squeek

[wcbarker]

When I cock my bow it squeeks I think it is the wheels against the bow. Do I just wax where the wheels run??????????

[Big John]

The Brass "wheels" should not touch the bow. If so, use a thicker rope. The wheels should ride on the rope only.

If a problem, show a pic. And is your cocker rope factory or aftermarket.?

[wcbarker]

The wheels on my rope cocker I think are rubber.

[Mo wannabe]

Which bow is it ?

[wcbarker]

Exocet 200

[Boo]

Sometimes the squeak can come from between the stock and the rail. It might be a good idea to do a nut and bolt check.

[wcbarker]

Ok I will check tomorrow

Do you by chance have one of the Parker bow cocking ropes with the rubber wheels that ride against the rail?

[wcbarker]

Yup that's what I got. And it is very loud when I cock it.
How do I fix the problem?????

Use ear plugs until you get yourself a excalibur rope cocker

Can you press the brass pins out enough to apply some silicon lube on em? Just a dab may quite em down for you.

Good one.
I bought this bow used just to see if I would like it.
I have hunted with everything else so thought I would give this a try.
What is the Excalibur cocking aid wheels made of.
I will try to find one.
Going to Wyoming Wednesday to shoot antelope.
Might not have time to get one for this trip, will try Cabelas at Billings.

Try a little 3 in 1 oil on a small craft paint brush an lube the pins a touch.

They are a nice cocker with those roller wheels riding the rail, my wife uses one. The shop where she bought it had one for the range that squeaked bad.

I took the pins outta one of my four cocker ropes an polished em up with a drill an 1200 grit emery paper.
