How the OnneX Resistance Works

The OnneX Resistance operates by setting it to your holding weight plus a certain amount of differential. This is most effectively achieved with the use of the Trainer Lock Pin to safely set the release to your specifications. To reset the hook, push the thumb barrel forward. When drawing your bow, keep the thumb barrel down to engage the safety. At full draw, release the safety and start adding weight by employing back tension and pulling through the shot. The release will activate as soon as you exceed the firing differential.

Activation Tension and Firing Differential:
Activation tension is the pressure needed to activate the release at full draw, while firing differential refers to the disparity between your bow's holding weight and activation tension. For instance, if your holding weight is 17 pounds and you require 19 pounds of activation tension for the release to fire, the firing differential is 2 pounds.

Setting the Activation Tension:
You'll need a 5/64 Allen key for this adjustment. Locate the screw to adjust the activation tension between the thumb barrel and finger piece. Increase tension by turning the screw clockwise in 1/8 turn increments and decrease it by turning counterclockwise. Test the release after each 1/8 turn adjustment until you reach your preferred settings. Factory settings typically set activation tension to 17 pounds, given that most archers have holding weights between 10 and 20 pounds.

CAUTION:
It's crucial to maintain firm rearward pressure on the safety lever throughout the draw cycle. Releasing pressure from the lever during the draw could result in accidental firing, leading to potential injury or property damage. Avoid adjusting the tension so lightly that accidental firing occurs. After each adjustment, test the setting cautiously for at least 10 consecutive shots.

Adjusting the Thumb Knob:
Use a 5/64 Allen key for this adjustment. The thumb barrel is fully adjustable for height, angle, and tilt. Follow the instructions to adjust it to your preference.

Use of the Trainer Lock Pin:
The Trainer Lock Pin aids in safe training by preventing accidental firing while allowing the rest of the release to function normally. Install the pin according to your handedness preference, and always nock an arrow and aim in a safe direction when using it.

Changing Your Finger Extension:
The OnneX Thumb release includes two articulating finger extensions offering three or four finger options and a 30-degree sweep adjustability range. Swap extensions easily using a 5/64 Allen key.
