Rotate the turntable again by 120° to bring it
back to its initial position and lock the
rotating turntable by tightening the locking
button.
Lift up the turntable and remove it from its
central pivot.
Replace it with the new turntable, making
sure the interlocking elements are lined up.
For re-assembly, following the dismantling
procedure in the opposite order.
MAINTENANCE
Make sure the stringing machine is always turned off before cleaning
it or servicing one of its components. Unplug the power cable from
the mains socket.
Never wash the machine using water, a hose or high-pressure
cleaning.
BE CAREFUL:
never use corrosive products to clean your stringing machine.
Clean the housing of the machine regularly with alcohol at 90° only. Never use water,
detergents or acetone.
The circular turntable surface should be cleaned with alcohol every week to preserve the
optimal sliding capacities of the clamp-holder.
Remove the clamps, clean the clamp-holder rods and the inside of the clamp barrel with
a cloth soaked in alcohol, then lubricate them lightly with oil (sewing-machine type).
Replace the clamps on the clamp-holders and slide them about to spread the oil.
Clean the inside of the clamp teeth (depending on use, every day or once a week) with
a metallic brush, in order to avoid any clogging of the tungsten coating.
The Sensor pulling head does not require any particular servicing, apart from cleaning
once a year by passing a cloth soaked in alcohol between the articulated jaws of the
pulling unit.
Never oil the ball bearings on the pulling head.
