gap between the clamp jaws as per the instructions on page 14.

STRINGING THE FRAME

Fixed Clamp Operation

The fixed clamps supplied with your GAMMA

7000Es are of a dual action design. The

string clamp and the clamp base operate

independently of one another.

To clamp a string, lift the clamp head and

place the string between the jaws. Depress

the clamp head lever to secure the string.

The clamping pressure applied to the string

should be adjusted to provide sufficient pres-

sure to secure the string when subjected to

the desired pulling tension. The diamond

coated gripper plates provide for increased

Fixed Clamp Operation

Rotate the winged lock knob clockwise to

secure the clamp base to the turntable.

Reverse the clamping procedure to unlock

the string clamp.

The winged lock knob should be tightened

enough to prevent clamp base slippage on

the turntable, when the desired tension is

placed on the string. To go from the loose

position to the clamped position and back,

generally requires about 1/2 to 3/4 quarters

of a turn. Although when stringing at ex-

tremely high tensions, additional tightness

String Gripper Operation

To insert the string in the split drum string

gripper, wrap the free end of the string

clockwise around the gripper drum and po-

sition the string between the gripper jaws as

shown in the illustration.

The string must pass over the top half of the

gripper before being placed between the

diamond coated plates of the upper and

lower gripper jaws. Excessive slack in the

string should be removed before applying

tension. As the drum turns and applies ten-

sion to the string, the upper jaw is forced

down to clamp the string between the jaws.
