If after trying the method in steps 8.2 to 8.5, your product is still not evenly tensioned to your
satisfaction, you can manually adjust the tension of individual lines.*
8.7
To manually tension a line:
Feed back the particular line through the arm. Make sure tensioning knob is in the unlocked
position (
Fig 14
).
8.8
Loosen the knot securing the line (ensure the grommet doesn't fall out) and pull the line to
your desired tension.
8.9
Ensure knot is tied correctly to stop line pulling through arm when clothes are applied to the
line (
Fig 15
). Re-tie knot to re-secure line (
Fig 16
).
8.10
Repeat manual tensioning method for any other lines that require tension adjustment.
