Default RE: limbs problem/ tiller

I think you should experiment and see for yourself. There is a limit to how far you can turn them out so find that out first.
Be careful about how you find that out. On most bows, if you back the limb bolts out too much the limbs are still under a good bit of tension when the bolt clears the hole. Won't hurt you, very much anyway, when the limb jumps off the riser, but it will cause you to soil yourself and you have to have a bow press to put the bow back together. Call the customer service dept at the manufacturer and ask how much the bolts can be backed out. I suspect they're already too far if the limbs have come unseated.

To be honest, I'd recommend you take the bow to the shop and let the tech reseat the limbs in the pockets.Closely watchevery thing he does. Once you've seen it done, you have a good idea of how to take care of the problem yourself if you ever run across the same situation again.
