Awshucks,
Htoler is correct. Your cables are under tension and trying to pull "up". The cble saver or cable slide keeps the cables seperates and from rubbing the underside of the barrel. Some crossbows have them and some do not. It depends on the design and the material the barrel is made of as well as the material of the cable. You will get instructions of where and how to install the cable slide/saver.
