Adjusting the Winding Torques
The winding torque of a winder can be changed at the knurled ring of the respective slipping clutch. The numbers on
the knurled ring stand for the value of the winding torque:
•
1: Lowest winding torque
•
7: Highest winding torque
The current value is indicated by the number located at the positions of the two locking tabs.
