A damaged arrow could break upon release and injure you or a bystander. You must carefully inspect each arrow shaft, nock and other components before each shot to see that they have not been damaged. Before shooting, look closely for nicks, cracks, splits, dents or other marks that could indicate damage to the arrow. When checking carbon arrows, perform the following additional tests: 1. Grasp the shaft just above the point and below the nock, then flex the arrow in an arc (bending it away from you and others) with a deflection of 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm), and listen for cracking noises. Perform this test four to six times, rotating the arrow slightly between each flex until you have gone around the entire arrow. If you hear or feel cracking, the carbon has been damaged. 2. While still holding the point and fletching ends, twist the shaft in both directions. If the arrow relaxes or twists easily, the carbon has been damaged. If an arrow has been damaged, or if you believe it has been damaged, do not shoot it again, as it could break on release, and sharp arrow pieces could hit and injure you or someone nearby. EASTON SHAFT PREPARATION AND ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Refer to Easton s Arrow Tuning and Maintenance Guide for complete shaft and assembly instructions. Available from Easton at FOR ALL SHAFT TYPES Cut shafts to length using only a high-speed abrasive wheel cut-off tool designated for arrow shafts. Never use rotary tube cutters, a hacksaw or methods that can damage the tube and leave a rough cut. Lightly chamfer the inside of the shaft, just enough to remove any burrs. Thoroughly clean the inside of the shaft with a cotton swab wetted with 1% to % isopropyl alcohol (not rubbing alcohol, which can contain oil). CAUTIONS: Always wear a NIOSH approved dust mask and safety glasses when cutting any arrow shafts. Be sure to use a dust collector to vacuum up all of the carbon and/or aluminum dust when cutting arrow shafts. ALUMINUM and ALUMINUM/CARBON SHAFTS POINT AND INSERT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Hot Melt Adhesive (Installing POINTS) Do not apply heat directly to the shaft. 1. Heat a stick of Easton Hot Melt adhesive over a small gas flame until the adhesive is fluid. Use only Easton hot melt adhesive. 2. Apply a small ring of molten adhesive on the shaft end, just inside the shaft.. To prevent over-heating A/C shafts, hold the point head in your fingers and carefully heat the shank end of the point or insert over a gas flame for 5 to 6 seconds. Be careful not to burn your fingers. (For aluminum shafts, pliers may be used to hold components, as overheating will happen less with the more conductive aluminum.) WARNING: OVER-HEATING SHAFT WILL VOID WARRANTY. 4. Apply a film of adhesive completely around the entire shank of the point or insert. 5. Put the point or insert about 1 4" into the end of the shaft. 6. Reheat the point for no more than 5 seconds to fully melt the adhesive.. Without delay, slowly push the point into the shaft until it seats against the end of the shaft. Rotate point 1 or 2 revolutions while still warm. DO NOT FORCE A COMPONENT INTO THE SHAFT. Apply a little more heat to the POINT ONLY if the point hangs up during this step. 8. Immediately, while adhesive is soft, wipe off any excess adhesive with a cloth or paper towel. Allow air-cooling in a point-down position. Bowhunting Precautions Carbon arrows may be used for hunting if special precautions are taken. Carbon arrow shafts used in bowhunting could break after being shot into a big game animal. This arrow breakage may be caused by the angle in which the arrow impacts the animal, or by the reaction of the animal itself such as rolling on the shaft or hitting against a tree. The break may be inside the animal and may not be immediately obvious after recovery of the animal. When a carbon arrow breaks, it tends to shatter with the resulting creation of many sharp, splinter-like fragments. These fragments can be harmful to humans if ingested; therefore, when game is recovered, the hunter should always carefully determine whether the arrow has broken inside the animal. If the arrow has broken, follow the instructions below: 1. Use extreme caution when removing broken segments of the carbon arrow shaft. 2. When field dressing game animals, use care to avoid splinters of carbon fiber.. Carefully remove the flesh in the area of the wounds. It may contain carbon fiber, particularly at the entry and exit points. 4. Thoroughly clean the surrounding area of the wound and inspect for the presence of carbon fragments. 5. Carefully dispose of any meat that might contain carbon splinters. Do not leave for scavengers to eat.. INSERTS: Use the same procedure as described. Install an RPS point into the insert prior to installation for ease of handling. FOR C2 AND ALL-CARBON SHAFTS *(EXCEPT AXIS) - EPOXY INSTALLATION OF COMPONENTS OR FOR INSTALLATION OF COMPOSITE INSERTS IN ALL TYPES OF SHAFT MATERIAL. 1. AAE brand epoxy or M DP0 24-hour cure flexible two-part epoxies are recommended. 2. Apply a small ring of adhesive, just inside the end of the shaft and a generous coating on the entire shank of the point or insert.. Slowly twist the point or insert into shaft and seat it against end of shaft. 4. Wipe off any excess adhesive with a cloth or paper towel. 5. Stand the shaft vertically on the point or insert to cure. Be sure epoxy does not flow into insert threads. 6. This is a permanent installation, and inserts cannot be removed without damaging the shaft. ALUMINUM, A/C and *CARBON SHAFTS UNI BUSHING INSTALLATION 1. AAE Fastset or other gel-type cyanoacrylate cements are recommended. 2. Apply a thin ring of adhesive completely around the inside diameter of the shaft within 1 16 from the open end.. Insert UNI Bushing and quickly seat completely against end of shaft. 4. Stand shaft with UNI Bushing upright. *ST AXIS and HIT INSERT COMPONENTS For ST Axis, see shaft preparation and assembly instructions packaged with the arrows. Use epoxy packaged with components. LIMITED WARRANTY The Easton arrow shaft limited warranty covers any defects in material and/or workmanship for one year from date of purchase. It does not cover damage caused by impact from another arrow, impact with hard objects, improper cleaning or fletching, or from normal wear. Warranty does not apply if damage results from any non-compliance of printed instructions. Arrow shafts that are defective will be replaced by your local dealer or by Easton. 22 2

