Adjustment
Screw
Gripper Plate Spacing Adjustment
The parallel plates of the string gripper are adjust-
able to accommodate varying string gauges and
types of string. If the string slips through the grip-
per plates while pulling tension, rotate the gripper
adjustment screw counter-clockwise. If the string
is damaged while pulling tension, rotate the grip-
per adjustment screw clockwise. The gripper is
properly adjusted when there is enough pressure to
securely hold the string without causing damage to
the string. If you move the gripper to the right hand
end of the track it is easier to access the screw.
