STRINGING THE FRAME
Setting Tension
The drop weight is of a two piece design.
When assembled, it will accommodate ten-
sions from 20 to 90 lbs. For tensions from 8
to 20 lbs., remove the 5mm bolt on the face of
the drop weight, and use the smaller portion
of the weight as described above.
Note: Tensions above 77lbs. require removal
of the drop weight bar end cap.
To set the stringing tension, loosen the
locking knob on the side of the drop weight.
Slide the weight in the appropriate direction
until the face
closest
to the string gripper is
indexed with the desired tension mark on
the tension bar.
Starting the Main Strings
To begin stringing the main strings, count the
number of holes at the throat of the frame,
which will determine the starting point. For
racquets with 4 or 8 holes at the throat,
the main strings will begin at the head. For
racquets with 2 or 6 holes at the throat, the
main strings will begin at the throat.
Thread the two ends of the string through
the two center grommet holes at the head
or throat as determined in the previous
step. Route the strings through the opposite
center holes.
