MOUNTING  THE  FRAME

Frame Shoulder Support Adjustment

Being  sure  the  shoulder  supports  are  free  to 

swivel in their mountings, simultaneously rotate 

the shoulder support adjustment knobs clockwise 

until both shoulder supports gently and squarely 

contact the frame.

Adjusting the Frame Support Posts

Loosen the lock bolts of the frame support 

posts and space them apart with the frame 

support slides separated by the approximate 

length of the racquet head. Although it is not 

required, it is good practice to center the sup-

port posts on the turntable. Lock one of the 

posts in position by tightening the lock bolt and 

position the other post until the frame support 

slide is positioned near the inside surface of 

the racquet frame. Securely tighten the lock 

bolt of the second support post.

Caution

: To avoid racquet damage, the center posts should not contact the racquet prior to 

locking down the support posts.

Tightening the Frame Supports

Tighten the Frame Support Slides by turn-

ing  the  adjustment  knob  clockwise  until 

snug against the racquet frame and slight 

resistance is felt.

Caution: 

Overtightening the Center Supports 

will stretch the head of the racquet and could 

cause racquet damage.
