The Synergy Universal Cam is the most advanced entry-level two-cam system available. Both draw weight and
Synergy Universal 2-Cam System
draw length adjustments are incorporated into the design and can be changed without the use of a bow press.
The system comes with three pairs of modules (8912, 8913 and 8914) that allow 6 different draw length settings
and 3 different weight settings. Each system will function on both right-handed and left-handed bows. The
illustration below will show a right-handed installation. Left-handed will be mirror image of all diagrams.
Each cam is marked “RHT/LHB” (Right-Hand Top or Left-Hand Bottom) or “RHB/LHT” (Right-Hand Bottom or
Left-Hand Top) for easy identification.
1. Selecting the draw length setting: From the charts provided, select the Module size needed
for the desired draw length. For example, a 28” Nova uses a #8 module. From the table below,
select the module required. For the 28” Nova the 8914 Module is used in the flipped over position.
Place module on the cam but do not install the screws at this point.

2. Selecting the draw weight setting: From the charts provided, select the draw weight desired.
For example, a 28” Nova with a 65-pound peak draw weight would use the “M” (Medium) setting.
With the module in the proper position on the cam, move the module until the hole marked “M” i n
the module is aligned with the threaded hole in the cam, as shown below. Secure the module to the
cam in two places with the washers and screws provided. Repeat this operation for the cam on the
other end of the bow. Weight adjustments can also be made by turning the limb bolts either in or
out. NEVER TURN THE LIMB BOLT OUT MORE THAN 4 TURNS FROM THE FULLY
BOTTOMED POSITION.

3. NOTES: When changing weight using module adjustments, the following can be expected:
from Light “L” to Medium “M”, draw length increased by ¼”. From Medium “M” to Heavy “H”, draw
length increases ¼”. Be aware that let-off varies with draw length changes. Some variations in Letoff, length of “valley” and firmness of “wall” may occur when changing module settings.
