Pack-N-Go Bow Press — Setup & Operating Instructions

Unboxing Your Pack-N-Go Press

Main press body with hand crank installed

Two press arms with sliding finger blocks

Four press fingers

One draw-stop finger

Four mounting bolts with washers

Compact carrying case

Mounting & Setup

Choose a sturdy, level surface capable of supporting load and torque

Attach the mounting brackets to the base of the press using the supplied bolts and washers

For a permanent bench setup, mount using lag bolts for secure installation

For temporary setups, use heavy-duty C-clamps and check tightness frequently

Confirm that the press sits level and stable before inserting a bow

Pro Tip: The Pack-N-Go works perfectly with the LCA Portable Bench Mount for quick, non-permanent use

Assembly for Travel or Storage

Slide both press arms into the main body

Slide pins in the main body of the press lock the arms and the rest of the press together

To disassemble for travel, loosen the pins, press the spring pins, and pull out

Store all components inside the compact carrying case

Installing & Adjusting the Press Fingers

Press the spring-steel tab and slide each finger into its rail slot

Adjust finger spacing to match the bow’s limb pocket width

Use the rear thumb screws to fine-tune limb-tip contact

Ensure each finger sits flush on the limb surface

Confirm even pressure across all four fingers

Mark rail positions for faster reassembly on future bows

Placing the Bow in the Press

Rotate the hand crank to open the press arms until adequate clearance is available

Center the bow so both limb tips rest evenly on the fingers

Ensure the riser is straight and level before tightening

Turn the crank slowly until the press fingers make light, even contact with the limbs

Verify that strings, cables, and cams are clear from interference

Safety Tip: Never force a bow into position — the crank provides controlled, smooth pressure

Pressing the Bow

With the bow centered and supported, rotate the hand crank clockwise to compress the limbs

Stop when the string and cables are relaxed enough for maintenance

Perform tuning adjustments, string and cable replacement, peep installation, and general service

Rotate the crank counter-clockwise slowly to release pressure until limbs return fully to rest

After Use & Maintenance

Clean the press after each use

Apply light lubrication to the lead-screw threads

Check bolts, spring pins, knobs, and arms for wear or looseness

Inspect finger pins and contact points regularly

Store the press disassembled inside the carrying case for travel

Press binds when turning — contact LCA
