Loose trigger
I was checking the screws to make sure they were tight and noticed the trigger assembly had a jiggle in it.
Tried to tighten the screw in front of the trigger but it was tight. Is there something else I should be looking for to tighten?

Re: Loose trigger
Trigger has two screws holding iit in,you have to remove the rail from the stock to get at them.
Re: Loose trigger
Loose trigger screws will ruin your day. Try a dab of blue Loc-tite on both.......

youll need to remove the two screws that hold your stock to the rail then work the rail out of the stock being careful not to bend the trigger ..then you'll see the two screws holding your trigger unit to the rail..
remove those one at a time and add a very small amount of blue loc tite to the threads of each screw. Retighten, install stock. your done..

Re: Loose trigger
Here you go....
Looking at the bottom of the crossbow you will see two allen screws, one in the forestock and one directly in front of the trigger (there is an access hole through the trigger guard, at least on my Equinox). Remove both screws.
During this procedure remember location of all screws when taking them out. Lengths will vary.
Now the rail/trigger/arrow retainer/scope/limb assembly is ready to be disassembled from the stock. Do not peel away the stock from the rail assembly like one would peel a banana. The stock will catch the end of the trigger and probably will bend it. What you want to do is remove the stock from the rail assembly by moving the stock straight down from it. This can easily be done by holding the rail assembly in one hand and slapping the stock straight down with the other. I do this just above and in the middle of a table so the stock doesn’t have far to go.
Turn the rail assembly upside down on the table. The trigger/arrow retainer/scope assembly is attached to the end of the rail by two allen screws. One is right at the end of the rail and the other is in front of the trigger lever. You might have to move the trigger lever back to see it. There is a third screw directly behind the trigger lever. This holds the trigger lever to the trigger assembly. Leave this one alone. Tighten the two screws holding the trigger to the rail.
Put the stock back on and you will be good to go. I actually did this recently to install a TriggerTech red trigger lever. After putting the stock back on I went to the range to make sure the scope was still dead on. It was.
Hope this helps.

Re: Loose trigger
Just an up date on tightening the trigger. It was very simple and I had it done and sighted in in about an hour .
Going to have to save my penny's for trigger tech trigger now .
I set up all my buddy's bows and this is way simpler to work on.
Something to be said about keep it simple.
