This install is designed to be simple and secure. You’ll clamp the system to the headrest bars, connect the center arm, position it so the bow sits straight, then tighten everything down.
You can tighten the screws by hand, or use a 5/32 Allen wrench if you prefer.
Important: Do not over-tighten screws. Snug and secure is all that’s needed.
Step 1 — Get the headrest bars ready
- Make sure the two metal headrest bars are accessible.
- If needed, raise the headrest slightly so you have room to work.
- Loosen the clamp screws so the clamps can Twist and lock on easily.
Tip: You do not need to remove the headrest.

Step 3 — Attach the ANKR-POINT™ Support Arm

- Loosen the adjustment screw, and move the adjustable support arm outward until it lines up with the ANKR-POINT™ Bow Grip where you want to attach them together.
- Seat the arm fully so the system forms one solid bridge between the two attachments.
