STRING REEL HOLDER INSTALLATION
The string reel holder pin is an 8 mm rod with
threads on both ends, and flat surfaces
machined on one end. Thread the end of the
pin without the flat surfaces into the threaded
boss on the right side of the lower column
support. Using the M6 open end wrench
positioned on the flat surfaces, securely
tighten the pin to the lower column support.
The string reel holder can hold up to 5 reels
of string (depending on the size of the string
reel). Before placing the first reel on the pin,
slide two M8 washers over the pin and slide
them to the boss on the lower column sup-
port. After the first reel is placed onto the pin,
place two spacers between each reel to
provide enough space between reels and
allow them to turn freely without rubbing
against one another. (To provide a smooth
feed to the String Length Meter, place the
reels on the pin so the string spools off the
reel from the underside of the reel.)
After the last reel is installed, place the
remaining spacer(s) on the pin and attach
the threaded knob to the end of the pin.
