ground).
Now, as seen in picture [B], put the
tip you just strung onto the ground
so you can push on it without it sliding
around (very important).
Carefully bend the other bow tip toward
the other bow string loop and hook it to
the bow tip. Release the pressure and
your bow should be strung.
STEP SIX
The Arrow Clip will be challenging to
clip on at rst. It is designed to be for
both left or right handed archers. When
you clip it, it should be on the top portion
of the bow and on the other side
of your hand grip. To clip it on,
hold the bow rmly
and snap in the
tooth of the clip,
then pinch the other
side and pull across
to clip it in to the
other side.

CAREFULLY READ this owners manual before handling or shooting your
new Faux Bow™ PRO (FBP). By not doing so, somebody could be injured or
the bow could be damaged.
WARNING: Do not make any adjustments or modications to your bow.
WARNING: Eye protection is recommended.
WARNING: Never shoot your bow using anything but ofcial FBP arrows.
WARNING: Never shoot a damaged FBP arrow. Inspect your arrows for
damage before and after each use. Discard all damaged arrows.
WARNING: Never shoot a bow that has been damaged in any way. If any
part of the FBP shows wear or damage, do not shoot it. If any part of the
bowstring is fraying or shows signs of wear, replace it ASAP and do not use it
to shoot with.
WARNING: This is the big one. Many people new to archery do not know
this. Never draw or shoot your bow without an ofcial FBP arrow knocked
on it. Many bad things can happen. The FBP is designed to be shot with the
resistance and draw length of the FBP arrow. Pulling the bow back without
an arrow will result in “overdrawing” your FBP and could snap the handle and
injure somebody. Don’t do it!
WARNING: Never expose your bowstring to sharp objects or open heat
sources like a ame that can compromise it, creating a weak point causing it
to break.
WARNING: Never expose your FBP to extreme heat or prolonged moisture.
Damage can occur to your FBP or bowstring from heat exposure, prolonged
moisture exposure, or improper storage. Never leave your “strung bow” in a
car as it will overheat and cause the bow limbs to weaken or break.

HOW TO SHOOT YOUR NEW
FAUX BOW™ PRO
Shooting any bow is a skill that cannot be demonstrated correctly in an
owner’s manual. There are many great websites that can give you general
instructions about body stance and foot position. They can show you how to
grip the handle and draw an arrow correctly. Your FBP is designed to allow
you to practice almost all of these archery techniques. Please spend some
time online accessing these resources so that you can learn the proper
way to shoot a bow. One little hint: There is a marking on your bowstring
that should be the string center. Periodically check to make sure your nger
guards have not shifted and re-center them as needed.
NOTE: Your Arrows should never be shot into a solid surface like a brick
wall. Your targets should be movable so your arrows won’t buckle. For
example a blanket, sheet, or a soda bottle.
OTHER SAFETY TIPS
Your new FBP is a real bow and should be treated as such. It requires
special care and handling to achieve and maintain its performance. The
string is under extreme tension, which creates an incredible source of
energy that should not be taken for granted. ADULT SUPERVISION OF
ALL CHILDREN IS RECOMMENDED. We have designed your bow to be
a safe and fun product, however, as with any shooting style product, safety
rules must be observed. It is HIGHLY recommended that these rules be read
before using any bow. Bows and arrows are NOT toys. For maximum safety
and enjoyment, always exercise caution and common sense when shooting
any bow.
ALWAYS use an appropriate backstop for maximum safety. An appropriate
backstop must be constructed and must extend beyond the perimeter of
the target. The recommended backstop size is determined by the accuracy
and ability of the shooter. With a low level of shooter accuracy, the backstop
perimeter requirement must be increased appropriately.
NEVER aim or draw any bow in the direction of a person or animal. Aim and
draw ONLY in the direction of an appropriate target. ALWAYS have a full view
of the path to and beyond the target when shooting.
ALWAYS check all FBP arrow components prior to shooting, including nock
and tip. Loose components can cause unbalanced arrow ight and partial dry
ring of the bow. If a FBP arrow has been damaged, or if you believe it has
been damaged, do not shoot it again.

Any alteration of the FBP may cause serious injury to the user. Don’t do it!
After your done shooting and storing your FBP:
It is extremely important that you remove the bowstring while you are not
using the bow. This will prolong the life of the bow arms and bow handle as
well as the bow string. Failure to do so may eventually lead to failure of one
of the parts, potentially becoming a hazard.
Never leave your bow strung, especially in a hot
enviroment. Doing so may damage the bow.
Please make sure you remove the string in
between uses to increase your bow’s longevity.
Some parts, colors, and pictures
may be different between the
product, box, and manual.
This may be because at the time
of printing, certain parts were
not available so we made
substitutions to be able to
ship on time.
