Default RE: Hoyt draw weight maxed at 55lbs

Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.I never mentioned it but I had the same problem last year when I first got the bow the dealer that did the set-up said didn' t put any twists in the bow string and I asked him about the low draw weight, he said it was normal[]. This hoyt dealer is difficult to deal with and gets a attitude if I question any of his advice.I have my own bow press and can do most the maintenance on my bow....replacing serving,paper tuning ect.....After taking a closer look at the buss cables I noticed one cable has no twists in the string and the other cable has a left twist.....Shouldn' t the twisting up a string from the bottom cam always be to the right?.I had a problem with the arrow nocks coming of the bow string while at full draw when I got the bow back with the new string.....after I put a few twists in the bow string it solved that problem.The Dual track idler wheel has marks scribed on the wheel to show if the buss-cable yoke comes out of alignment,right not the buss cable is centered between the scribe marks.I guess my question is should I untwist the one buss cable with the left twist and put the same amount of twist to the right or clockwise and the twist up the other buss cable (with no twist in it) the same direction.Would this get the draw weight back to the 58-60 lb range? Hope I' m making any sense I know it' s difficult trying to explain without a picture