14 SPINE AND WEIGHT COMPARISON CHART No other company offers such a comprehensive array of arrow sizes and spines to fit every setup. Our Comparison Chart illustrates the spine and weight relationship of all sizes using a 2" shaft length. This relationship is comparable for other shaft lengths, as well. The spine (stiffness) of the 2" shaft is defined as the measured deflection (in inches) that results from hanging a 1.4 lb. (880 gram) weight from the center of the shaft that is supported at two points 28" (1. cm) apart. Each different weight group is indicated graphically by a band of shading on the graph. Our Specifications and s Chart show our complete line of hunting arrows, and our Selection Charts on pages 28-2 will help you find the perfect arrow match for your type and style of shooting. ARROW SIZE IDENTIFICATION BOW WEIGHT/SHAFT SPINE RELATIONSHIP Our Spine and Comparison Chart illustrates the spine and weight relationship of all shaft sizes using a 2" shaft length.

15 EASTON HUNTING ARROW SELECTION CHART SELECTING THE CORRECT HUNTING ARROW Our hunting arrow selection chart will help you find the perfect arrow match for your bow. Our published arrow specifications are real; what we say is what you get, and betterno matter what arrow you choose. 1. Determining Correct Hunting Arrow Length Bows with cut-out window. The Correct Hunting Arrow Length for bows with a broadhead cut-out sight window (including bows with overdraws) is determined by drawing back an extra-long arrow to full draw and having someone mark the arrow one to two inches in front of where the arrow contacts the most forward portion of the arrow rest. 1"-2" clearance (minimum) Mark arrow here. Back of bow (far side) Bows without cut-out window. The Correct Hunting Arrow Length for bows without a cut-out sight window (which will not allow a fixed blade broadhead to be drawn past the back of the bow) at full draw, mark an extra-long arrow one to two inches in front of the handle. 1"-2" clearance (minimum) Mark arrow here. Back of bow (far side) Correct Hunting Arrow Length Place where arrow contacts most forward portion of the arrow rest. Belly of bow (face side) Correct Hunting Arrow Length Belly of bow (face side) Note: Correct arrow length is measured from throat (string hole) of the nock to end of the shaft, not including point or insert. Bottom of nock groove. Bottom of nock groove. Bow Draw Length Draw length is measured at full draw from the bottom of the nock groove to the back (far side) of the bow. Actual arrow length and draw length are only the same if the end of the arrow shaft is even with the back of the bow (far side) at full draw. 2. Determining Actual Peak Bow Compound Bows Compound bows must be measured at the peak bow weight as the bow is being drawn and not while letting the bow down. The suggested shaft sizes in the charts were determined using a Standard Setup which includes: Use of a release aid. Compound bow with brace height greater than 61 2". If your setup differs from the Standard Setup, use the Variables (following) to make adjustments to determine the Calculated Peak Bow so the correct arrow size can be selected on the Chart. Variables to the Standard Setup for Compound Bows: Finger release - Add 5 lbs. Bows with brace heights less than 61 2" Add 5 lbs. Overdraw Compound Bows If you are using an overdraw, make the variable calculations (if any), and then modify the Calculated Peak Bow of your bow using the chart below. Length of Overdraw Bow 1" 2" " 4" 5" For 50#-0# Actual /Calculated Peak Bow, 1# # 6# # # add to bow weight.

See Variables on left side of page. USING THE HUNTING ARROW SELECTION CHART 1. Once you have determined your Correct Hunting Arrow Length and Calculated or Actual Peak Bow, you are ready to select your correct shaft size: 1.A Compound bows. In the Calculated Peak Bow column (left-hand side of the CHART), select the column with the type cam on your bow, then the column with the point weight you use. Then locate your Calculated Peak Bow in that column. 1.B Recurve bows and Modern Longbows. In the Actual Peak Bow column (right-hand side of the CHART), select the column with the bow type and then the point weight you use. Next, locate your Actual Peak Bow in that column. 2. Move across that bow weight row horizontally to the column indicating your Correct Arrow Length. Note the letter in the box where your Calculated or Actual Peak Bow row and Correct Hunting Arrow Length column intersect. The box below the CHART with the same letter contains your recommended shaft sizes. Select a shaft from the CHART depending on the shaft material, shaft weight and type of shooting you will be doing. For larger game, you should use heavier shafts. 28 2
