LEGEND ULTRA LITE ASSEmBLy
The Legend Ultra Lite is easy to assemble.
Basically, all you have to do is bolt the bow assembly
to the stock assembly, install the foot stirrup and you
are ready to shoot. Once assembled correctly, your
crossbow is pre-sighted for 20-yards.
Lay out the contents of your crossbow box in front
of you. Be certain the box contains all of the following
items before beginning assembly (photo 1):
• One (1) complete stock assembly
• One (1) complete bow assembly
• One (1) cable saver
• One (1) VIBRA-CUSH™ (pre-installed at factory)
• One (1) foot stirrup
• One (1) owner’s manual pack with warranty card,
main assembly bolt, sample tube of oil and tools.

ASSEmBLy STEPS
1. Attach the cable saver to the cables. Note: Do not attach the bow assembly to the stock
assembly without the cable saver – cable damage will occur and the crossbow will be
unsafe to shoot.
• When viewing the cable saver from the side, with its “dish” (concave surface) facing up,
notice that one of the two cable notches is positioned deeper into the cable saver (closer
to the “dish”) than the other.
• Because the cables cross, one rests on top of the other. The top cable goes into the deeper
of the two cable saver notches and the bottom cable goes into the shallower cable saver
notch (photo 2), allowing the cable saver to maintain a relatively level position on top of the
two cables.
• Before sliding the cable saver into the barrel’s cable slot,
3
apply a small amount of wax, such as Horton's String Wax
and Conditioner (HCA-11015-H), to the “dish”
(concave surface) or top of the cable saver (the part that
comes in contact with the underside of the barrel’s arrow
flight groove).
2. Attach the bow assembly to the stock assembly
as follows:
• Position the bowstring on top of the barrel’s ight deck
The bow string sits on the barrel’s
flight deck while the cable saver
and cables slide into the cable slot.
while you insert the cable saver (concave side up) and
the cables into the barrel’s cable slot. The cable
saver’s concave groove (“dish”) should mate with the
5
underside of the barrel’s arrow ight groove (photo 3).
2
Make certain your cables go
into the correct slots in your
cable saver.
4
The VIBRA-CUSH goes between
the riser and the barrel, cutout
side facing the barrel.
• Ensure that the pre-installed VIBRA-CUSH is in place
with its cutout side facing the barrel (photo 4).
• Pull the bow assembly toward the trigger assembly until
the riser location rod, protruding from the front of the
barrel and through the VIBRA-CUSH, mates with the
hole in the riser. Do not twist or rock the bow assembly to
the extent that you rub the cables along the slightly sharp
edges of the barrel’s cable slot. You do not want to cut
any of your cable strands. Pulling up and back slightly
on the bowstring may assist you in seating the bow
assembly onto the stock assembly (photo 5).
• After you make sure the main assembly bolt’s locking
setscrew is loosened, insert the main assembly bolt.
You may need to use your free hand to lift the string off
the barrel (sometimes as much as an inch) until the hole
in the end of the riser rod and the assembly bolt hole in
the riser are perfectly aligned. Then, finger-tighten the
bolt at least a few turns.
• Finish tightening the bolt using your Allen wrench while
continuing to lift the string off the barrel (photo 6).
If the alignment is correct, you will have no difculty.
Do not use a cheater-bar when tightening the main
assembly bolt.
Pull up and back slightly on the bow string to seat the bow assembly.

Note: To avoid excessive serving wear, you may need to tighten the bolt a bit
7
more until you relieve the excessive string pressure. If the main assembly bolt
is not tight enough, there will be excess serving wear on the string. You cannot
tighten the main assembly bolt enough by hand to break it!
• Insert the foot stirrup into the two receiving holes located at the front of the
riser. Make sure the “valley” in the stirrup’s foot-pad points down so that it
does not block the arrow’s ight path.
Once the foot stirrup is in place, tighten all three
setscrews.
Tighten the setscrews located on the bottom of the riser to lock the main assembly bolt and the foot stirrup in place (photo 7).
• You are now ready to test-re your crossbow and ne-tune your sights (See appropriate Cocking, Loading & Sighting
sections in the General Owner’s Instruction Manual).

stud and pan-head screw from. Align the mounting bracket either facing the left or
right side of the crossbow, based on personal preference.
• Insert and tighten the two ¼ - 20 x ¾'' Pan-head screws into the same holes you
5
removed the sling stud and barrel screw from (photo 5). Use a

ADJUST CHEEK PIECE & BUTT PLATE
The Legend Ultra Lite is equipped with a rubber cheek piece that adjusts to any of seven xed
positions to create perfect eye-level alignment, and a butt plate that adjusts to one of three
xed positions to match up perfectly with the shooter’s length-of-pull.
Cheek Piece Adjustment:
1. To adjust the cheek piece, remove both 3⁄16'' x ½'' shoulder screws using a 3⁄32'' Allen wrench.
2. Slide the cheek piece over the desired alignment holes to create your perfect eye-level
alignment (photo 1).
3. Replace the screws once you have the proper adjustment for your shooting needs.

and thumb safely below the flight deck while shooting. The wings
are bedded between the fore-grip and barrel. If for any reason
they are lost or damaged, contact Horton for replacement
