Can you adjust draw weight on crossbow?

Unfortunately, most crossbows don’t have adjustable draw weights. Crossbow limbs—and the bolts that connect them to the risers—are under much more pressure than on a vertical bow, and if you loosen any of the bolts to decrease the draw weight, they can’t hold the bow together as well anymore.
