STRINGING THE FRAME

Aramid ﬁ ber and metallic strings will generally string up tighter on the machine compared

to synthetic or natural gut strings. Therefore, when stringing with Aramid (Kevlar, Technora)

hybrid strings or metallic strings, we recommend setting tension 4-5 lbs. lower than you would

normally use for synthetic or natural gut strings.

CAUTION:

NEVER TENSION A STRING WITH YOUR FINGERS BETWEEN

THE STRING AND THE UPPER GRIPPER JAW AS SERIOUS INJURY COULD

RESULT IF YOUR FINGER IS CAUGHT BETWEEN THE STRING AND THE

UPPER JAW DURING TENSIONING.

SWITCH OR ANY BUTTON IN CASE OF EMERGENCY.

Setting the String Tension

String tensions may be entered and stored into

one of nine memory storage settings (See sec-

tion on Control panel Functions and features) by

using the tension index buttons. While tension

setting is entered, the value displayed will be

temporary until the "Enter" button is pressed to

store it in one of the nine permanent memory

settings.

Applying Tension

To apply tension, wrap the string clockwise

around the gripper drum and position the

string between the gripper jaws.

The string must pass over the upper gripper

jaw before being placed between the gripper

jaws, as the tension on the string provides

the clamping force to the gripper jaws.

Before applying tension, gently pull the string

until all slack is removed.

PUSH GRIPPER REVERSING

To tension a string, push the tension switch

or the foot pedal. The string gripper will ro-

tate and slowly apply tension to the string.

When the set tension has been attained, the

gripper will stop rotating and the display will

ﬂ ash. As the tensioned string stretches, the

gripper may rotate intermittently, maintaining

the set tension.

To release the string after clamping, push the

tension switch or foot pedal. If the string grip-

per does not release the string, depress and

hold the return button to release the string.

STRINGING THE FRAME

Clamping the First Main String

Secure the tensioned main string using the

remaining ﬁ xed clamp. Repeat the procedure

for all of the remaining main strings and

tie off following the racquet manufacturers

recommendations.

Follow the manufacturer's recommended

stringing pattern for one or two piece stringing.

This will determine the starting point for the

cross strings. If applicable, tie the ﬁ rst cross

string using an appropriate starting knot.

Weaving the Cross Strings

Weave the cross strings over and under the

main strings being careful to alternate the

weave direction of each consecutive cross

string so as to be opposite of the previously

installed cross string.

Completing the String Job

Once the ﬁ nal cross string is tensioned and

clamped, tie off at the appropriate hole speci-

ﬁ ed by the racquet manufacturer. Remove the

frame from the mounting system by loosening

the shoulder supports and frame supports.
