CALIBRATION

Tension Calibration Procedure

Each  stringing  machine  has  been 

checked and calibrated at the factory 

using accurate load sensing devices 

to ensure that the machine pulls at 

the correct tension. However, if you 

suspect that your machine may not 

be pulling at the correct tension you 

can  check  the  pulling  tension  with 

a  calibrator  and  make  adjustments 

if needed.

Most tension calibrators (such as a Gamma Tension Calibrator) function by clamping off the 

string attached to one the end of the calibrator and applying tension to the string located on 

the opposite end of the calibrator. The tension measured by the calibrator will then display 

the tension being applied to the calibrator by the machine.  If the calibrator and tensioner do 

not match then you can adjust the tensioner as follows:    
(1) Turn the machine off and restart the machine while holding down the Test

 

button until 

the count down is complete.  22 lbs should appear on the display.  (2) Apply tension to the 

calibrator.  (3) If the tension reading on the calibrator does not match the tension displayed on 

the machine, use the tension indexing buttons to match the display to the calibrator reading 

and press the Enter/Clear button (4) Release the tension applied to the calibrator and 44 lbs 

should appear on the display. (5) Repeat steps #2-#4 for 44, 66 & 88lbs.  (6) After completing 

the adjustment at 88lbs the display will show 00 lbs.  (7) Restart the machine without holding 

any buttons and the calibration adjustment will be complete.

Switching the Buzzer Off and On

The stringing machine is equipped with a buzzer that sounds when any key or button is 

pressed or when there is a problem with some function of the machine.  The buzzer can be 

disabled if desired for normal keypad entries. 

To disable the buzzer, turn the machine on and while the display is counting down from 9 to 

0, press and hold the Enter/Clear button for at least 5 seconds.  The buzzer will be disabled 

and will remain disabled. It can be enabled again by following the same steps listed above.

Note:

 Even when disabled, the buzzer will sound if the tensioner has a problem and the 

machine requires attention. This is meant to alert the user of a problem, and can not be 

disabled.
