Securing the Frame Shoulder Clamps
Lock the shoulder supports in position by
turning the knob at the base clockwise.
Repeat the adjustment procedure for the
remaining support post.
Re-tighten all of the frame supports in the
same order as before.
Do not overtighten any of the supports as
racquet damage may occur.
The supports should be tightened to the point
where the racquet frame will not move in the
mounting system when the handle is grasped and attempts are made to move it. Should any
supports lose contact with the frame while stringing, they should be re-tightened.
MOUNTING THE FRAME
Frame Shoulder Support Adjustment
The shoulder supports are designed to rotate
and can be adjusted to provide maximum
support to the racquet frame. Rotate the
support so that the pads contact the frame
squarely when the arms are closed against
the racquet. Should the shoulder supports
block string holes, adjust the frame support
slides to re-position the racquet between the
arms so the shoulder supports make contact
with the racquet between grommet holes.

PATHFINDER AWL
Once the awl is inserted, pull the handle of
the awl outward while holding the tip section
in place. This leaves the outer sheath in the
grommet hole. Insert the end of the string
into the outer sheath.
While holding the string, slowly pull the sheath
out of the grommet hole to leave the free end
of the string exposed.
The machine includes the path
fi
nder string-
ing awl which creates a pathway between
or around strings to make inserting a string
through blocked grommets easier and
quicker.
Insert the awl through the grommet hole in
the same manner as for traditional awls. The
Path
fi
nder awl must be in the closed position
before insertion.
