Instructions for Unpacking and Preparing for Assembly
The 8500 Els is shipped in two cartons, a large carton for the stringing machine and accessories and a smaller
carton for the post and base legs.
Please save the cartons and packing materials for possible shipments in
the future.
Gamma Sports cannot be responsible for machines that are not returned, shipped in their original,
undamaged packaging. The tools you will need to assemble the 8500 Els are provided with the machine. Due to
the weight of the tensioner unit, you may need the assistance of someone to help lift the tensioner unit out of the
carton.
Once the cartons are opened, remove all inner cartons and check to be sure that all parts are present and
accounted for.
