Attention : the crosses must be done in staggered rows. This means if you put the
string OVER the main for the cross 1, your cross 2 must go UNDER the same
main !
•
Continue stringing the crosses of your racquet until the last cross string by putting
each string under tension and clamping each tightened string.
•
After your last cross, you can do your final knot (
see part C below
).
B.
Stringing with 4 knots
To string with four knots, cut your string into two parts in order to have two pieces of 6
metres : one will be used for the mains and the other for the crosses.
B.1.
The mains
La réalisation des montants pour corder en quatre nœuds est la même que pour la
méthode en deux nœuds en dehors de trois exceptions :
•
If your racquet possesses a « Short Side », it is not necessary to take this
information into account for the mains.
•
It is not necessary to calculate the length of the mains. You can simply split the
12 metre string in half, obtaining two 6 metre pieces.
•
A knot is to be completed on each side once the mains are completed
(
see
part C below
)
.
B.2.
The crosses
To complete your crosses with 4 knots, the same procedure for the 2 knots method is to
be followed, except there is one exception :
•
Your crosses will be completed with a second piece of 6 metres. You can directly
string your cross and leave extra string on one side in order to tighten it later
(prepare enough string to be able to tighten it with the tension mecanism).
Next,
this string should be blocked thanks to the departing clamp (not included
with the CB3 stringing machine) until you finish all of your crosses. Here
are the references on the Tennispro.eu website
Once your knot is tied on the bottom, you can tighten the first cross and tie off
your last knot.
Attention : if your racquet possesses a « Short Side », you need to respect this
information and put the extra piece of string on the right side.
